  6. Remove the cooked wings and drain them well on paper towels.
  7. Add the remaining wings to the oil and cook for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  8. Remove the second batch of wings and drain well.
  9. Melt the butter in a saucepan and stir in the Louisiana hot sauce and white vinegar.
  10. Place the fried chicken wings on a warm serving platter and pour the butter mixture over them, tossing to coat evenly.
