Sometimes it’s the easy, simple things that taste the best. These Buff-a-cue wings came out fantastic. The sauce takes literally no time at all to make. And it’s totally up to you how to ‘make it your own’. Use a spicy BBQ sauce. Or a smoky one. Or a bourbon-flavored one. Whichever you prefer. Change it up from day-to-day. Ditto the Buffalo sauce. Mild one day. Crazy hot the next. Do you. You can’t go wrong with these wings.

These Buff-a-cue wings would be great for a crowd. You can set up a variety of wing stations, each with a different flavor. Without breaking the bank or spending a lot of time making sauces. It’s an easy way to satisfy those like have a sweet tooth. And those that like it spicy. So grab a few bottles of BBQ sauce and a few bottles of Buffalo sauce next time you’re at the store, and get to making some great wings!

What Are You Waiting For?

Go make some wings! It’s not that hard to do! My go-to method is to air-fry them. A little seasoning first. Air-fried to perfection. Fantastic aroma as they cook. Crispy skin. Juicy meat. Tender. Ready for a sauce. Air-fried wings can hold up to being tossed with sauce, so that’s what I do. If they were deep-fried with a batter I wouldn’t abuse them like that. I’d gently brush the sauce on. Or serve it on the side, for dipping.

See my guides for cooking your wings and for saucing them! I’ve got you covered!

My Trusty Wingman

My air fryer isn’t fancy. It doesn’t have any bells and whistles. Well, ok, it does have a bell when the timer goes off but that’s it. I don’t even use the timer actually. I use a timer on my phone that has two countdowns: one for 12 minutes and one for 6 minutes. That’s all I ever need to get perfect wings each and every time!
