Not positive how they compare in price to Sidelines in Millvale (though being familiar with BSB I gotta think they're less expensive) but they have amazing wings.

While I lived for wing nights years ago it's getting to be a bit ridiculous these days. I've opted for either making my own at home or when I don't want to bother with frying, I just cut chicken breasts up into little chunks and toss them in oil, a bit of seasoning and bake them in the oven on one of those crisper trays. It's just an elevated grate on top of a sheet tray. Toss or dip them in whatever sauces you want and it's a wonderful substitute. Probably a bit healthier too. No bones, no fucking around trying to suck the meat off the bones. Just shovel em in!

Primantis has 79cent wings every Sunday and a local bar to me does 69cent wing night. That’s pretty much the only time I ever get wings anymore. It sucks because I used to love ordering wings and trying different sauces but it’s just not worth it anymore

If you're in the gibsonia area Messina's Pizza on middle road has reasonably priced wings and they are good. Although a few years ago they were one of the last places that sold whole wings as "a wing" meaning you used to get 2 dozen (wing + drum + tip) per each.

My go to now has been my turkey fryer or I just bake hunks of breast meat at home and sauce em up. It's obviously more work than going out or ordering in but at these prices it's just not worth the cost of paying what is creeping into steak prices. I'm not paying $20/lb for chicken scraps.
