Smoky Chipotle Wings

I’ve been seriously addicted to making dry wings, like these smoky chipotle wings. My wife and I recently spent a few days in lovely Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania while attending a conference. I made sure I had my ‘to-eat’ list down before leaving, because one thing you can be sure of finding in Pittsburgh: good food. At the top of my list was dry chicken wings. No, not dry like ‘ewww, this meat is dry’. Dry as in the wings aren’t tossed in sauce after being cooked. Instead they are dusted with seasoning. The end result is almost like roasted chicken, but with much more pronounced flavors.

Smoky Chipotle Wings

A Little Smoke. A Little Heat.

When you first taste the rub for these smoky chipotle wings you might think they’ll come out super spicy. Maybe too spicy for grandma. Well, no, actually. The heat mellows a bit while the wings cook. You’re left with a slightly smoky, slightly sweet, and a bit of heat flavor that is absolutely crazy good. Good enough for grandma, though you might want to run the idea by her first.

Smoky chipotle wings would be absolutely perfect served any time, but they’d really make a great appetizer for the big game. They’re easy to make and packed with flavor.

I like to make my spice, rub and seasoning mixes in big batches and keep them in large bottles with easy-to-pour shaker lids.

Roasted Green Chile Wings

One of the things I love about being addicted to cooking and eating chicken wings is that 99 times out of 100, every new recipe I try is just absolutely fantastic. I dream about chicken wings. A lot. And these roasted green chile wings, well, they were crazy good and certainly dream-worthy. I love chile peppers for the pepper flavor. And although I also love spicy, my number one love is that great pepper flavor, and the roasted green chile jelly from Albukirky Seasonings brings that and then some without scary spiciness.

Roasted Green Chile Wings

Great Rubs… And Sauces, Too!

The Albukirky Seasonings green chile BBQ rub (and also the red chile BBQ rub) has quickly become my go-to wing rub. It’s just perfect on wings (and other things, too, but I really, really enjoy it on wings). Combined with the green chile jelly, the roasted green chile wings made for a lunch that I won’t soon forget.

Restaurant-Style Deep-Fried Wings

Most of the time, you’ll find me making my wings on one of my grills. Quite regularly, actually. But sometimes I am just not up to fighting the weather or I prefer a more traditional wing. That’s when my restaurant-style deep-fried wings make an appearance. For me, a deep-fried wing has to be battered, but not heavily so. Somewhere between grandma’s fried chicken and no-batter-at-all is what I want. Something for the wing sauce to stick to, and something with just a little crunch. A little kick, if I want. Like these wings, right here.

Restaurant-Style Deep-Fried Wings

My Go-To Recipe

This is my base recipe for my restaurant-style deep-fried wings. When I’m cooking dry wings (not sauced after cooking), I will often take the dry wing spices and incorporate them into the coating, leaving out the paprika and/or cayenne if they will clash. My Buffalo Ranch dry wings are a great example.

Big Wings Take Longer (Duh!)

Frying time varies with the size of your wings. I always buy family packs of fresh wings. They’re big and meaty and take a full 9 minutes or longer to fry. If you buy frozen un-cooked wings (thaw them first!) you’ll often find they are smaller and don’t require so much cooking time.

Quaker Steak and Lube Smoked Jalapeno Honey Wing Sauce Wings

I love to make my own wing sauces, but I have to admit, I’m a sucker for bottled sauces too. Specially when they’re as good as the Smoked Jalapeno Honey wing sauce from Quaker Steak and Lube. My wife and I had lunch at a Quaker Steak and Lube on the north side of Cincinnati.

I enjoyed a big ole helping of their fantastic wings tossed in just the right amount of Smoked Jalapeno Honey sauce. And yes, after one bite I decided I was going home with a bottle of the sauce for my homemade wings. Just the right amount of heat and sweet, with a little light smokiness, this sauce is very tasty and not spicy enough to scare off your I-don’t-like-spicy friends.

A Pantry Full Of Wing Sauces

I would say that I on occasion have a good number of wing sauce bottles on hand. That used to worry me, but honestly, I eat wings so often that they don’t last very long at all. Especially when they are as good as the Smoked Jalapeno Honey wing sauce from Quaker Steak and Lube. I wish they had a restaurant here in Indy. I do love their wings (though they certainly serve a lot more than wings).

Private Selection Peach Carolina Reaper Wing Sauce Wings

Here we are again. Another great wing sauce. This is not the first time I’ve been highly impressed with a wing sauce from Private Selection. I found it at Kroger. Each and every bottle has been packed with excitingly new flavors. Like this Private Selection Peach Carolina Reaper wing sauce. Oh it’s spicy. If you’re not familiar with the Carolina Reaper, it’s one of the hottest peppers in the world. I admit it, I was a bit apprehensive taking my first taste of this sauce. Oh, it’s hot, but it’s not just spicy. It’s wonderfully sweet, with a hint of peaches. I really like this sauce. Despite it being on the hot side!

Private Selection Peach Carolina Reaper Wings

Spicy. And Oh So Tasty.

I’ve found myself using Private Selection Peach Carolina Reaper wing sauce on more than just wings. I love it drizzled on fried chicken. And it makes for a crazy good crazy spicy dipping sauce for chicken nuggets too. And what goes better with pork than peaches? Yep, brush it on grilled pork chops or pork loin too!

Orange Wings

The idea for these orange chicken wings came to me quite easily. I had made a big, huge batch of orange chicken on my Char-Broil Big Easy and had a good amount of orange chicken sauce leftover.  Any time I have leftover sauce I think wings. The sauce has the perfect citrus flavor, with just a bit of heat and just a bit of sweetness. The perfect balance of flavors, making every wing a great taste experience. I loved it and could actually just drink the sauce.

Orange Wings

Orange Wings. Yes, Orange.

I recommend only using fresh oranges for these orange chicken wings. After zesting one orange, juice it and then juice a few others until you get 3 cups. In a pinch, or when oranges aren’t in season, use a good quality orange juice. You want get that extra punch you get from the zest, but you’ll still end up with fantastic wings.

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!

Mexican Wings

I have been enjoying the heck out of the flavors of wing sauces I picked up from the House of Wings. Each and every one has been fantastic. Another cool thing about House of Wings is that on their website they have recipes for using their sauces and a few other simple ingredients to create all-new flavors. Like these Mexican chicken wings. They’re crazy easy and crazy delicious and definitely spicy. There’s nothing fancy going on here, just a great wing sauce. The kind you cannot stop eating.

Mexican Wings

Heat, Your Way

It’s easy to customize the heat in these Mexican chicken wings to suit your fancy. All you have to do is adjust the ratio of Southern wing sauce to the Nuclear wing sauce. Want more heat? Cut back on the Southern or just add more Nuclear. Less heat? Add more Southern and/or cut back on the Nuclear. My recommendation is that you add the Nuclear sauce slowly, stirring, tasting as you go, until you get the kick you want.

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!

Meijer Korean BBQ Style Wing Sauce Wings

We live in Meijer country. Which is a good thing because I love the bottled wing sauces from Meijer . I first bought them when they were on sale, as sort of a trial run. Now I’ll pick some up any time I’m at the store. Like all of their sauces,  Meijer Korean BBQ style wing sauce is mighty darned tasty. American BBQ sauces are vinegar- or tomato-based. Korean BBQ sauces are soy sauce-based. The sauce has the perfect consistency, sticking to the wings but not glopping up. Too thick is not a good thing when it comes to wing sauces. Neither is too thin.

Meijer Korean BBQ Style Wings

Sweet, Savory and a little Spicy

Korean BBQ actually means a way of preparing meats. Here in the US we’ve associated the terms with flavors. That flavor is a little sweet, a little savory and just a bit spicy. Meijer Korean BBQ style wing sauce is not only great on wings, either. It’s fantastic on smoked ribs, grilled burgers, or my other favorite, grilled chicken breast sandwiches.

Buttery Popcorn Wings

There are times in your life when you just kick back for a second and think ‘oh yeah, that’s what I needed’. And you smile. Hopefully that happens often for you. It did for me as soon as I took a bite of my buttery popcorn wings. I often have popcorn for a side with my lunch. It’s tasty and low-carb. And I even might squirt a little buttery popcorn oil on it. Well, the other day I was sitting there enjoying a hot-out-of-the-air-fryer dry wing and looking at my bowl of popcorn and boom! Duh! I sure love that buttery flavor, I thought. I looked at my wings. And I looked at the popcorn. The next, as they say, is history.

Buttery Popcorn Wings

Extra Butter And Napkins, Please

Yeah, I’ve seen it. And I’ve done it. Asked the person at the concession stand at the movie theater to put a couple extra pumps of butter on my popcorn. You can do that with these buttery popcorn wings too. Heck, you’re at home. No one’s watching. Load up. But, really… Don’t do it. I think there is a such thing as too much butter. Just this one time. Every other time, yes, load up. Here, you’re going for the kiss of buttery flavor goodness. And a great wing seasoning, too. The two go together well. Don’t drown them. Trust me.
