Croix Valley Garlic Ginger Teriyaki Dry Wings

This right here is why I really love dry wings. Croix Valley Garlic Ginger Teriyaki dry wings are packed with flavor, without a sauce. Hey, sure, if you want to add sauce you surely can. But the seasoning is soooo good you can enjoy them without anything else. A sauce or dressing for dipping is definitely optional. Each bite of the wings is a combination of hints of teriyaki, the aroma of ginger and a bit of garlic. You smell the ingredients when you first open the seasoning pouch. You might think that the teriyaki will end up battling the ginger, but no. There’s the perfect balance of each. It’s kinda soy sauce like but without being overwhelming.

Great Flavor in Every Bite

Croix Valley Garlic Ginger Teriyaki Dry Wings still let you taste the wings. I like that. Otherwise, hey, just eat the seasoning out of the bag and skip the wings! We’re here for delicious wings, seasoned perfectly in each and every bite. Add more for more flavor. Less to get just the perfect hint of seasoning. Don’t let the size of the bags fool you. One bag goes a long ways. And this is quality stuff, too. No worries about some bites tasting different than others. It’s mixed and seasoned perfectly.

If I am serving my wings with Ranch or blue cheese or some other sauce, I use these little sauce dipping cups. They’re the perfect size for dipping wings, nuggets, tenders and even vegetables. And they’re easy to clean, too!

Crystal Hot Wing Sauce Wings

I’ve been a fan of Crystal Hot Sauce since the moment I first tasted it. It’s such an incredibly tasty hot sauce. I was waiting for the fine folks to come out with a wing sauce version of their famous sauce. Heck, while I was waiting I made a Buffalo wing sauce based on their hot sauce while I was waiting. Well, the wait is over, Crystal Pure Louisiana Original Hot Wing Sauce is here. Now I can enjoy Crystal Hot Wings any time, in minutes. This is the wing sauce dreams are made of. Just the right heat. And the most incredible aged cayenne pepper flavor around. I love these wings.

Crystal Hot Wings

Nothing But Great Taste In Every Bite

Crystal Hot wing sauce wings are 100% about flavor. Great flavor. You may find yourself like me: wanting to devour the wings in front of you. But resist. Go slow. Enjoy each and every tasty bite. You’ll be so glad you did. These wings are a wonderful take on traditional Buffalo wings.

Baked Coconut Mango Wings

I’m gonna be straight-up. I thought these baked coconut mango wings were delicious. I loved them. I’m not usually a big baked wings fan, but they were packed with island-inspired flavor with golden-brown lightly crunchy skin and moist, tender meat. It was the dipping sauce that threw me. Maybe it’s because 99% of the time I dip my wings in blue cheese or ranch salad dressing. I’m not sure, but I wasn’t a fan. I’d make these wings again, but I’d use the sauce as additional marinade instead. You might feel differently, but it’s my job to be up-front and honest.

Baked Coconut Mango Wings

Delicious… and Pretty

The gorgeous color on these baked coconut mango wings comes from the annatto in the Sazon seasoning. It’s the same stuff that’s used to color other foods, like making cheddar cheese orange. Yeah, it’s really white. Go figure. Why do orange-ish foods taste better? I’m not sure, but they do. And they look better too.

Lillie’s Q Honey Gold Tender Sauce Wings

As soon as I saw this sauce from Lillie’s Q I thought ‘wings’. The bottle says ‘tender sauce’ but hey, wings are what tenders wish they were, so I knew it’d be great on them too! Lillie’s Q Honey Gold Tender sauce wings are crazy good. The sauce is just lightly mustard-y. Too much mustard can be a bad thing. It gets up your nose and all of a sudden you’re not in wing heaven any more. This sauce balances the mustard with the perfect sweetness. No heat here, just great flavors.

Lillies Q Honey Gold Wings

The Perfect Mustardy Balance

So just to make sure, I actually also had the sauce on side for dipping some chicken nuggets. Not ‘boneless chicken wings’, there’s no such thing. Oh don’t let me get started on that! Nuggets. And yep, fantastic for those too! I figured it would be! But truth is, Lillie’s Q Honey Gold Tender Sauce wings are fantastic no matter how you use the sauce.

Also try Lillie’s Q white BBQ sauce wings! They’re great!

Legend Larry’s Mild Buffalo Wing Sauce Wings

Last time I didn’t like a sauce from Legend Larry’s was never. That’s because the fine folks there don’t mess around no matter what flavor we’re talking about. Like these Legend Larry’s mild Buffalo wing sauce wings. They are packed with flavor. No boring wings here. Classic flavors amped up a bit. Deliciously good, and with a little kick to boot. This is a great sauce that makes for great wings.

Legend Larry's Mild Buffalo Wings

The Perfect Amount of Heat

Legend Larry’s mild Buffalo wing sauce wings do have a bit of a kick to them. Oh, don’t get me wrong. It’s not a crazy hot sauce by any stretch but you will get that cayenne kick. If you’re serving this at a get-together you might wanna just let folks know it’s mild. Not medium. And definitely not scary hot.

If I am serving my wings with Ranch or blue cheese or some other sauce, I use these little sauce dipping cups. They’re the perfect size for dipping wings, nuggets, tenders and even vegetables. And they’re easy to clean, too!

Honey Hot Fried Wings

These honey hot fried wings were absolutely incredible. They’re deep-fried. The result is a crunchy skin and batter flavored with one of my favorite things, Old Bay seasoning. The sauce is a combination of honey, hot sauce and sesame oil. It’s a different taste that is amazing. Sweet, heat and umami in each and every bite. What started out as a shrimp recipe ended up being some of the best wings I’ve ever had. I cannot say enough how wonderful these were.

Honey Hot Fried Wings

Deep-Fried Deliciousness

I didn’t sauce these honey hot fried wings like I would my traditional deep fried wings. The sauce is full of flavor. Use it sparingly. The wings are ‘kissed’ with the sauce. Not drowned in it. It’s ok to double the sauce portion of the recipe if you prefer more sauce.

If I’m cooking for a crowd, I’ll break out my big deep fryer to make wings like these. But, if it’s just the two of us, I’ll fire up my Fry Daddy fryer. It’s the perfect size for both of us. It fries everything perfectly. And as an added bonus, it doesn’t use a lot of oil, which saves me money.

Sweet Baby Ray’s Garlic Buffalo Wing Sauce Wings

I had a garlic Buffalo wing sauce once that had so much garlic in it I couldn’t taste the Buffalo-inspired flavors. Or pretty much anything the rest of the day for that matter. And I had one once that was so vinegary and spicy that I couldn’t taste the garlic. Well, Sweet Baby Ray’s garlic Buffalo wing sauce isn’t either of those wing sauces, that’s for sure! It’s perfectly garlicky. And perfectly spicy (I’d call it around medium). It’s perfectly balanced, and a sauce I’d call finger-licking good for sure. This is a great sauce.

Sweet Baby Ray's Garlic Buffalo Wings

Oh, It’s So Good!

I cannot say enough how I enjoyed this wings sauce. Like all of the sauces from Sweet Baby Ray’s, there’s nothing but great flavor in a sauce with the perfect consistency for wings. This sauce brings the garlic and the heat. It’s one of the best bottled sauces you’ll find.

Pickapeppa Buffalo-Style Wings

I had a landlord in college who 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.

Pickapeppa Buffalo-Style Wings

Totally Unique And Delicious

If a bottle of Worcestershire sauce moved to Jamaica, mellowed out a bit, mixed itself with some fruit and covered itself in spices. It’s sweeter with a bit of a vinegar tang and it’s much more complicated taste-wise that Worcestershire sauce. It’s what makes Pickapeppa Buffalo-style wings unlike any other wings you’ve had.

Wing Commander Fierce Dry Wings

I only needed to glance at the contents of the bottle of seasoning to know I would soon be making a batch of Wing Commander Fierce dry wings using a seasoning from the Fire & Smoke Society. The mix contains roasted garlic (a big favorite of mine) and tons of fantastic black pepper. And just a bit of cayenne for heat and a touch of brown sugar for sweetness.

Wing Commander Fierce Dry Wings

A Great Seasoning That Checks All The Boxes

The heat from these Wing Commander Fierce dry wings hits you later but it’s not super-spicy by any stretch. It has a slight southwestern feel to it. It’s amazing on just-cooked wings. You can also use it to season your wings before cooking. When deep-frying you add it to your coating. Grilling? Let the wings dry marinade in it for an hour first.

I’m a huge fan of the combination of black pepper and roasted garlic, so this seasoning checked all of the boxes for me. This seasoning is also fantastic on grilled burgers and steaks.

Sweet Baby Ray’s Mango Habanero Wing Sauce Wings

Oh my goodness. Oh me. I’m so badly addicted to Sweet Baby Ray’s Mango Habanero wing sauce that I cannot stop making wings tossed in the sauce, day after day. This sauce is everything I want in a sauce. It’s a little sweet. It has a hint of mango. Not overpowering, either. And just the right amount of heat. I wouldn’t call it hot, but it’s close to it. But the sweetness tames a lot of that heat. This sauce is beyond finger-licking good. I’d drink it out of the bottle. Without hesitation.

Sweet Baby Ray's Mango Habanero Wings

Sweet-n-Fruity. And Mighty Good.

I hope that the ‘Limited Edition’ words on the bottle of Sweet Baby Ray’s Mango Habanero wing sauce are just that. Words. This sauce is way, way too good to ever go away. I’ll have some on hand. And not just for wings, either. Slather it on grilled chicken. Brush it on rack after rack of smoked ribs. Drizzle it over salmon filets.
