There’s an element of surprise when you order wings at The Potluck, a 24/7 trailer in South Austin serving wings, po’boys, and fries. The wings are huge, with a very fine breading that adds a little extra crunch. While a few of the options like “pineapple sunrise” or “supreme sriracha” give hints about the flavors, most of the wings have names like “hot girl” or “star dust” with emoji descriptors that only offer a vague indicator. Our favorite is the “loose cannon,” topped with a thick dusting of (probably) cajun and ranch seasonings. If you’re OK with just a little mystery, tell them what you like—spice level, and wet or dry—then sit back and enjoy a surprise at any hour of the day.
