Get ready, New York State Fair fans — there’s a new food vendor rolling into Restaurant Row that’s about to bring some serious flavor and heat this year.

Straight from North Carolina, Integrity BBQ teams up with Lady K’s Homemade Lemonade to serve up bold eats and refreshing drinks from August 20 through September 1.

Jumbo Deep Fried Turkey Wings

The star of the show? Jumbo deep-fried turkey wings with flavor options for every taste bud — whether you like it classic or fiery, there’s something for you.

Choose from Honey BBQ, Sweet & Spicy, Buffalo, Lemon Pepper dry rub, Hot Honey, and even a Double Heat combo if you’re feeling brave. There’s also plenty of creative mixes like Hot Honey with Ranch Dry Rub or Buffalo with Lemon Pepper. And if you’re a purist, there’s always the regular no-sauce option.
