Legend Larry’s Sweet Thai Chili Wing Sauce Wings

Legend Larry’s Sweet Thai Chili wing sauce is fantastic. I am not surprised, though, because every sauce I’ve had from Legend Larry’s has been fantastic. Always the right consistency. Never overpowering. Just flat-out fantastic. This sauce has a slight kick, but not too much. You just notice it. It’s slightly sweet, but not so much so. It’s a great chili sauce by itself, but on wings it’s perfect.

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.

Copycat Hooter's Medium Buffalo Wings

Less Heat But Oh So Good

These copycat Hooter’s medium Buffalo wings are the kind you can serve to a crowd and serve proudly. Everyone will enjoy them. There’s not enough heat to really scare anyone off. Serve them with Ranch or blue cheese dressing in case people want to cool off a bit. Sure, add some carrot sticks and celery too. Personally, I don’t go for the ‘garden salad’ additions. I’m here for the wings.

I used Frank’s RedHot Original Cayenne Pepper Hot Sauce to make the sauce for these wings. It’s hard to stray from the original when making Buffalo-style wings. I do admit to using Crystal Hot Sauce from time-to-time, though. It’s got the right heat with a little Louisiana-twist.

Whole Foods Organic Nashville Wing Sauce Wings

If you’re a fan of Nashville hot chicken (and boy, am I ever) and you’re in the market for an organic alternative to the other Nashville hot chicken wing sauces on the market, then Whole Foods Organic Nashville wing sauce is right up your alley. It brings the classic Nashville cayenne heat in a light vinegar sauce that delivers on taste too. It’s not for the shy, but it has great taste too, and that’s a major plus!

Whole Foods Organic Nashville Wings

Great Flavors With A Great Kick

Whole Foods Organic Nashville wing sauce is a bit on the thin side. But then, authentic Nashville hot chicken isn’t covered in a thick sauce, either. If you like spiciness you’ll like this sauce. And if you like the taste of peppers you’ll like it even more. It’s a clean flavor. And by the way, it makes a great marinade for chicken breasts!

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!

Hooter’s Medium Wing Sauce Wings

Hooter’s is where my wing addiction started. These Hooter’s medium wing sauce wings (deep fried!) are as close to the real thing as you can get. Lightly crunchy, super tasty breading with a just-spicy-enough Buffalo wing sauce. No pain from the heat here, just great wings. This is not a copycat recipe. These wings are made with the same breading and sauce you can order online or pick up in the retail section at any Hooter’s. Get some, make these wings, and be happy!

Hooter's Medium Wings

Great Wings Without All The Heat

I can fry 5-6 Hooter’s medium wing sauce wings at a time in a Fry Daddy fryer. It makes for some perfect wings. Only downside is that you can’t select the cook temperature, so I end up cooking my wings a bit longer since the oil is around 325 F-350 F. Still it makes for great wings in no time with a lot less oil than if I’d used my big restaurant-style fryer!

If you like to serve your Hooter’s medium wing sauce wings with carrots and celery on the side, I recommend that you take a vegetable peeler to remove the outer strings. The celery is oh so much more tender without those pesky things!

Need something with a little (actually a lot) more heat? Try Hooter’s 3 Mile Island wing sauce wings!

June Moon Sweet-n-Spicy Wing Sauce Wings

June Moon Sweet-n-Spicy wing sauce wings are a little different. In a good way, too. The sauce is a little bit tomato-BBQ-sauce-like. A little sweet with a little tang, a little kick, that makes it different. It’s not thick or too thin. This is a good sauce that you can serve to your friends without worrying about scorching their tongues or making their taste buds fall asleep.

June Moon Sweet-n-Spicy Wings

Not Too Sweet and Not Too Spicy

I picked up a big ole variety pack of sauces off of Amazon. This June Moon Sweet-n-Spicy wing sauce was just one of the great sauces that arrived. If you want a big huge variety of sauces for wings and more, grab a box and get to cooking! You won’t be disappointed in the flavors, variety or quality!

Chipotle Barbecue Wings

These chipotle barbecue wings are proof of two things. One, Tabasco Chipotle Sauce is absolutely the tastiest, smoky pepper sauce you can find. And two, with just two ingredients you can make one of the best wing sauces you’ve had. Mild on the heat side, and full-power on the taste side, I could not have been happier with these wings.

Chipotle Barbecue Wings

The Easiest Sauce You’ll Ever Make

The sauce on these chipotle barbecue wings is definitely not ‘just’ for wings. Oh me, is it ever good on grilled or smoked ribs. Ditto smoked pulled pork or brisket. And grilled chicken? Yeah, great there too. It has the perfect consistency to stick to anything you put it on without being too thick that it is gloppy. You can adjust the spicy level by using more or less of the Tabasco sauce. I found a 50/50 ratio to be perfect, giving me a little heat and a lot of flavor at the same time.

I used Sweet Baby Ray’s Barbecue Sauce in this recipe. Kraft Original Slow-Simmered BBQ Barbecue Sauce would be another great choice. You don’t want to grab something that is going to fight the pepper sauce. Just a good old school tomato-based sauce will do just fine.

June Moon Parmesan Garlic Wing Sauce Wings

I devoured these June Moon Parmesan garlic wing sauce wings in no time at all. The sauce is super creamy delicious. I found myself licking my fingers, wanting more and more sauce. This sauce screams fresh, like all of the sauces from June Moon. You’ll swear that the Parmesan cheese was grated just minutes ago. You’ll think that the oregano, basil, thyme and other herbs were just picked and chopped, and the lemon was just squeezed. And the garlic… oh my… just minced!

June Moon Parmesan Garlic Wings

Herby Deliciousness

As much as I loved these June Moon Parmesan garlic wing sauce wings, I think the sauce could find itself in many other dishes. First, it’d make for one heck of a salad dressing. Sure, it’s a pretty thick sauce, but it’s so packed with flavor that you wouldn’t have to use much.

I can also see it as a sauce on a grilled chicken sandwich. No need for mayo or mustard.

So, grab some of this sauce and get to making some wings. And more!

Wing It Sweet ‘N Tangy Wing Sauce Wings

It’s not unusual for me to open some wing sauce, make a batch or two of wings with it, and put the half-full bottle back into the fridge for wings for some later day. Well, I made some Wing It Sweet ‘N Tangy wing sauce wings and let me tell you, the bottle is getting finished before I move on. This sauce is so dang good no way do I want it sitting around. It’d be rude. Sweet thanks to molasses, tangy thanks to mustard and vinegary, this sauce seems BBQ-like but with so many twists and turns that it’s definitely different and outrageously good. This is easily one of my favorite sauces of any kind.

Wing It Sweet 'N Tangy Wings

So Many Flavors In Every Bite

These Wing It Sweet ‘N Tangy wing sauce wings had a slight hint of heat to them. Not much. And a little Asian-inspiration from soy sauce. Yep, all sorts of things went into this sauce and they all work together perfectly. I so regret not ordering more of this sauce because it will be fantastic on roasted chicken and smoked ribs. Well, time to remedy that and order some more!

Lawry’s Spicy Buffalo Dry Wings

Any seasoning that is ‘normally’ used for adding flavor to wings that will eventually end up being sauced can be used to make what are called ‘dry’ wings. I’m a huge fan of dry wings and rank them up there with any sauced wings. These Lawry’s spicy Buffalo dry wings bring classic Buffalo wing flavor with a really nice amount of spicy kick. These are finger-lickingly good wings.

Lawry's Spicy Buffalo Dry Wings

What Dry Wings Should Be

Lawry’s spicy Buffalo dry wings might make you forget about saucing your next batch of wings. Yeah, you can still sauce them. But try them without first and if you haven’t already, you’ll come over to the ‘dry side’. These wings are packed with great flavor.

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 even better, they’re super easy to clean!

Spicy Sweet and Sour Wings

These spicy sweet and sour wings are proof that it really doesn’t take a pantry full of ingredients to make a fantastic wing sauce. It truly doesn’t get any easier than this. Just open two bottles, pour into a bowl and mix. That’s it. And the cool part is that you get to decide how sweet you want it to be. Or how spicy. It’s impossible to mess up this sauce.

Spicy Sweet and Sour Wing

Sweet And Sour Needed Some Heat

I opted for Crystal Hot sauce in my spicy sweet and sour wings sauce. It’s got great flavor and just the right heat level for me. Sure, I’ve got hotter hot sauces around. If I was craving hotter wings, I would’ve used them. And if I’m more on the even milder side, I’ve got sauces for that too.
