Extra-Thick Blue Cheese Wing Dipping sauce

This extra-thick blue cheese wing dipping sauce isn’t messing around. It’s not flirting with flavor. It owns it. It’s not lacking in blue cheese tang. It has that perfect stick-to-your-wings thickness. Whether your wings are sauced or dry. It doesn’t care. It’s doing its job and staying where it should. Easy as heck to make, this is a great dipping sauce to keep on hand.

Extra-Thick Blue Cheese Wing Dipping sauce

See Ya Tomorrow

One of the keys to this extra-thick blue cheese wing dipping sauce coming out perfectly is to leave it alone. At least overnight. Just let it do its thing in the fridge. Did I try it 5 minutes after I made it? Yes, I did. And it was good. But the next day, it was even better. And the day after that? Yep, even better still! And after that? I have no clue. I had no self-control with this sauce… Which is actually a fail on my part…

…I serve my way-too-delicious wing dipping sauces in little cups. The theory is that it prevents me from using it all up. It’s a good theory that doesn’t always hold up, but I try. It did not hold up with this dipping sauce. It happens. I’m not going to make a bad dipping sauce, after all.

Make More. Make A Salad.

You bet you should double this recipe. You’ll need it for your wings. On the crazy off-chance that you have too much, make a salad. You know, that green stuff on a plate that isn’t wings. Sad, but true.

This dipping sauce is also great for that ‘stuff’ you can serve with your wings. Green and orange things. Oh yeah, celery and carrot sticks. I gotta admit, I forget about them most of the time. I should remember, because honestly, they’re really good covered in this sauce.

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.

I like to serve my dipping sauce in condiment cups. They’re perfect for wings. And they help me control my un-natural dipping sauce addiction. So in theory, I only use what I should.

Thicker-er

If you want a thicker sauce, just add a bit of xanthan gum. And I do mean a little bit. Like 1/4 a teaspoon. Stir it in and let it do its magic. A little does go a long way though. I like to keep xantham gum on hand for any time I need to thicken up any sauce, not just this one. Unlike cornstarch or similar, you don’t have to add it to a warm liquid for it to do its job.

Buttermilk Blue Cheese and Chive Wing Dipping Sauce

I’ve made a few wing dipping sauces that had tons of ingredients in them. You know, the ones that take a little bit of time to put together. This buttermilk blue cheese and chive dipping sauce isn’t one of those. A handful of ingredients makes for a great place to dunk your wings. Something to cool you off. There’s nothing huge going on here. Just creamy buttermilk richness with a little blue cheese and a hint of oniony goodness. Nothing too strong to overpower your wings, but great flavor nonetheless.

Buttermilk Blue Cheese and Chive Wing Dipping Sauce

Dunk Away!

This buttermilk blue cheese and chive dipping sauce is a bit thinner than many. It pours out quite easily. You can add more blue cheese (or less buttermilk, depending on how you want to look at it) to make it thicker. But it’s ok thin, too. It’s also a great place to dunk those carrot and celery sticks you’re wondering what to do with.

This sauce is also fantastic on salads.

If you don’t have or can’t find chives, green onions work just as well!

Creamy Ranch Dressing

It was not ‘make some fancy fru-fru wing dipping sauce’ day here. I just wanted a nice Ranch dressing to go with my lunch-time wings. All I had to do was throw a few on-hand ingredients into a bowl, whisk, and throw it into the fridge overnight. I woke up the next day to wing-dipping happiness. A little herby. A lot creamy. And not so strong that it overpowered my wings. This creamy ranch dressing was all I needed!

Creamy Ranch Dressing

Go Fresh… Ish

You can take one of two approaches when you make this creamy Ranch dressing. You can opt for using fresher ingredients. Grab some fresh parsley, dill and chives. You’ll get a nice, bright fresh dressing. Or you can grab the dried parsley, dill and chives and get a just-as-tasty dressing that’s a little easier and uses ingredients you might already have on-hand. That’s what I did. Whichever way you go, you’ll be happy too! Oh and yes, you can use a combination of dried and fresh if you need. Sometimes I can’t always find everything I want at the grocery store, but I can find this or that. So I use dried when I can’t find fresh.

Oh and yes, it’s great on salads!

Over-Ranching

If you’re like me (a certified, card-carrying ranch-aholic) you lack the self-control you need around this dressing. I tried to minimize my over-ranching by putting it into these small (-ish) condiment cups. I keep the container of ranch in the kitchen. Kind of an ‘out-of-sight, out-of-mind’ approach. These cups help me keep my indulgence under control. They’re the perfect serving size. And they’re wide enough for dipping wings, be it the flats or drumettes. They’re great to have on hand for other things too, like food prep!

Buffalo Wing Buttermilk Blue Cheese Dipping Sauce

What’s better than a great tangy wing dipping sauce? One that’s easy to make, that’s what! This Buffalo wing buttermilk blue cheese dipping sauce could hardly be any easier to make. And you can easily double the recipe or more for a crowd. It’s nice and creamy and lightly tangy, perfect for cooling you off after that blazing hot wing. And if you happen to like your wings with carrot and celery sticks, this sauce is great for them too!

Buffalo Wing Buttermilk Blue Cheese Dipping Sauce

Thin-Ish

This Buffalo wing buttermilk blue cheese dipping sauce is thinner. Thinner than say, bottle blue cheese dressing. I was totally ok with that. You might not be. You can adjust the buttermilk and mayonnaise to change that. Or add more blue cheese. It does thicken up a bit if you let it ‘get happy’ in the fridge overnight. Personally I thought it was fine for my wings.

This sauce is also great as a salad dressing. Serve it up in condiment cups to help control yourself. I did.

Buffalo Wing Blue Cheese Dipping Sauce

Oh yeah. Here we go. We’re bringing the blue cheese. None of them ‘I dunked my wings but I don’t see any blue cheese’ blues here. And we’re bringing thick. None of them ‘the dressing dripped off my wings’ blues here. Nope. This Buffalo wing blue cheese dipping sauce was perfect for my Buffalo wing ‘flight’. My combination of smoked and deep-fried wings, some sauced, some not, was perfect for dipping in this dressing. It cooled me off a bit before I took that next great bite!

Buffalo Wing Blue Cheese Dipping Sauce

Chunky When It Needs To Be

You’re in control of the chunkiness when you make your Buffalo wing blue cheese dipping sauce. Process in your food processor a bit longer and you get less chunks. Me, I like a few chunks. I like the ones that stick to my wings. That’s where that thick creaminess comes in. It helps those delicious cheese chunks stick. If you have hot wings and need a cool dipping sauce, this is it. So make extra.

Oh and yeah, it’s great on salads too!

Don’t Tread Lightly

This dipping sauce is not the time to go find the light ingredients in your fridge. No low-fat mayonnaise. None of that bordering-on-water buttermilk. Get the fully fat loaded stuff. And no matter what you do, don’t skimp on the blue cheese. This is a blue cheese extravaganza in every single bite. It’s not the time to be cutting back on it. Trust me on this. I’ve tried the low road. It’s not the place you want to be. There’s almost nothing worse than making a fantastic wing with a fantastic sauce on it only to ruin it with some yucky, thin, watery, no-taste dipping sauce. That’s just wing sadness right there!

Creamy Buttermilk Wing Dipping Sauce

This creamy buttermilk wing dipping sauce is a little on the thin side. Oh, don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining. Not one bit. I’m just letting you know upfront that it’s not one of those barely-drip-off-your-spoon sauces. It’s gonna drip. But you’ll still get enough on your wings to help cool you down from that heat you just put into your mouth.

Creamy Buttermilk Wing Dipping Sauce

Best For Wings

Many of the wing dipping sauces I make started out as salad dressings. Or they end up as salad dressings. Or dips for veggies. This creamy buttermilk wing dipping sauce? Not so much. For me it’s a little thin for those things. But, oh, on wings, it’s yummy. Wings don’t have all those slick surfaces. Have you looked at celery or lettuce? Slick as ice. Nothing that’s not extra-thick is gonna slide right off. Nope, this sauce is just fine only being used for wings.

Thin Is In

You can make this sauce bit thicker by cutting back a bit on the lemon juice. But by all means don’t do anything nuts like using light ingredients. No light buttermilk. Or diet sour cream. And lite mayonnaise? Oh my. No! For me, that means Blue Plate. It’s full-strength mayonnaise. And full-flavor. I don’t use anything else. Ever. We don’t have it our grocery stores in Indianapolis. So I have it on subscribe-and-save on Amazon. Once a month, the Amazon Santa brings me a jar! How awesome is that!

I serve this dipping sauce in condiment cups. For two reasons, actually. One, they’re the right size of wings. They’re wide at the top, perfect for flats or drumettes. Second, they keep me from going nuts. They help with portion control. I seem to need that around certain foods.

Whataburger Buttermilk Ranch Dressing (Copycat Recipe)

I always get really excited whenever I find a good new recipe for blue cheese or ranch dressing. Yeah, sure most people might think ‘salad’ but I think ‘wings’. I like them easy and I like them tasty. This copycat recipe of the Whataburger buttermilk ranch dressing is spot-on fantastic for dipping wings.

This dressing would probably be good on a salad, too. I dunno. I do wings. I think about wings all of time. So would I go to a burger place for their wings? Nope. But I’d go there for their ranch dressing for MY wings!

Whataburger Buttermilk Ranch Dressing (Copycat Recipe)

Stop At The Light

I gotta say, and I can’t say it enough… don’t go light when you’re making any kind of dressing for dipping your wings. Well, I can’t tell you what to do, so I’ll say I ‘recommend that you don’t use light ingredients’. We’re here to enjoy great wings with a great dipping sauce to help cool us off a bit so we can get back to the wings. Ok, yeah, maybe there’s a carrot stick or a piece of celery we can drag through it too. But we’re here for great wings and a great dressing. Use the ‘heavy ‘stuff. It’s what makes this copycat recipe of Whataburger buttermilk ranch dressing so amazing!

And yep, you can use fresh parsley and chives if you want. Our grocery store is hit-and-miss on both a lot. It was ‘miss’ this week, so I went with dried ingredients.

I serve this dressing on the side in condiment cups. They’re the perfect size for a batch of personal-sized wings. They’re wide enough to dip flats or drumettes. They’re also great for portion control if that’s your thing. Sometimes it’s supposed to be my thing.

Creamy Cool Blue Cheese Wing Dipping Sauce

Blue cheese. Ranch. Blue cheese. Ranch. I don’t care which side of the fence you might be on when it comes to having a dipping sauce for your wings. I personally don’t think that there is a ‘side of the fence’ to be on. Me, I switch it up depending on the wings and my mood. Today, I was in the mood for a really good, cold, kinda funky creamy cool blue cheese wing dipping sauce. And this is it. This is about the easiest sauce you can make. The only thing easier would be to just open a bottle. This is better.

Creamy Cool Blue Cheese Wing Dipping Sauce

The Right Sauciness

What (besides great flavor) makes this creamy cool blue cheese wing dipping sauce so good? Consistency. The right consistency. Too runny of a sauce and you end up with more sauce on your lap than you do on your wings. Too thick and you end up with a ‘fondue’ wings. You know, so much sauce you can’t even see the wings.

Get To Dippin’

I use these little sauce cups for dipping my wings. They are appetizer-sized in that I can easily get enough sauce for 6-10 wings in them. And they’re just the right size for getting a wing in there, too. Boy, there’s not much worse than having a cup so small you can’t dip your wing.

The Best Wing Dipping Sauces

These are my favorite chicken wing dipping sauces. From the cool to the creamy to the spicy, they’re all the perfect go-to with any wings!

Jump to the List

The Best Wing Dipping Sauces

Don’t Forget To Dip

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from countless game days, family cookouts, and late-night cravings, it’s that wings are never just about the wings. The chicken might be crispy, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, but the dip is what makes people hover around the platter and fight over the last flat or drumette. A great dipping sauce can cool things down, add richness, or turn up the heat. This list has a little bit of everything for every kind of wing lover.

Blue Cheese and Ranch

There’s the cool and refreshing side of the spectrum. My go-to classic ranch is anything but boring — made with fresh dill, chives, parsley, buttermilk, and a whisper of roasted garlic, it’s creamy, herby, and tastes like the real deal, not the bottled stuff. I know a lot of people roll their eyes at ranch but hey, it’s what I like and I make a few really great variations on it! But for the purists there’s also the ultimate steakhouse-style blue cheese dip, chunky with real crumbles, tangy with sour cream and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. It’s bold enough to stand up to traditional Buffalo wings and cool enough to make even super-hot wings totally enjoyable.

And More

Next up are the creamy, crave-worthy favorites. These are the dips that cling to every nook and cranny of the wing and make every bite feel more indulgent. Garlic Parmesan aioli is rich, nutty, and loaded with roasted garlic and freshly grated parmesan — it’s absolutely perfect for lemon pepper or plain fried wings. My smoky chipotle mayo brings a little campfire smokiness with a slow-building warmth, while my honey mustard strikes that perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and creamy that pairs ridiculously well with BBQ, honey-glazed, or sweet chili wings.

Kick It Up!

And for those who live for the burn, the spicy lineup does not disappoint. There’s sriracha lime crema, bright, zesty, and fiery with a citrus kick, a creamy ghost pepper ranch that brings serious heat but is so flavorful you can’t stop dipping, and my personal obsession — hot honey butter dip. It’s sweet, spicy, buttery, and downright addictive.

Whether you’re serving a big platter for the Super Bowl, a small batch for movie night, or just treating yourself on a Wednesday (wing day!), these sauces make any wings better. Set out a few bowls, let everyone mix and match, and get ready for the compliments.
