Eight flavors to choose from
The menu at Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza lists eight flavors for the roasted wings, covering mild butter-style coats, classic tangy options, and hotter tosses. Anthony's coal fired pizza and wings are built to share the table.
Split two flavors in one order
Mild table
Butter-style and gentle coats that suit kids and mixed groups.
Classic tang
Tangy tosses that stay bright next to a cheese pie.
Garlic forward
Stronger garlic coats that pair best with a plain pizza.
Heat forward
Hottest tosses — save for a plainer pie or on their own.
How to split
Split two flavors in one order. Ask which run drier, which run saucier.
From the oven
Coal-fire-roasted, not fried
Rendered edges from coal heat, juicy center from fresh prep.
Skin and smoke
Rendered edges, juicy center
These wings roast in the heat of the coal-fired setup at Anthony's coal fired rather than a fryer basket. The skin sets and browns while the meat stays juicy, with a light smoky background from the oven. You will not get the bubbled crunch of breaded fried wings. Expect a cleaner bite with rendered edges.
Prep
Fresh, never frozen
The current menu describes the wings as fresh, never frozen. That matters for texture, since fresh wings roast more evenly and hold sauce without turning soggy. Availability follows daily prep. If a flavor runs out late in the evening, the kitchen will usually steer you to a close second.
At 900°F
High coal heat renders fa fast, so sauce clings without soggy breading.
Order wings first — they land while the pie finishes.
At the table
How they are served
Wings arrive hot on a tray meant for sharing, with focaccia bread available upon request.
The tray
The bread is useful for catching sauce and for rounding out a light order. Grab extra napkins at the start in a busy Florida dining room.
Takeout
For takeout, open the container briefly to release steam so the skin stays firmer on the drive home.
First course
Wings land while your pizza is still in the 900-degree oven — a natural first course, especially for tables with kids.
Pairing
Pairing wings with crust
Charred crust and sharp Pecorino Romano already bring salt and smoke. Balance them with a brighter or milder wing flavor rather than stacking heat on heat. A tangy wing next to a classic cheese pizza from Anthony coal fired pizza keeps each bite distinct.
Save the hottest toss for a plainer pie or for eating on its own. A single order bridges the gap without filling everyone before the pie arrives. If your pizza is delayed during a rush, a second small wing order holds the table better than bread alone.
Groups
Family and group ordering
One large wing order serves three to four people as an appetizer when pizza follows. For a party of six in Miami Lakes or Pinecrest, order two flavors across two trays to avoid arguments.
Keep one tray mild for kids and let adults take the bolder flavor. Add focaccia to stretch the share. ACFP regulars often put Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza and wings in the middle and let everyone reach.

Takeout notes for wings
Roasted wings travel better than thin pizza because there is no crisp base to steam. Still, keep the lid cracked for the first minute, then close for the drive. Reheat leftovers in a hot oven for five to seven minutes rather than a microwave. That brings back the roasted edge without drying the meat.
