Mink River Basin Supper Club

Hi to All and Happy St.Patricks day to yea!! ... The Wingmen are rested and ready to get back to work at least I am. Paul still has some time on his butchered and scared up hands, But he can tell you more bout that later. Our poor 4seasons VB Team is all but in a coma, We managed to limp into a second place tie with the other Northern Door team which put us in a good spot for the tournament play offs. Unfortunately we had to forfeit the first match. We only had one healthy player Rachael, but Tom showed up all bashed up from a bike wreck in Mex. Bonnie recovering from a tore calf showed up being the Spartans that they are. Dave said he would play if we need him, he just had quadruple bypass heart surgery, Paul surgery on his wrist me with a fused ankle but we still have a chance for 3rd. So we continue da best we can. Which happens to be the slogan for our next review "Giv'er at the River" The locals northern hot spot the Mink River Basin, Which we just call TheMink.!
We have not worked for a while so that was a little different not shaking off the saw dust and shutten down the chipper, having that big working outside gota get to those wings appetite, but still the lucky sob that i am gets to satisfy that primal urge to rip into those hot, spicy and really saucy wings and some of the coldest, ice on the top and a tint of bit-O-the Green for St.Patricks day Beer's that I have had any where on the peninsula!!

We sat at one of the tables off to the side of the bar and started with a couple bloody's n chasers which Linden got them out to us pretty fast in spite of a pretty busy bar. It was busy at first about 3:30 when we got there then it thinned out and we started with a doz of the Hot ones. Linden came back with them we needed something to compare too so we ordered a doz reg Hot Wings. I was surprised not to find any drumsticks in the first batch and was wondering if it was a fluke or not, Sure enough not a drummy to be had in the next batch either. I didn't find out why that is, the wing man prefers the wings anyways, But I like some meat on the legs with some grille marks on the hot sauce that has some bite to it!! The second batch was almost as hot as the Hot ones, not much of a difference in heat but more sauce on the reg ones , very tasty.!!

Paul -- It seems like forever since the 2wingmen journeyed off for a critique. However, you can only go on so many vacations before you end up back in your hometown of Door County!! Let the wing eating begin...We started out with a terrific bloody mary at the Mink River Basin served by Linden the Waiter/owner of the Basin. A order of hot wings and mild wings were on the way. We started off with the hot ones and by the appearance alone, i knew what was to come. The Mink Rivers hot wings were a touch hotter than the uff-da's of Northern Grill, Reclaiming the #1 hottest wings to date!!! The hot wings were polished off just in time for the new plate of mild wings. These were exactly what i needed after downing my bloody mary, chaser, and coke... Don't get me wrong, the mild still had a kick but not the after affects of the hot. Linden and the Mink River definitely have some hot wings to be reckoned with!!! And i'll be in later for that complimentary shot that was offered....
