Nah, I just splash them down generously and make sure every part gets wet then I pour off all the vinegar and add my seasoning while the wings are still damp. I guess the bonus here is that not only do the spices stick but they beak down fairly quick and seem to soak in better during the 5 hour chillin on the bag.Gizmo wrote: Do you leave the bird in cider vinegar for 5 hours?

Stick with your hour soak limit, with vinegar there can be too much of a good thing. You will totally change the texture of your food with a 12 hour soak. Maybe go crazy and try garlic vinegar next timeFATNECK wrote:I can only image if you soak them overnight and then spice them a few hours before you need them.
