Joe and Brandy Word, of Word Enterprises, LLC, opened the new location at 5187 Hinkleville Road, Suite I in the Olivet Church Crossings Shopping Center (Kohl’s shopping center).
“I first tried Wingstop while visiting my sister in Memphis,” said Joe Word. “I had never tried wings that fresh and flavorful before and knew that I needed to bring Wingstop to Paducah. We’ve just opened our doors and have already had a tremendous response to our cooked-to-order wings and freshly prepared side dishes. Our single focus is wings and it shows.”
The Paducah location will also be serving Wingstop’s new 100 percent, all-white meat chicken breast boneless wings. Wingstop selected the new wings, which feature a proprietary batter and breading recipe along with marinated breast meat, after extensive research into the consumer market for chicken products. The boneless wings are available in any of Wingstop’s nine proprietary wing flavors or unsauced with your choice of dipping sauces.
“Brandy and I are also putting a lot of attention on catering events such as, office parties, sports gatherings and family get-togethers,” continued Word. “Our nine wing flavors, the new boneless wings and our assortment of side dishes are sure to be crowd pleasers.”
The new Wingstop is open from 11 a.m. to midnight seven days a week. Orders can be phoned in to the new location at (270) 415-9246.
Wingstop offers restaurants with a nostalgic, aviation-themed atmosphere where the sole focus is on chicken wings. The chain features nine proprietary wing flavors, including Original Hot, Cajun, Atomic, Mild, Teriyaki, Lemon Pepper, Hawaiian, Garlic Parmesan, and our brand new Hickory Smoked BBQ. The wings are always made-to-order and served steaming hot. Customers also choose from homemade side dishes: fresh-cut seasoned fries, bourbon baked beans, pearl potato salad, creamy cole slaw, vegetable sticks, rolls and assorted dipping sauces.
Wingstop has more than 400 restaurants either open or under development in 25 states and consistently tops industry growth rankings. Wingstop was chosen Festival Favorite Restaurant at the 2005 National Buffalo Wing Festival and their Cajun sauce took first place honors for the Best Creative Spicy Sauce in the festival’s blind taste test. In July 2005, Wingstop ranked number 13 in Restaurant Business’ Top 50 Growth Chains (ranked by percentage increase in units) and was ranked the number one chicken wing chain by Entrepreneur magazine in 2004. Troy Aikman, former Dallas Cowboy and three-time Super Bowl champion, signed on as the chain’s national spokesman in 2003.
