For James Parker, owner of Big Daddy's Homeplate Barbeque in Haverstraw, the rising chicken prices have forced him to raise prices of wings. "We're so small every dime counts," Parker said. "Thank God the community is doing well but we need the support in order to make it. So far it's been looking up, but trying to get out of the hole COVID put us in and now we're dealing with this, it's unbelievable." Parker knows the community is aware of the rising cost and added that they haven't seen an increased demand in wings. "We're about at our average wing customers," Parker said. "For the community, come out and support as much as possible."
