Croix Valley Mango Habanero Dry Wings

I didn’t have to make dry wings. I could’ve seasoned them and then sauced them. But I’m a huge fan of dry wings and Croix Valley Mango Habanero Dry Wings are some of the best I’ve ever had. All I had to do was cook up a batch of wings and toss them in the seasoning and enjoy a crazy good lunch. Up first, I got the heat. And a good bit of it too. Then that spiciness took a back seat and up came the tropical fruitiness of mango. Heck no, I couldn’t get enough! These wings did not last at all!

I knew these Croix Valley Mango Habanero Dry Wings would be great as soon as I opened the seasoning pouch. It’s always good to get a little taste the first time you use a rub or a sauce. Without that you might use too much. You can always add more, but it’s hard to use less once you’ve already seasoned your wings!

Also try this rub on shrimp.

Croix Valley Hickory Barbecue Dry Wings

My wife said that her first bite of these Croix Valley Hickory Barbecue Dry Wings made her think of her favorite BBQ potato chips. There’s no mistaking the fantastic flavor of this seasoning. It’s really good and very well balanced. If you’re looking for the flavor of BBQ chicken (or really good BBQ chips!) you’re in luck. We both enjoyed the heck out of these wings.

I keep my Croix Valley hickory barbecue dry wings simple. I cook them first, and usually without any seasoning on them. I’ll add a bit of salt if I’m cooking them on a deep fryer or grill. But, I don’t add anything else, specially not something that might burn (like seasonings that contain sugar).

After the wings are done, and while they’re still hot and a bit oily, I toss them in seasoning. That’s when the wings and the seasoning are going to come together the best. If you wait until the wings cool the seasoning won’t stick as well. Also, make sure you use a quality seasoning.
