There are wings, and then there are wings. Ryan Fey and Mark Anderson, aka The Grill Dads, know the difference, and after trying their recipe for their "Better Than Buffalo" wings, you will, too.

The Grill Dads' new cookbook, "The Best Grilling Cookbook Ever Written by Two Idiots," offers guidance on cooking on the grill — with myriad recipes that encapsulate the duo's signature refined-yet-fun style. "We're not this elitist kind of cookbook type of crew. We're... showing you how to make elevated dishes on the grill," Fey told Mashed in an exclusive interview. He added: "And by the way, our stuff is not basic ... We have twists on everything in our own way."

Take the book's take on wings, shared with Mashed exclusively. Fey and Anderson are quick to point out that Buffalo wings around the country "are soggy, sad, and fried in the same oil as the fish and chips. Gross." You know what's not gross? Treating your chicken to a dry brine, then a smoking, then a char on the grill, then a quick fry for super crispy skin. Finally, the wings get dressed in a hot honey sauce ("the perfect combo of sweet and heat") and are served alongside a homemade ranch crema for dipping. Have some (read: many) napkins at the ready and dive in.
