Firstly, you need to set yourself a budget. Chicken wings are so cheap in comparison to other meat and chicken cuts, and they're great for portion control, so you can roughly estimate 4 - 5 chicken wings per person, plus any sides, such as salads and dips which will also be budget-friendly. I guess the most expensive items for your party will be the ice cool beers and any wine if you choose to serve alcohol at your chicken wings party. So once you've worked out how many people you will be feeding, you need to have a think about if there will be children at your chicken wings party. I say this because some of the chicken wings recipes we have for you are hot ones, so you will need to make sure you serve some kid-friendly chicken wings for those who can't take hot food. You'll need to arrange to get some disposable serving plates, forks and spoons etc, unless you are planning on doing the washing up or you have very helpful teenagers who will jump at the chance of washing all the dishes at the end of your party! (I am guessing disposable will be the most popular option!). You need to make sure you have plenty of charcoal if you're grilling, and firelighters too if you use those for your BBQ's and containers to put the cooked chicken wings in once they're ready.
