I took a few days break from spicy wings. I’m back now. Thanks to these The Dirty Buffalo Hot Honey wings. Basically a sweet Buffalo-style sauce, this sauce holds on to your wings, tingles your tongue and makes you sweat a bit. With just the right amount of sweetness, you won’t confused these with dessert wings. They bring the heat and sweet.

I Went With Air Fryer Wings. Again…
I used my air fryer to make my standard batch of air fryer wings then sauced them well. You can make The Dirty Buffalo Hot Honey wings any way you want. Deep fried. Baked. Air fried. Convention oven. Grilled. It doesn’t really matter. And honestly, you could make yourself a good old crispy fried chicken sandwich too and pour this sauce all over it. This sauce is great on anything. Use it as a dipping sauce for chicken nuggets. Deep-fried onion rings. Anything you got laying around, grab it. Sauce it or dip it. And wait for a nice sweet kick to follow!
