WINSTON-SALEM, NC, September 22, 2010 (Press-News.org) It took nine years for East Coast Wings & Grill to finally attend the National Buffalo Wing Festival, but the wait paid off as the North Carolina-based chain took home top prizes in two of the annual eventâEUR s more popular competitions.

Held over Labor Day Weekend in the namesakeâEUR s birthplace, Buffalo, NY, the 9th annual festival attracted an estimated 71,000 visitors and featured a potpourri of local and national restaurants competing in various categories, including the highly touted âEURœbest wingâEUR category, which rates sauces ranging from traditional hot, traditional X-hot, creative spicy, creative barbeque and traditional medium.

East Coast Wings & Grill submitted recipes in the creative spicy, traditional and sweet sauce categories, taking first place for its traditional hot sauce and second prize in the creative spicy category with its Santa Fe Inferno wing. Contestants were judged solely based on taste by 12 blindfolded judges.

âEURœBeing a first time contestant, we specifically wanted to place entries in categories that would allow us to compete with some of the other brand giants in the industry,âEUR said Sam Ballas, CEO of East Coast Wings & Grill. âEURœWe couldnâEUR t be more pleased about our showing at the festival and truly establishing ourselves as one of the premier concepts in the industry.âEUR
