TGI Fridays Buffalo Wings

I’ve always been a fan of Buffalo wings so I’m always up for trying an already-made Buffalo wing sauce, especially since there are so many different ones. I picked up a bottle of TGI Fridays Buffalo wing sauce and quickly got to making a batch of wings. This is not a thick Buffalo wing sauce, but instead it’s quite thin. A bottle goes a long, long way. It’s a mild sauce so you get great Buffalo-style flavors but without a lot of spiciness. I would say it’s a good  standard Buffalo wing sauce, perfect for a crowd since you don’t have to worry about it being too hot.

TGI Fridays Buffalo Wings

A Real Crowd Pleaser

TGI Friday’s Buffalo wing sauce isn’t just great on wings, either. It makes for a perfect dipping sauce for chicken fingers or nuggets. If the sauce is too thin just warm it in a sauce pan. Then whisk in just a bit of flour. Not much, but just enough to thicken it up.

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!

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!

Tangy Tapatio Barbecue Wings

I love traditional Buffalo-style chicken wings. And I love traditional grill chicken slathered in a BBQ sauce. That got me to thinking. Why not combine my two favorite food tastes into a single bite? These tangy Tapatio barbecue wings do that and more. The sauce is spot-on crazy good. Not too ketchupy. Not too vinegary. It has just the right kick with just the right consistency. Combine that with a BBQ-like sauce and you’ve got wing greatness! Tapatio is one of my go-to all-time favorite hot sauces. It makes for some great-tasting wings!

Tangy Tapatio Barbecue Wings

Kinda Different. And Definitely Delicious.

These tangy Tapatio barbecue wings are quickly becoming a staple in our household. The sauce is so easy to make and all of the ingredients are something we always have on hand. As an added bonus, the sauce is also fantastic on grilled chicken, hamburgers and smoked pulled pork and brisket. And hot dogs. Yep, slathered some sauce on those dogs right after you cook them. Plain dogs are boring. They won’t be boring any more!

This is a great all-around sauce.

If you want to add a bit of a smoky flavor, add a pinch or two of chipotle chili powder or smoked paprika and stir into the sauce as it heats.

Brrrr…. It’s Cold In Here

If you have leftover sauce, just put it into a covered container in the fridge. Before you go to use it, though, get it to room temperature or even warmer. Set it out on the countertop for 30 minutes while you cook your wings. Or, if you want, pour some into a saucepan and heat it over low heat. The last thing you want to do is to put cold sauce on hot wings. Nothing good will come from that.

Kroger Buffalo Spicy Garlic Wings

Somebody at Kroger wasn’t lying when they named this sauce. Kroger Buffalo spicy garlic wing sauce is definitely spicy. More so than garlicky. This is a wing sauce that packs a great punch with good flavor, for a really great price. And it’s also the right consistency, important for proper sticking to wings. That’s why you want a wing sauce, right? It’s not gravy, it doesn’t belong on the bottom of your plate. It belongs on your wings.

Kroger Buffalo Spicy Garlic Wings

By Golly It’s Spicy. And Garlicky.

If you’re using a wing sauce (be it homemade or store-bought like Kroger’s Buffalo spicy garlic wing sauce) that has been refrigerated always warm it up just a bit before using it. Nothing makes a hot wing cold faster than tossing it in a sauce right out of the fridge. If you want a cold sauce, I recommend serving it on the side in a sauce dipping cup, like these.

The Spicy Shark Wings

I’d never heard of the Spicy Shark when I came across this sauce in the store. But I knew I had to grab a bottle or ten. The sauce looked good, really good. I saw natural stuff in there, tasty stuff. And hey, the label is cool too, so why not load up and get on home and make some wings! I was definitely not disappointed, either, let me tell you. If you’re looking for a really great, spicy wing sauce that brings something a little different, not the usual Buffalo wing flavor, then the Spicy Shark original recipe wing sauce is definitely for you.

The Spicy Shark Wings

Lots of Ingredients, Lots of Flavor

The Spicy Shark wing sauce contains so many natural ingredients it’ll make your head spin. Things you might not think would be in a wing sauce. But boy did they figure out the right combination. It’s spicy, but not overly spicy. You can still taste the sauce, and I love that. I am not a fan of sauces that are so hot my taste buds short circuit and I get nothing but heat. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy this sauce again (and I really want to try it slathered on grilled chicken!).

Private Selection Chili Wings

I love the Private Selection (Kroger’s premium brand) line of wing sauces. Each one has been fantastic, and believe me I’ve tried them all. The Private Selection Chili wing sauce is no exception. It’s a wonderful combination of garlic and very mild chile peppers. It packs a very, very light punch and brings a good bit of sweetness. Not too spicy and not too sweet.

Private Selection Chili Wings

Great On Other Dishes, Too!

Private Selection Chili wing sauce isn’t just a great sauce for wings, either. It’s great for dipping shrimp and chicken nuggets too! But it is absolutely finger-licking fantastic on a batch of hot-out-of-whatever-you-cooked-them-in wings. I admit it, I’m pretty heavy handed with it when I pour it onto my wings.

Noble Made Medium Buffalo Wings

I was perusing the wing sauce section at our local Whole Foods when I came across a few bottles of Noble Made sauce, including their medium Buffalo wing sauce. Never one to pass up a new (to me) sauce, I grabbed a few and headed on home to make a big ole batch of wings. This sauce is lightly spicy, has that great Buffalo wing flavor, and has the perfect consistency. And consistency is important. Too many sauces are thin and watery. You end up with 10 times as much sauce on your plate as you do on your wings. That’s not why you made wings. You want them covered in sauce, not swimming in sauce soup.

Noble Made Medium Buffalo Wings

A Nice Medium-Heat Sauce

Next time I’m at Whole Foods I won’t hesitate to grab a few more bottles of Noble Made medium Buffalo wing sauce. Along with their other flavors. You can’t go wrong with it. It’s perfect for those occasions when you don’t want a sauce that is so spicy that it scares off your guests.

Try the mild Buffalo wings from Noble Made too!

Stubb’s Black Pepper Anytime Sauce Wings

I really love ‘dry’ chicken wings. By dry I mean not pre-sauced. Not ewwwy dry. Good dry. And they don’t have to be complicated either. Like these black pepper wings. Salt. Pepper. Wings. Well, ok, I did have a dipping sauce, but it’s the fantastic out-of-the-bottle Stubb’s Sweet Black Pepper Anytime sauce, which is also great as a marinade.

Stubb's Black Pepper Wings

More Pepper Is More Better

You don’t want to be shy with the black pepper on these wings. You want that pepper kick, and even a bit of pepper heat, to come through in every bite. Stubb’s makes a variety of sauces and they’re all great on wings, even if they don’t say ‘wing sauce’ on the bottles. You’ll enjoy the intense pepperiness of these Stubb’s black pepper wings!

Also try Stubb’s Texas Sriracha sauce wings and their Wicked Habanero Pepper sauce 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 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!

Torchbearer Buffalo Wings

This Buffalo wing sauce is a little tamer in the heat department, but still oh soooo good. This was my wife’s absolute favorite sauce. And her favorite wings of all time. Of all time! Man, that says a lot when you consider how many wings get eaten around here. My wife is definitely a big fan of Torchbearer Buffalo wings!

This is the second flavor of Torchbearer wing sauce that I’ve tried. The first, chipotle, was beyond crazy good with fantastic flavor and heat.

Torchbearer Buffalo Wings

Great Tasting Heat In Every Bite

I coated these Torchbearer Buffalo wings first (ala Hooter’s wings) and then deep fried them. Tossed them in Torchbearer sauce and chowed down. And kept chowing. Oh, and don’t waste your time with those scrawny frozen uncooked wings that look like they came off crickets and not chickens. Get the big, fresh family packs.

Get yourself some of this sauce. You will not be sorry.

Kroger Hot Buffalo Wings

Kroger has a line of low-priced wing sauces that don’t disappoint. These aren’t your fru-fru, big money sauces. They’re basic and cheap, and are perfect for saucing large batches of wings without breaking the bank. Kroger Hot Buffalo wing sauce isn’t too terribly hot (to me) but it does pack a nice punch. You won’t be on your knees crying in pain, but you’ll get a kick. Trust me. These Kroger Hot Buffalo wings are spot-on good!
