Boneless Wings – Taking The Hassle Out Of Fast Dining

When you think of chicken wings you traditionally think of small cuts of chicken on the bone, ready to be picked up and eaten straight off the plate or platter, creating a delicious mess in the process! However, these Boneless Chicken Wings deliver all the great taste, flavour and appeal of a traditional chicken wing, but reduce both waste and the eventual pile up of bones on the plate in the build-up.

These Boneless Chicken Wings feature delicious whole muscle thigh meat, which gives them the closest possible taste and texture profile to a traditional bone-in wing without the actual bone in the middle!

Each wing is around 40g in weight, and has been shaped to look like the inner wing of the bird, traditionally known as the Wingett. The wings also feature the signature Meadow Vale Crunchy Coating that delivers a delicious wholesome crunch in every bite, adding to the overall satisfaction when ordering the wings.

As with every Meadow Vale coated product these Crunchy Chicken Wings are perfect for the deep fryer, allowing for a quick cook time from frozen, ensuring all caterers that use the wings will be able to serve up a treat in as little as 5 minutes.

Meadow Vale Wings In Flight!

The rise of Chicken Wings in the Meadow Vale chicken arsenal is testament to their popularity in the current food trends landscape, and our commitment to providing the very best innovative chicken products for the UK foodservice industry.

The Wings category as a whole has seen unrivalled growth within the business, with sales up over 43% over the last year++. Traditionally seen as a sidekick to traditional fried chicken meals, it’s only in the last decade or so that Chicken Wings have truly taken the industry by storm, and that trend has led to growth in the range.

This growth is in part down to the introduction of new and exciting lines like the Meadow Vale Crunchy Chicken Wings and the Meadow Vale Hot & Spicy Coated Chicken Wings, as well as the traditional uncoated Meadow Vale BBQ Wings and Hot & Spicy Wings.

FUN FACT: Whilst the origins of classic chicken wings can be traced back to ancient times, the much-loved Buffalo style Wings are believed to have been invented in 1964 at a bar in Buffalo, New York State!+++

Why Choose Wings?

With the spotlight still fully on UK economy growth, budgets remain tight for the average British consumer, meaning the need for high value for money items on menus has never been greater. Chicken Wings provide that great quality tasting meat dish as well as excellent value for money, as they are so diverse and can be used for a wide range of dishes on menus.

The Crunchy Coating on the Meadow Vale Boneless Wings makes them perfect for restaurants and takeaways looking to add their own signature flavours to the wings as the sauces will fully coat the outside of the wing without penetrating through and making the meat soggy.

This perfect blend of crunch, bite, saucy flavour and succulent chicken thigh meat allows for an all-round positive experience. In order to maximise profitability, make sure you are tuned in to the most on-trend flavour offerings such as Hot Honey, Korean BBQ and Truffle & Parmesan to name just a few.

Whether you serve them up as a small starter or side dish, or on a banquet platter for friends and families to enjoy, the option for customers to customise their wing offering will provide a real hit for your business, and something that will see your Meadow Vale Wings offering fly off the menu!

Updating Your Menu

Updating your menu for winter is essential, with QSRs often seeing a seasonal spike in footfall over the festive period. Based on last year’s trends, it’s likely we’ll see a similar appetite for dining out this festive period, meaning menu modifications will lead to increased profits.

In 2024, half of Brits said they planned to visit a pub or restaurant over the festive period, and a striking 85% of consumers intended to dine out. *

With festive dining firmly established as a seasonal tradition, there’s every reason to expect a similar, if not stronger, turnout this year. Introducing products like crispy chicken fillets and boneless wings not only taps into comfort food cravings but also helps drive repeat visits and boost seasonal sales.
