Fiery Catalina Wings

Despite how simple the sauce on these fiery Catalina wings is to make, it absolutely blew us away! We loved it! A tad bit of sweetness, a tad bit of tanginess, and a good bit of heat. Of course, you can adjust the heat to your liking, which is why making your own chicken wing sauce is so much more fun than using a sauce out of a bottle. Add a bit more of this. Add a bit less of that. Experiment. Or don’t. These are some mighty tasty wings no matter what!

Fiery Catalina Wings

So Different And So Good

I cook a lot of wings using lots of different sauces, but there’s no doubt that fiery Catalina wings will be common in our house. Everything we need to make them is on-hand, so I can throw together the sauce in no time with no hassle. Perfect.

This sauce is also the perfect consistency for wings. Not too thick that it’s ‘gloppy’ and not too thin that it creates a sauce ‘lake’ on your plate.

No Fru-Fru-ness

If your grocery stores sells fancy Catalina salad dressing, skip it. No need to use the expensive stuff in the sauce for these wings. I’m not saying don’t use a good dressing. I’m saying that the store-brand version is perfect.

If your dressing (or hot sauce) is refrigerated, make sure you let it come to room temperature before mixing things and tossing wings with it. You do not want to put a cold sauce on hot wings. That’s a great way to make them less-great. I’m about great wings here. So let that stuff get warm first.

I store my leftover homemade sauces in squeeze bottles. If refrigerated, I set them out an hour before using so they come to room temperature. You don’t want to put cold sauce on hot wings!

Buffalo Wild Wings Spicy Garlic Wings (Copycat Recipe)

Ok, time to fess up. If I was forced to choose my favorite sauce at BW3s Buffalo Wild Wings Spicy Garlic sauce would be it. The BW3 website says the sauce is ‘spicy and garlicky’ and that’s exactly what this copycat of the restaurant sauce is. Same great flavors, same great heat. This copycat recipe of Buffalo Wild Wings spicy garlic wings is lick-your-fingers good. And ask for seconds! Oh wait, you’re at home… just go make more!

Buffalo Wild Wings Spicy Garlic Wings (Copycat Recipe)

Nice Heat With Plenty Of Garlic

I so love this copycat recipe of the Buffalo Wild Wings spicy garlic wings sauce. It’s still like a ‘normal’ Buffalo sauce, but with a nice twist making it just different enough but still familiar. The sauce keeps for a bit, so I didn’t hesitate to double the recipe. This sauce is good on grilled chicken or pork wings too.

I’m Dunkin’ It

Now I like saucing my wings just like anyone else. In fact, I wrote a guide on it. Depending on how you cook your wings, you might want to change up how you sauce them. And sometimes, I don’t sauce them directly. I like to put the sauce in little cups and serve it on the side. That way I can get as little or as much sauce in each bite as I want.

Serving the sauce on the side is also a great way to experience many sauces at once. Just put a different one in each cup. Great for parties too!

You can use Great Value’s Thai Curry wing sauce on much more than wings, though you could just use it on wings and be more than happy! It’s also a great dipping sauce for chicken nuggets or tenders.

Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan Garlic Wings (Copycat Recipe)

I love any restaurant, chain or not, that serves chicken wings. I have my favorites for sure, and Buffalo Wild Wings is one of them. That’s because BW3s Parmesan garlic wings are to die for. It’s creamy, a little nutty thanks to the Parmesan cheese, and definitely packed with garlic. This copycat recipe of the Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan garlic wings is spot-on crazy good. I absolutely could not stop eating it. So much so that I made wings covered in the Parmesan garlic sauce two days in a row. Is that wrong?

Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan Garlic Wings (Copycat Recipe)

Cheesy Garlicky Yummy

I say without hesitation that you should double the amount of sauce. These copycat recipe Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan Garlic wings are even better with more. You don’t have to drown the wings in it, no. And if you leftover sauce, that’s quite alright. That’s because it’s good on sandwiches and subs too. Crazy garlicky good. Oh, and don’t hesitate to use it as a dunking sauce for chicken nuggets!

Brrrrrr

This is a pretty thick sauce. And it likes to get thicker if you refrigerate it. So if you have leftover sauce, make sure you let it warm up a bit before using it. Just set it out on the countertop for 30 or so minutes ahead of time. And give it a good shake or stir before pouring it onto your wings. Things like to settle at the bottom of the jar. Get them all evenly distributed before using it.

I store my leftover homemade sauces in squeeze bottles. If refrigerated, I set them out an hour before using so they come to room temperature. You don’t want to put cold sauce on hot wings!

Dr Pepper Hot Wings

Not long ago I made some wonderful BBQ sauce made with Dr. Pepper. That got me thinking about how I could use Dr. Pepper with my favorite food, chicken wings.  And here they are, in all of their glory, Dr Pepper hot wings. Slightly sweet, slightly spicy, and oh-so-sticky good. The Dr. Pepper flavor isn’t real strong, but it’s there. The balance is perfect. These are some mighty tasty wings.

Dr Pepper Hot Wings

Sweet Sticky Spicy Goodness

Make sure you reduce the sauce when you make the sauce for these Dr Pepper hot wings. The cornstarch is optional, depending on how thick you like your sauce, but for me it wasn’t so optional. I like the sauce to stick to my wings. Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t like a thin watery lake of sauce in the bottom of my plate while my wings are dry as a bone. The cornstarch thickens it up just right without being too thick. We ain’t painting here, after all.

Diet Tomorrow

I don’t recommend using diet soda to make the sauce. Or brown sugar substitute, either. This just isn’t the time. The flavors just won’t be quite right. Close. But we’re not doing ‘close’ here. We want sauce greatness.

Be A Pepper

There are other flavors of Dr Pepper soda besides the yummy classic one. Like cherry. That’s yummy too. And it makes for a great wing sauce, too. Just follow the same steps as below, using cherry Dr Pepper instead. It’s just that easy.

I store my leftover homemade sauces in squeeze bottles. If refrigerated, I set them out an hour before using so they come to room temperature. You don’t want to put cold sauce on hot wings!

Cajun Bay Wings

A few weeks ago I made a beer-can chicken recipe that used a 50/50 combination of Cajun seasoning and Old Bay seasoning. I instantly fell in love with the combination. A little heat, a little sweet, cloves, allspice, paprika… just about all you could imagine. I knew right then and there that I wanted to use the same mix on chicken wings. And so my Cajun Bay chicken wings were born. And oh how good they were. I served them dry, not sauced. Just that great combination of Cajun and Old Bay seasonings, with a little Ranch dressing on the side for dipping. The flavor combination was fantastic, and one you will see here again soon.

Cajun Bay Wings

One Deliciously Different Wing

Once the wings are cooked, you can dust them with more of the Cajun and Old Bay mix if you want even more pronounced flavors. I skipped it since my wife isn’t quite the fan of Old Bay as I am. She doesn’t like cloves or allspice so much. That’s one nice thing about this mix. You still get those flavors, but they are toned down a bit because of the addition of the Cajun seasoning.

Quaker Steak and Lube Thai ‘R’ Cracker Wings (Copycat Recipe)

Whenever we are in the Cincinnati area we make a stop at Quaker Steak & Lube for wings. They have the best sauces and service around. My wife’s favorite sauce there is Thai ‘R’ Cracker, a somewhat sweet chili sauce. We also usually pick up a few bottles of sauce to take home. Those bottles don’t normally last long, so I decided to make a copycat recipe Quaker Steak and Lube Thai ‘R’ Cracker wings.

A finger-licking good copy

Just like the original, this chili sauce-based mixture combines a bit of sweet and a bit of heat all with a slight Asian zing. It’s really, really good stuff. The kind of stuff that makes you want to lick your wings, which is borderline weird.

Quaker Steak and Lube Thai 'R' Cracker Wings (Copycat Recipe)

The key to success

The secret to this copycat recipe of the Quaker Steak and Lube Thai R Cracker Wing Sauce is in the chili sauces you choose. Both garlic and sweet chili sauces come in a lot of different variations, making it difficult to match the original taste exactly. I recommend getting a few bottles of each different sauce and mix them and try them to find the combination that you prefer. Our local grocery store had several different brands of each. You can also try your local Asian market for others.

I store my leftover homemade sauces in squeeze bottles. If refrigerated, I set them out an hour before using so they come to room temperature. You don’t want to put cold sauce on hot wings!
