The wingers sound good. I think they can even handle a little bit of burning and still be tasty.
@Soupe du jour The oven is maybe 10 feet from the detector. Maybe less. My oven is really clean. It's like it's new- both inside and out. I don't even see smoke when the detector goes off. I think maybe it's the broiler but then again maybe its just the oven itself. I know that my chicken wings burnt, but that's when I put them in with the broiler on and they burned. This is when I was trying to get the alarm to quit going off- I left them under the broiler too long and they burned. The alarm was going off before I turned the broiler on. I just don't think the oven is dirty. It LOOKS clean, but the broiler could smoke I guess. I might buy an oven thermometer because I think it runs hotter than what it's set to. Yes, the wings were still good a little burned. They were cooked just right except for the burned part but that made them crispy. (You're supposed to use baking powder to get them to crisp up.)
