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!

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!

Joey Chestnut Orange Citrus Habanero Wing Sauce Wings

Man, what a great wing sauce. When I first ran across a display of Joey Chestnut Orange Citrus Habanero wing sauce my first reaction was ‘now that’s different’. I’ve tried a few of Joey’s wing flavors, and they’ve all been crazy good. This one is no exception. It goes on a bit creamy, but not too thick. There’s a wonderful orange flavor that mixes perfectly with the nice kick of habanero pepper. It’s not for the faint of heart, but it’s mighty delicious and not too terribly spicy. I’m a big fan of this sauce.

Joey Chestnut Orange Citrus Habanero Wings

Citrus With A Kick

Sometimes I prefer to make my wings ‘dry’, that is without any sauce. I can then dip them in whatever sauces I have on hand, not limiting myself to just one flavor. Joey Chestnut Orange Citrus Habanero wing sauce is great for dipping too, so don’t just think you need to toss your wings in it. It has just the right consistency for dipping or tossing. Or both.

The Mustard Man Simply Sweet Wings

Every day I wake up and am more and more a fan of mustardy wing sauces. Even if they don’t start out as wing sauces. The Mustard Man has made me a big believer of them. This time, I squeezed some delicious, creamy Simply Sweet mustard onto a batch of hot wings and dove in like a man possessed. This sauce isn’t overly mustardy. It’s slightly sweet, but not too much so. It’s definitely finger-licking good. If you don’t think that mustard right out of a bottle doesn’t belong on wings, this sauce will change your mind with the very first bite.

The Mustard Man Simply Sweet Wings

Mustard On Wings Is A Win

I like to sauce my wings with The Mustard Man Simply Sweet mustard as soon as they’re done. While they’re still nice and hot. The creamy mustard melts all over the wings making them … well, glorious is the only word I can think of right now!

Also try some Mustard Man Simply Horsey wings!

Lawry’s Zesty Lemon and Pepper Dry Wings

Despite not really screaming ‘zesty’ or ‘lemon’ I really enjoyed some Lawry’s Zesty Lemon and Pepper dry wings. The pepper flavor is pretty mellow too. This is not a bad wing seasoning, it just doesn’t quite live up to the label. I put a good amount on some wings, tossed them in the air fryer and let them cook until crispy. When they came out, and while they were still hot, I hit them with a lot more seasoning. I liked them.

Lawry's Zesty Lemon and Pepper Dry Wings

Light On The Lemon And The Pepper

If you’re looking for something that isn’t in-your-face lemon or pepper, I’d say give Lawry’s zesty lemon and pepper dry wings a try. Just don’t expect to make that lemony-puckery face after each bite. And don’t expect to sneeze from too much pepper.

I’ve read where others suggested adding a bit of onion or garlic powder to this seasoning before using it. That might help give it that little help that it needs.

Wing Master Smokehouse Wing Sauce Wings

Whenever my wife and I are in the Gatlinburg, Tennessee, area we always make it a point to swing by a Pepper Palace store. They have several stores in the area, including a new one in Sevierville in an area called The Island. The store, as always, was busy, with people everywhere enjoying samples of the hot sauces and salsas, from the hot to the mild. Me, I headed straight to the wing sauces and in particular, Pepper Palace’s own line of Wing Master sauces, including this Smokehouse wing sauce.

Wing Master Smokehouse Wings

The Right Amount Of Smoke And Heat

As soon as we returned from our trip I threw a few seasoned wings onto my Weber Performer grill outfitted with the Vortex insert. When the wings were done I tossed them with the Smokehouse wing sauce and dug in. The smokehouse sauce has, as you might guess, a great smoky flavor. Not overwhelmingly smoky, but really good. It really amplifies the grilled flavor of the wings. The sauce has a bit of a chipotle and wing sauce kick, but again, not overwhelming. It’s a very enjoyable sauce. I definitely wish that I’d picked up a few more bottles!

Pepper Palace Sauces Make For Happy Wings

Pepper Palace makes a ton of great sauces and seasonings, not just for wings. Find a store near you and spend an hour or two wandering the shelves. They always have an area where you can sample sauces and spices, too. It’s like flavor heaven. Instead, if there’s not one near you, take a road trip (it’ll be worth it) or order online.

Restaurant-Style Deep-Fried Wings

Most of the time, you’ll find me making my wings on one of my grills. Quite regularly, actually. But sometimes I am just not up to fighting the weather or I prefer a more traditional wing. That’s when my restaurant-style deep-fried wings make an appearance. For me, a deep-fried wing has to be battered, but not heavily so. Somewhere between grandma’s fried chicken and no-batter-at-all is what I want. Something for the wing sauce to stick to, and something with just a little crunch. A little kick, if I want. Like these wings, right here.

Restaurant-Style Deep-Fried Wings

My Go-To Recipe

This is my base recipe for my restaurant-style deep-fried wings. When I’m cooking dry wings (not sauced after cooking), I will often take the dry wing spices and incorporate them into the coating, leaving out the paprika and/or cayenne if they will clash. My Buffalo Ranch dry wings are a great example.

Big Wings Take Longer (Duh!)

Frying time varies with the size of your wings. I always buy family packs of fresh wings. They’re big and meaty and take a full 9 minutes or longer to fry. If you buy frozen un-cooked wings (thaw them first!) you’ll often find they are smaller and don’t require so much cooking time.

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!

G Hughes Sugar Free Caribbean Jerk Wing Sauce Wings

Sometimes I get a little worried when I’m about to try a new (to me) jerk sauce. I’ve run into a few that had just too much cinnamon or nutmeg for me. Well, G Hughes Sugar Free Caribbean Jerk wing sauce nailed the flavor perfectly. No worries here, this is one really tasty jerk sauce. The flavors aren’t too forward, no single one overpowers the rest. The sauce is thinner than many, but it is sugar free so you can’t really expect something like a thick sugary sauce!

G Hughes Sugar Free Caribbean Jerk Wings

Low in Heat, High in Flavor

G Hughes Sugar Free Caribbean Jerk wing sauce is not spicy, so don’t get all worried that you’re going to be wallowing in scotch bonnet pain. A more traditional sauce could be spicier, but the flavors more than made up for the low heat level at least for me.

This sauce would also make a tremendous chicken marinade. It’s full of flavor!

Buttermilk Southwestern Wings

Yep. I did it. I stepped right over that line between ‘fried chicken wings’ and ‘grandma’s fried chicken’. It’s a gray line. You can barely see it. Heck, I’m not sure it even exists. It doesn’t matter really. Because I enjoyed these buttermilk southwestern wings no matter what you call them. Tender, juicy meat that is packed with flavor. Crunchy, delicious coating. What’s not to like?

Buttermilk Southwestern Wings

Sauce On The Side?

You’ll probably want a sauce to go on these buttermilk southwestern wings. Oh, it’s not required really. But to keep from calling these ‘grandma’s fried chicken wings’, you’ll probably want a sauce. Heck, the wing police might come calling if you don’t.

But don’t go drizzling the wings in sauce then tossing them around in a bowl. You’ll lose all of that delicious crunchy coating. Instead, either drizzle the wings with the sauce or (my recommendation!) serve the sauce on the side, for dipping. The nice thing about having a bowl of sauce on the side is you (and your guests) can dunk a little or a lot. You go to pre-drizzling the wings and someone is gonna say they didn’t get enough sauce. Or they got too much. Sauce on the side solves that problem!
