Grill Master Wings

Make yourself a big batch of these grill master wings. You’ll quickly realize that it doesn’t take a complicated recipe or a lot of ingredients to make fantastic wings. Simply seasoned wings are cooked until perfectly tender and moist with crunchy skin. The wings are then tossed gently in a wonderful sauce that has a slight hint of Asian-inspired flavor with a kiss of vinegar. On the side a slightly kicked-up dipping sauce that makes you think of classic Buffalo wings until you get another slight hint of soy sauce. Delicious!

Grill Master Wings

I like to keep it simple

You could use your favorite spice mixture when you make a batch of grill master wings, instead of ‘just’ salt and pepper when marinating the wings before cooking. I rather like keeping them simple and letting the tossing and dipping sauces shine. Heck, wings just seasoned with salt and pepper, cooked and served are just great as they are.

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!

Also try my gold fever wings!

Great Value Asian Sweet Chili Wing Sauce Wings

Whenever we stop at Quaker Steak & Lube, my wife ALWAYS orders the Thai’R Cracker wings. The sauce combines a great sweetness with a little kick, all in an Asian-inspired chili sauce. We always grab a couple extra bottles of their sauce when we eat there. But if we can’t get to a Quaker Steak & Lube, we grab a bottle of Great Value Asian Sweet Chili wing sauce instead. It’s a mighty great substitute. Perfectly sweet with just a bit of heat. Nothing to be afraid of, but something to enjoy!

Great Value Asian Sweet Chili Wings

Nicely Sweet

Because this Great Value Asian sweet chili wing sauce is a bit on the sweet side I tend to use a bit less sauce than I normally would. That’s just my personal preference. My wife would lean towards more sauce instead.

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Also try some Caribbean Jerk wing sauce wings from Great Value!

Gold Fever Wings

Mustard. Chicken wings. I had no idea. Sure, I like mustard. On sandwiches, or hot dogs. Or burgers. But, wings? My beloved chicken wings? Yes. Oh yes. Gold Fever chicken wings have quickly rocketed to the top of the ‘chicken wings that we want regularly’ list around here. My wife absolutely loves them. Oh, and don’t worry about them being overly mustardy, either. There’s plenty of traditional Buffalo wing flavor too.

Gold Fever Wings

Buffalo Wings with a Mustardy Twist

I just made a big batch of Gold Fever wings a few days ago. I’m making another tomorrow. That’s how good they are. Finger-licking good. Honey mustard. Traditional Buffalo-wing sauce flavors. Chicken wings. Fantastic. You can’t beat that combination.

This sauce is also great on smoked or grilled pork ribs.

Garlic-Q Wings

Alliger’s House of Wings has some of the most awesome wing sauces I’ve ever had. I just cannot get enough of them. The other really cool thing about Alliger’s is that their website has simple recipes for combining their sauces to make new flavors. Like these Garlic-Q wings. It’s a wonderful combination of, you guessed it, garlic wing sauce and BBQ wing sauce! The garlic sauce by itself is pretty garlicky. Add in some BBQ wing sauce and you get this awesome new taste with just the perfect amount of spice.

Garlic-Q Wings

A Wonderful Marriage Of Two Wing Sauces

Garlic-Q wings are a great way to bring a little something different to the party. We’ve all had garlicky wings. We’ve all had BBQ wings. But Garlic-Q wings? Now, that’s new. And it’s so crazy easy to make!

Fire-Eater Habanero Wings

I don’t normally like to eat chicken wings that are so blazingly hot that you fall to the floor and curl up into a fetal position. I like great flavor with a bit of heat. These fire-eater habanero wings can satisfy your craving for serious heat, or if you’re like me, satisfy your craving for tasty, slightly hot, wings. It’s all in the amount of habanero sauce you add. For me, that means just enough to make my lips tingle and my eyes water. These wings came out fantastic, and are by far my favorite hot-and-spicy wings.

Fire-Eater Habanero Wings

Heat is Good

I cooked these Fire-Eater habanero wings using the Vortex insert on my Weber Performer grill. The end result is perfectly cooked wings, with nice crunchy skin, and great cooked-over-fire flavor

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!

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 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.

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.

Dr Pepper & Cream Soda Wings

The first time I tasted Dr Pepper & Cream Soda I knew I was going to make a wing sauce with it. I mean that stuff is just flat-out fantastic, especially for a big Dr Pepper fan (me!). So I made the sauce. Happily. And boy, is this ever crazy good.

Classic Dr Pepper flavor, a little creamy sweetness, and just a slight kick of Buffalo sauce, this sauce is fantastic. Each flavor is different. Nothing is lost. You’ll get everything in every single bite. Could this be the perfect wing sauce?

Dr Pepper & Cream Soda Wings

Uniquely Yummy

I would not change a thing about these Dr Pepper & Cream Soda wings. The flavor is unique and delicious. I like my sauce a bit thick, but not gloppy thick, so I added a little cornstarch at the end to help thicken it up. You can leave it out if you want. After the sauce reduces take a spoon and dip it in the sauce to see if you want it thicker or not.

Sauce On The Side

There’s nothing wrong with serving a bit extra of the sauce on the side for dipping the wings, along with Ranch and blue cheese dressing.

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!

Creamy Buffalo Wings

Oh man, what great wings these creamy Buffalo wings were. They disappeared in no time at all. They’re a simple take on the traditional Buffalo wing, with the same great spicy heat, but with a creamier sauce. Flat-out delicious and definitely finger-licking fantastic.

Creamy Buffalo Wings

A Great Twist on the Classic Sauce

I cooked the wings on my Vortex, which I use on my Weber Performer grill. The Vortex concentrates the heat from the charcoal into a circle, which you then surround with the wings. The chicken wings cook up super tasty and crisp in just over 30 minutes. I let them cool only slightly then tossed them with the creamy Buffalo wing sauce. And then I went to town on them. It was almost embarrassing, but you’ll understand once you try them.

Crab Boil-Brined Wings

My oh my. I had no idea how fantastic these would be when I first came across this recipe for crab boil-brined wings. I thought, what if the crab boil is too strong? And what? A mayonnaise-based wing sauce? Isn’t that illegal? Well, color me wrong on both accounts because these wings were incredible. The crab boil flavor (one of my favorite tastes) is there, but it’s sort of just hanging around in the background. Very pleasant. The creamy mayonnaise basting and dipping sauce is truly outrageously great. It reminds me of the dressing for crab salad in a way.

Crab Boil-Brined Wings

Something Different, Something Great

If you aren’t a fan of crab boil, you’ll still want to make these wings. You don’t want to deprive yourself of something this fantastic. It’d be ok to cut back on it a bit, but don’t leave out the crab boil. And if you’re like me, don’t be afraid to add more because my original worries about it being too strong were definitely unfounded. These crab boil-brined wings are something special.

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!

Copycat Buffalo Wild Wings Mango Habanero Wings

Don’t fear the habanero. Don’t worry about the heat. Well, ok, maybe a little. But it’s really tamed by the fantastic mango sauce. This might well be the perfect combination of sweet and heat. This is what Buffalo wing sauce wants to be when it grows up. This copycat Buffalo Wild Wings mango habanero sauce is nothing but awesome.

Copycat Buffalo Wild Wings Mango Habanero Wings

Tropical Heat

I used a can of mango nectar when I made this copycat Buffalo Wild Wings mango habanero sauce. It can be found in the Hispanic foods section of your grocery store. If you can’t find it, you might find it in the juice section. In a pinch, you can substitute mango that has been diced and pureed until very smooth. In that case you’ll probably need to strain the sauce before using.
