Fresh vs frozen wings in my Cosori, not even close

I did a side by side last Saturday with 2 pounds of wings, one batch fresh from the local butcher, one batch frozen from Costco. Same 400 degrees, same 25 minutes, same sauce after. The fresh ones came out crispy on the outside and juicy inside, the frozen ones were chewy and had that watery steamed texture no matter what I did. I even let the frozen ones sit for 10 extra minutes and they still didn't crisp up. Has anyone else noticed this big of a difference, or am I doing something wrong with the frozen ones?

Totally feel you on this one, I had the exact same letdown with my air fryer last month. The frozen ones always end up with that sad, soggy skin no matter how long I crank the heat, it's like they release too much water. Stick with the fresh ones or pat the frozen ones super dry and maybe add a little baking powder to the rub, that's the only way I got anywhere close to crispy.
