Yowsa. Silly me. I only bought one bottle of this sauce. It was here. Then it was gone. That’s because these Rib Rack Cider BBQ wings are crazy good. All thanks to the sauce, really. I was kinda worried when the label said ‘cider’. Would this sauce be too vinegary for me? Would it be too strong? Well no. Heck no. It was quite the opposite. It’s lightly vinegary. Lightly. Just rightly vinegary actually. It’s a little on the sweet side, which is more than fine by me. I do tend to lean towards the sweeter sauces. And it has a light fruity flavor to it. Like wonderfully fruity. Not ‘ewww fruity’ but ‘yummy fruity’. Yeah, the label may say ‘BBQ Sauce’ but this sauce is perfect on wings. Way perfect!
Squeeze. And Squeeze Again
I wasn’t shy with the sauce when I went to squeeze it out on my Rib Rack Cider BBQ wings. I knew I wanted more sauce. Sometimes I go light on sauce. Sometimes I go heavy. And this sauce definitely wanted me to go heavy with it. More was better. I figured hey, any sauce left on the bottom of my plate was an opportunity for me to lick my plate. I’m at home, I can do that. No one was watching.
Brrrrrrr
I’ve been trying to be better about the number of sauces I have open at once and in my fridge. I admit, it was getting out of control. Shelf after shelf of them, in fact. The downside to this is of course, is that the sauces are cold. You don’t want to put a cold sauce on hot-out-of-the-cooker wings. It makes the wings cold, obviously. The sauce isn’t as tasty, either. So just warm it up a bit. Easiest way to do that is to set it out on the counter while you cook your wings. That 15-45 minutes (depending on how you’re cooking your wings) will be enough to take some of the cold off.
