Editor’s Note: Last year, Michael and Nicole Borrell began reviewing Lebanon Valley’s restaurants and eating attractions as the Lebanon Valley Food Critics. Since then, the couple has aimed to offer unbiased reviews of the eating and drinking establishments the Lebanon Valley has to offer. LebTown is pleased to be partnering with LVFC to share these reviews with our readers. Bon appétit!

Welcome to the first season of our highly anticipated Lebanon Valley “Wing Wars.” Eight entrants from four regions of the Valley will compete, bracket style, to be declared the winner of Best Wing in The Valley.

Our judgement will be based upon several factors including: wing sauce/rub flavor, size of wing, how they’re cooked, presentation, and critic impression.

The first matchup in round two pits the winner of the Central Region (Red Headed League Public House) vs. the winner of the West Region (Corvette Bar & Grille).

The Red Headed League offers a wing night special on Thursdays, with a small order for $5 and a large order for $9. The Corvette does not have a current wing special.

RHL wings are fall-off-the-bone tender from being smoked first and then fried. Each time we visit, the wings are cooked to perfection. The hot sauce flavors lack the sting of heat and RHL is limited in the sauces available. They do make their own ranch to accompany your order.

The Corvette features a very large wing that is loaded with sauce. These wings were the most expensive of the wings we tried, $18, but you get enough to fill you up. Given the large size, it is hard to get that good crispy exterior.

Red Headed League wins this round!
