  Black market for chicken wings?
context: She took ~11,000 cases of chicken wings over a span of 19 months. >
  
  I mean, that's almost 20 cases of wings PER DAY, every day, for those 19 months. WTF? How big were these cases? >
  
  My question as well, seeing as 1.5 million dollars worth would put each case at about $136, must have been a lot of chicken. >
  
  That's about right, price wise. I think our store is paying ~$165 per case of bone in wings. >
  
  I'm curious how big your cases are. My dad runs a bar and his wings were in the $160 range right after bars started getting reopened after COVID lockdowns but right now they are in the $45 per case. He said wings haven't been this cheap since the mid-2000s. Right now the problem is the oil to cook them in has increased about 3x so even though the chicken is cheap, he still can't do 50c wing nights again just yet.
  EDIT: Ours are 40lb cases. He buys them from GFS. >
  
  Would a commercial air fryer work?
  Not to get all airfryer cult but I'm curious if it would let him cook at scale at lower cost per item.
  Basically an Oven with a basket inside and it doesn't involve grease at all. >
  
  I think a commercial air fryer would just be a convection oven since I'm pretty sure that's all an air fryer is but minturerized >
  
  Technically an impingement oven. A lot more airflow. Uses more than 2x the wattage.
