This is it. The pinnacle of wings from a chain restaurant, Hooter’s 3 Mile Island wing sauce wings. But made at home with little fuss and tons of reward. Yeah, they’re spicy. They’re mighty spicy in fact. But tasty too. Heat and tasty are a good thing. Lightly breaded and fried in no time, these are definitely one of my favorite wings of all time.
Buckle Up, It’s Going To Be A Spicy Ride
For me, these wings have just the right amount of heat. I mean heck yeah, they’re spicy. If you’re not really into that kick, you can make Hooter’s traditional hot wing sauce wings at home too. Same great flavor without all the heat.

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.
