Rinse the chicken wings under cold water, then pat them dry with paper towels. If the wings are whole, use a sharp knife to separate the drumettes and wingettes. Discard the wing tips or save them for making stock.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss the chicken wings in the bowl until evenly coated with the flour mixture. Shake off any excess flour.
Arrange the coated wings in a single layer on a baking sheet and refrigerate uncovered for 1 hour to help the coating adhere.
In a large, deep skillet or a Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C). Use a kitchen thermometer to monitor the oil temperature for best results.
Carefully add the chicken wings to the hot oil in small batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry the wings for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature should read 165°F/74°C). Remove the wings with a slotted spoon and set them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined tray to drain excess oil.
While the wings are frying, prepare the Buffalo sauce. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Stir in the hot sauce, white vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne pepper, and black pepper. Continue to stir until the sauce is smooth and heated through. Remove from heat.
Place the cooked wings in a large mixing bowl. Pour the warm Buffalo sauce over the wings and toss until evenly coated.
Transfer the Buffalo wings to a serving platter. Garnish with celery sticks on the side and serve with blue cheese dressing for dipping.
