Jimbo’s Mild Wang Sauce Wings

Nothing makes me happier than to discover a new wing sauce. Especially one that just wows the heck out of me. I was perusing the sauces at one of my favorite places on earth, Jungle Jim’s in Cincinnati, when I spotted the Jimbo’s Wang sauces. Nope, that’s not a typo. That’s what the bottle says. I grabbed a few and headed back home to make wings ASAP. I didn’t do anything fancy with them. Season ’em, cook ’em, sauce ’em. Then devour ’em. This sauce is crazy good. I was almost reminded of Heinz 57 steak sauce. A little ketchup-y. Hints of Worcestershire sauce. The perfect combination of tastes. And the right consistency, too. Man, what a great sauce.

Jimbo's Mild Wang Sauce Wings

It’s A Happy Time!

These Jimbo’s Mild Wang sauce wings made me happy. They came out great. I made my standard-issue air fryer wings. I didn’t want to load them up with a lot of in-my-face seasoning that might end up fighting the sauce. It being my first time using it, I didn’t want the sauce to be drowned out by other flavors. Now that I know what it’s like, I can adjust my seasoning to complement it. Or I can just go with salt and pepper and let the sauce do all the talking. Every day is a new day, and another great day to enjoy wings, like these!

Sous Vide Deep-Fried Wings

It’s ok if you’re making ‘the face’ right now. I get it from my wife sometimes. It’s usually followed by ‘those seem complicated’. Yeah, that might be your first thought (and mine) when you look over the recipe for these sous vide deep-fried wings. Do this. Then do that. And that. But let me tell you, when I took that first bite every ounce of doubt was gone. These are amazing. The wings themselves are incredibly tasty. So tender. Amazingly juicy. Really, I could’ve just eaten them by themselves. No sauce, nothing. I have made a lot of wings. A lot. And these are way, way up on the list of my all-time favorites.

Sous Vide Deep-Fried Wings

The Finish Line

I finished off my sous vide deep-fried wings in the deep fryer (kind of obvious, huh?). I didn’t have to. I could’ve reheated the air-dried wings in the oven. Or the air fryer. Or tossed them onto a hot grill. I just needed to heat them up. Get a little crunch on the skin. Then I lightly sauced them in a Buffalo wing sauce. Lightly because I definitely did not want to overpower the wings. They are amazing. The sauce did not need to be the star of the show. It just needed to be there.

These are great wings.

Instructions

  • Combine the brine ingredients in a large bowl. Stir until the salt is dissolved.
  • Add the wings. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours.
  • Set up your sous vide for 155 F.

  • Remove the wings from the water and open the bag.
  • Remove the wings from the bag and pat dry then transfer to a baking sheet lined with paper towels.

  • Remove wings and toss in your favorite sauce.

Extra-Tasty Baked Wings For A Crowd

I didn’t think these wings would be so good. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Right out of the oven, these extra-tasty baked wings for a crowd tasted as great as they smelled while they cooked. Slightly sweet. A good hint of soy sauce. And mustard. Yep, mustard. That’s the part I didn’t think would work. But it did. These wings are different, and a great way to feed a small group of people.

Extra-Tasty Baked Wings For A Crowd

So Juicy, No Sauce Required

I didn’t do anything to these extra-tasty baked wings for a crowd other than to take them out of the oven and eat them. I didn’t need to sauce them. They have plenty of flavor as-is. I didn’t need to serve them with blue cheese or ranch dressing. They didn’t need it. Just pick ’em up, eat ’em. Repeat.

PS: I do think that these wings would be great with blue cheese dressing. That blue cheese ‘funk’ would offset the mild sweetness. If you’re into that thing, go for it.

Instructions

For the wings

  • Combine the brown sugar, mustard and soy sauce in a large bowl or resealable container.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup of the marinade in a small container in the fridge.
  • Add the wings to the bowl or container and turn or toss to coat.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least two hours (up to 12), turning every hour or so.
  • Preheat your oven to 375 F.
  • Line 2 large baking sheets with foil.
  • Lightly spray the foil with non-stick spray.
  • Remove wings from the marinade and place onto the foil. I like to turn the flats skin-side down for starters. Discard the marinade.
  • Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Flip the wings and baste with the reserved marinade. Bake another 30 minutes.
  • If desired, place the wings under the broiler for a few minutes to give them more color and to slightly crisp up the skin.
  • Serve.

Bronco Bob’s Roasted Raspberry Chipotle Wings

Oh my goodness gracious me oh my. Did I ever find one of the best sauces ever for wings. Everything I crave is in this sauce. It’s a little fruity (well, technically it’s berry-y). A little spicy. It looks amazing. It tastes amazing. These Bronco Bob’s Roasted Raspberry Chipotle wings are nothing but delicious. I could eat these all day long and still ask for more. What a winner!

Wings. Ribs. Cream cheese. Whateves.

This sauce is truly great on wings. But I do eat other things. Rarely, but it happens. It’s also great on ribs. Really great. Or pour some over softened cream cheese and serve with crackers. Dip chicken nuggets in it. Whatever you got, the sauce will make it better. Or just enjoy some Bronco Bob’s Roasted Raspberry Chipotle wings.

I went with my classic, favorite lunchtime wing recipe for air fryer wings. I work from home but that doesn’t mean I have a lot of free time to muss and fuss with my lunch. Air fryer wings are easy and turn out great every single time. Cook. Sauce. Eat. Doesn’t get much easier than that!

Hidden Valley Ranch Air Fryer Ranch Wings

Oh yum! As a certified Ranch-a-holic, these Hidden Valley Ranch air fryer Ranch wings were right in my wheelhouse as they say. Every bite was packed with the perfect amount of Ranch flavor. Crispy from the air fryer. Tender. Juicy. These were some mighty-good, and mighty-easy, wings!

Hidden Valley Ranch Air Fryer Ranch Wings

My Kind Of Dry Wings

These Hidden Valley Ranch air fryer Ranch wings are ‘dry’ wings. No, no. That doesn’t mean they’re bone-dry, dehydrated and basically yucky. Quite the opposite. The wings themselves are perfect. They’re called ‘dry’ because there’s no sauce. Anywhere. None to be seen. Why? Because you don’t need it. The seasoning does the work here. You won’t be missing the sauce.

Ok, so if you need to have a sauce, serve these wings with a little Ranch dressing on the side for dipping. Don’t hide the wonderful flavor on these wings. But it’s ok to double-up on the Ranch!

Air Fryer Dill Pickle Dry Wings

Oh yes! Air fryer dill pickle dry wings! Welcome to my new favorite lunch-time indulgence! Tons of dill pickle flavor. Through-and-through. Every bite. Crunchy skin that’s loaded with more dill pickle goodness. And a nice cool (and a little spicy) dill pickle dipping sauce on the side! This right here is dill pickle wing heaven!

Air Fryer Dill Pickle Dry Wings

Dill And More Dill. Then Some More Dill.

These air fryer dill pickle dry wings are not the opportunity to go light on dill flavor. Do not be shy with the seasoning. You season the wings (big time) before they go into the air fryer. Then you season the wings (big time) again after they come out. While they’re hot. The longer they cool the less the seasoning likes to ‘stick’ so get them good and coated while they’re hot.

The dipping sauce packs the dill flavor, too. I add a bit of hot sauce for a nice little kick. You don’t have to do that, it’s totally optional. Or you can add a lot more for a really spicy version. It’s up to you!

Louisiana Fish Fry Seasoned Chicken Wings

Ahhhhh. True deep-fried battered wing goodness. These Louisiana Fish Fry seasoned chicken wings hit the spot. Wonderfully crunchy. Perfectly seasoned. Crazy easy. And ready in minutes. While not ‘traditional’ wings, I do love wings made ‘grandma’s fried chicken style’. You can’t beat the taste, the moist juicy chicken and of course the super-crunchy skin and coating.

Louisiana Fish Fry Seasoned Chicken Wings

Plain. But Not Plain.

I serve my Louisiana Fish Fry seasoned chicken wings ‘plain’. No sauce on them. I could have sauced them. Carefully. You can’t go crazy saucing these wings. First, you get to tossing the wings and the batter’s gonna fall off. That’s not good. Second, the batter will get soggy. And that’s not good. Best to serve some sauce on the side. Just dunk as you go!

Down Home Buttermilk Wing Dipping Sauce

Me, my wings, and any salad dressing containing buttermilk are friends. For me, it makes for the perfect basis for a good dipping sauce. This down home buttermilk wing dipping sauce isn’t complicated. There’s really not much in it. It lets that wonderful buttermilk flavor come through, without burying it. It isn’t going to fight with the flavor of your wings so much that you just taste the dipping sauce. It’ll cool you down if you are enjoying some super-hot wings. And even if you’re not.

Down Home Buttermilk Wing Dipping Sauce

Dip This. Dip That.

This dressing is thinner, but not crazy thin. So it’s also great for dipping veggies. Sure, you could put it on a salad too, but we’re here for wings, so get to dipping! The recipe makes a pretty big batch. Plenty for a crowd. Plenty for those veggies. And plenty for your wings!

This down home buttermilk wing dipping sauce needs some quality time in the fridge before you serve it. Just cover it and leave it alone for six hours at least. Overnight is better. It’ll thicken up slightly (but not much). And the flavor will get even better.
