Cajun Butter Wings

These Cajun butter wings take a little more effort than some wings to prepare. But, oh me, are they ever worth every single minute. First you fry the wings until they are mostly done. Then you toss them in a super yummy super easy sauce. Yeah, it’s just butter and Cajun seasoning. But that’s two of my favorite things. Bake the wings a bit. Add more butter sauce. Bake some more until the wings are done and skin is just nice and crispy. Then you devour them. And you lick your fingers. A lot.

Cajun Butter Wings

You can make the Cajun spice mix for these Cajun Butter wings using the recipe below. Or you can just grab some pre-made stuff out of the pantry, such as Slap Ya Mama brand. Me, I love Cajun seasoning flavors, so I use a bit extra. To me these wings are kinda like Cajun buttered shrimp, and I can eat a ton of those too!

I really liked the texture of these wings. If you’re in a hurry you could just deep fry them and toss them in the toss. But I think the baking and extra basting with the sauce adds a whole lot more flavor.

Market District Creamy Garlic Parmesan and Chili Wings

“Decidedly different”. I don’t even usually words like that. I don’t know where they even came from, but they were the first words out of my mouth when I tried some Market District Creamy Garlic Parmesan and Chili wings.

Definitely different

Admittedly, I was expecting the usual garlicky Parmesan wing sauce that borders on being a salad dressing. That’s not what I got. I got a whole heck of a lot more. This is easily one of my favorite non-Buffalo wing sauces of all time. The garlic and Parmesan are tame, not overwhelming. The sauce has just the right consistency. Not too thick. Not too thin. And a little fantastic pepper flavor. Thank you Market District!

Market District Creamy Garlic Parmesan and Chili Wings

This is not an Alabama BBQ sauce

I’d eat these Market District creamy garlic Parmesan and chili wings all day long. I really love the addiction of a red pepper to this sauce. It so makes it different than the usual creamy white wing sauces. This sauce stands above the crowd. Way above it.

This is not an Alabama white sauce, despite appearances to the contrary!

Frank’s RedHot Stingin’ Honey Garlic Dry Wings

Frank’s RedHot Stingin’ Honey Garlic Dry Wings absolutely hit the spot. These are what dry wings are meant to be. Of course, you can use the seasoning on any wings, sauced or dried, but I highly recommend you try them dry first. You’ll get wonderful garlic flavor and lots of it. There’s not hunting for garlic here. Along comes just a little sweetness. Not a lot. And just the right amount of spicy tingle. Again, not a lot, but you’ll notice. Skip the dipping sauce, these dry wings are perfect without the need for anything else.

Frank's RedHot Stingin' Honey Garlic Dry Wings

I am not shy with the seasoning when it comes time to make my Frank’s RedHot Stingin’ Honey Garlic Dry Wings. Hot out of the fryer (or oven, or off the grill, it doesn’t matter!), into a bowl, and it’s time to get to seasoning. A few good shakes all over, and give the wings a good toss. Then, usually, some more seasoning and another toss! Time to eat!

Working at Frank’s RedHot has to be a dream job!

Louisiana Brand The Original Wings

I’ve been a card-carrying member of the Louisiana-Brand hot sauce lover’s club for a long time. I love the flavor and I love the heat level. It’s just a great sauce. That’s why when I saw an ad for their new wing sauce pop up on my Facebook feed, I jumped all over it. I didn’t hesitate. What if they sold out? What if I have to wait months? Fear and passion drove me to order a few bottles. And oh boy. Louisiana Brand The Original wings sauce is gooooood! Just like the hot sauce, great flavor, great heat.

Louisiana Brand The Original Wings

I would call the heat level of Louisiana Brand The Original Wings sauce to be fairly middle-of-the-road spicy. Not too spicy, but noticeable. The heat does not drown out the fantastic pepper flavors, and that’s a major win in my book. This is what a proper wing sauce should be.

Perdue Hot ‘N Spicy Crispy Air Fryer Wings

Perdue Hot ‘N Spicy Crispy Air Fryer wings really made me happy. I’m not usually impressed with frozen, prepared wings. They’re usually scrawny and tasteless. Not these. Not even close. These wings are definitely hot and spicy. They have a delicious, crunchy batter. They cook up in no time in an air fryer (you can also prepare them in the oven). The aroma as they cook is dream-worthy. And perhaps best of all, they are not scrawny! Nope, these are meaty, tender, juicy, tasty, crunchy wings! Score!

I was wrong, and I’m sorry

I didn’t have high expectations for these wings and I was wrong about them. If you like battered wings and are in a hurry, you can’t beat them. Eat them straight out of the air fryer, or do as I did and dunk them in a little Buffalo wing sauce and Ranch dressing. Whatever works for you!

Perdue Hot 'N Spicy Crispy Air Fryer Wings

Cook time

The packaging for Perdue Hot ‘N Spicy Crispy Air Fryer Wings says to cook them at 400 F for 16 minutes. Maybe it’s just my air fryer (which is a 1700 watt model), but I found that 14 minutes is better. The wings may not seem crunchy after the shorter time, but they do get crunchier as they cool a little. I thought they came out great. Any longer and they start to get a little dark. Not burned, just dark.

Perdue makes roasted and a lemon pepper versions of these wings. Try them. You’ll love them too and they’re great for your fear-the-heat friends!

Kinder’s Mild BBQ Wings

Although not ‘traditional’, I love tossing wings in barbecue sauce. Just as with wing sauces, there are so many barbecue sauces, so many different flavors. And many of them are truly amazing. Kinder’s mild BBQ wings are tossed in one of those amazing sauces. Mild in heat, but over-the-top delicious, this is one fantastic sauce for wings or anything grilled, from burgers to ribs.

Kinder's Mild BBQ Wings

These Kinder’s mild BBQ wings have a slight sweetness to them. And a light smokiness. This is one fantastic tomato-based barbecue (and wing) sauce for sure. This is one of those sauces you’ll want to keep on hand at all times.

Crispy Baked Honey BBQ Wings

These crispy baked honey BBQ wings made a believer of baked wings out of me. I rarely make wings in the oven. Or rather, I used to rarely make wings in the oven. These wings were delicious. They were cooked just right. The skin had the perfect bite. Man, there’s just nothing worse than rubbery wing skin. Not a worry here, that’s for sure. And the sauce? Oh me, what a great combination of sweetness, smokiness and just a bit of heat.

Crispy Baked Honey BBQ Wings

This recipe for crispy baked honey BBQ wings scales really easily. So if you need to make a bunch of wings for a bunch of people, all you gotta do is double it or triple it or more. The sauce is also great on the sauce for dipping the cooked wings, so make extra. It’s really good stuff, and people are likely to want more of it. I did.

I used Sweet Baby Ray’s for the barbecue sauce in the sauce mix, but you can use your favorite. Since you’re adding honey and a little heat, I’d opt for a more traditional BBQ sauce versus a sweet heat version.

Servings: 4
Calories: 291kcal

Ingredients

For the sauce

Instructions

For the wings

  • Preheat oven to 425 F.
  • Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spray the foil with non-stick spray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt, garlic powder, chili powder and black pepper.
  • Add the wings to the bowl (working in batches if needed) and toss to coat well. Transfer the wings to the baking sheet. Do not overlap the wings or let them touch.
  • Spray the tops of the wings with a little non-stick spray. This is optional but I think it gets the wings a bit more crispy.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Turn the wings and bake another 20 minutes.
  • Brush the tops of the wings with half of the wing sauce. Bake another 5 minutes.
  • Flip the wings and brush with the remaining sauce. Bake another 5 minutes.
  • Optional: If you want a little more color to your wings, place under the boiler for 3-5 minutes. Keep an eye on them, though. You do not want to burn the sauce.

For the sauce

  • Meanwhile, combine all of the sauce ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and then reduce the heat to keep warm until the wings are done, stirring often.

Kinder’s Honey BBQ Wings

Ahhhhh. Perfect. This is what a barbecue sauce is meant for. Wings. Oh yeah, I know, you put it on pulled pork, grilled chicken legs, ribs and even burgers. But on wings…. yum! Kinder’s honey BBQ wings hit the spot and then some for me. The sauce is a nice traditional tomato-based sauce. It has a hint of smokiness, but just a hint. It has a nice sweetness, but not too much. It’s not candy, just a great BBQ sauce that loves to be tossed onto some hot-out-of-the-cooker wings.

Kinder's Honey BBQ Wings

You can serve Kinder’s Honey BBQ wings at a party and not worry about anyone complaining about the heat. If you’re seeking out a bit of spiciness, though, Kinder’s makes a spicy version of this BBQ sauce too. So, cover all of your bases and serve them both! Now you know that everyone will be happy!

This sauce is also great for dipping nuggets.

The Best Homemade Buffalo Wings

I love making may own Buffalo wings at home. Making the sauce from scratch lets me adjust the flavors to my tastes. Sometimes I prefer spicy, sometimes I go for something a little more mellow. Below are my favorite recipes. Give them a try and I’m sure they’ll be your favorites too!

Big Game Hot Wings

Big Game Hot Wings were some of the best, if not the best, homemade wings I’ve had. The sauce really hit the spot for me. It’s the perfect combination of a little sweet and a little heat, with a little vinegar and mustard tang to it. It’s beyond finger-licking good.

Cajun Buffalo Wings

I admit, not everything in this sauce screams Cajun, but these Cajun Buffalo wings are so darned tasty I didn’t care. Everything I love is in this sauce which explains my addiction to it. I cannot stop eating wings tossed in it. A little heat, lots of (yummy) garlic, and just the right amount of traditional Buffalo flavor, this sauce is a real winner.

Copycat Anchor Bar Buffalo Wings

There are three things I can sit down at a table to and eat all day long. They are (in no particular order): peel and eat shrimp, a crab boil, and copycat Anchor Bar Buffalo wings. Great food is even better when you can eat it with your hands. These wings have just the right amount of heat, the perfect vinegar hit, and a buttery flavor that is just the perfect combination. And, bite after bite, I cannot get enough of these wings.

Copycat Hooter’s Hot Buffalo Wings

It’s hard to beat Hooter’s for good ole hot wings. If you don’t have a restaurant nearby you have three options. One, move. Two, order some of their breading and sauces online and make the original yourself. Or three, make this copycat Hooter’s hot buffalo Wings from scratch. Any option will do, but I have to admit that these wings came out spot-on like what I’ve had at the restaurant. They’re hot but not crazy hot. They’re breaded perfectly. They taste wonderful and they disappear in no time. That’s the sign of darned good wings.

Copycat Hooter’s Medium Buffalo Wings

This is it. The mountaintop. The best. Some of my all-time favorite restaurant chain wings, made at home. These copycat Hooter’s medium Buffalo wings were so good that my stomach is growling while I’m writing this post. The flashbacks are making me smile. And hungry. These wings have the perfect breading, the perfect ‘bite’. They’re cooked perfectly. The sauce is spicy, but not too spicy. It’s buttery. Buttery-finger-licking-good. I could eat a mountain of these wings.

Detroit Hot Honey Wings

Yowsa. Somebody needs to open a gallery of chicken wing pictures. A picture of these Detroit hot honey wings would be right by the entrance. Under heavy guard.

Sweet heat, exactly what you’re searching for in a great wing.

Pickapeppa Buffalo-Style Wings

I had a landlord in college that always brought back bottle after bottle of Pickapeppa sauce whenever he went to Jamaica. I had never tasted anything like it. My food palate back then was ruined by fast foods. Pickapeppa woke me up to flavor. Actual flavor! And boy, oh boy, do Pickapeppa Buffalo-style wings ever bring that flavor in a tremendous sauce that is flat-out tasty. These Caribbean-inspired wings are nothing but satisfying, without a lot of heat.

Smokestack’s Wings

If you like traditional Buffalo chicken wings, but are looking for a little twist on the classic, then I guarantee you will love Smokestack’s wings. I did. A lot. The wings are dusted with a wonderful rub that has a nice herbaceous side to it. It’s the sauce, though, that is the kicker, specially if you love Old Bay seasoning. And I do. A lot.

Tangy Tapatio Barbecue Wings

I love traditional Buffalo-style chicken wings. And I love traditional barbecued chicken slathered in sauce. So why not combine my two loves into a single bite? These tangy Tapatio barbecue wings do that and more. The sauce is spot-on crazy good. Not too ketchupy. Not too vinegary. It has just the right kick with just the right consistency. Tapatio is one of my go-to all-time favorite hot sauces. It makes for great wings!

It was time for something different. Time for a departure from my ‘usual’ wings, usually air-fried or deep-fried.
