This is not the first bottle of Torchbearer wing sauce that I’ve tried. And it won’t be the last, either. Because, like the others, Torchbearer Honey Garlic wings sauce is crazy good. Usually garlic wing sauces tend to be spicy. This variation brings the sweetness of honey for a nice tasty twist. Add in roasted garlic and you’ve got a great wing sauce!
Torchbearer Honey Garlic wings sauce isn’t just for wings, either. Although that’s certainly a good enough reason to run out and buy a few bottles. It’s also great as a marinade for chicken, fish, or shrimp! Or brush it on your hot-off-the-grill steak or pork chops!
These San Antonio wings turned out to be some of the best I’ve had. I wasn’t expecting the sauce, as simple as it was, to be so drool-worthy. I could not get enough of it. And the dipping sauce was equally fantastic, with just a slight hint of cumin giving it a nice southwestern flavor. A little heat, and a little sweet. Perfect.
The first time I made San Antonio wings I used hot picante sauce. The next, I used mild. To my surprise, I loved both equally. That’s saying something because I do normally like a good kick to my wings. Not overpowering, but a little spiciness. You can’t go wrong no matter how you make these.
Oh, and the dipping sauce isn’t just great for San Antonio wings. It’s also yummy dipping for tortilla chips.
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!
This right here is one fantastic bottled Buffalo chicken wing sauce. Heritage Fare hit this one out of the park, big time. Just the right Buffalo flavor, just the right amount of heat. And Heritage Fare Buffalo chicken wings sauce has just the right consistency, too. And that’s just as important as taste. Doesn’t matter how great tasting a sauce is if it all ends up at the bottom of a plate, and not on your wings!
I can’t recommend Heritage Fare Buffalo Chicken Wings Sauce enough. I loved it. Sure, you can make a Buffalo wing sauce at home easy enough, but you’re going to have a hard time beating the taste and convenience of it right out of the bottle.
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.

I do love eating chicken wings. They might be my favorite food. I recently picked up a bottle of Moore’s Creamy Ranch Buffalo wings sauce. It looked good and thick and flavorful. And boy, was it all that and more. Not so thick that it was gloppy, the sauce stuck to the wings just as you want it to. And flavor? Oh man. A nice mellow Ranch flavor that definitely does not overwhelm, with just a hint of spiciness. This sauce is perfect for a party because it’s sure to please all of your guests.
If I’d known just how fantastic Moore’s Creamy Ranch Buffalo wings sauce was I would’ve definitely left the Ranch dressing off my plate. You seriously don’t need anything else with these sauced up wings. Just grab a big ole handful of them and a lot of paper towels and get to eating!

I’ve said it before. If you’re standing in the wing sauce section of the grocery store, trying to decide on the next sauce you’re going to grab for a great batch of wings, do not hesitate to try the store brand. I was at Kroger, and I couldn’t help myself. I grabbed one each of every one of their sauces, including the Kroger Mild Buffalo Wings Sauce. The sauce turned out to be perfect! Just a hint of heat (perfect for a party) and the perfect consistency. This is a mighty fine wing sauce, and boy, the price was right!
If you by chance end up with any leftover Kroger mild Buffalo wings sauce, toss it in the fridge. Make sure you warm it a bit (at least to room temperature) before using it on your next batch of wings. Nothing makes hot wings sad faster than tossing them in cold wing sauce!
This right here is yet another example of why you should not poo-poo generic wing sauces. I absolutely love all of the Meijer wing sauces. Meijer’s Medium Buffalo wing sauce is lightly spicy, has that great Buffalo wing flavor, and has the perfect consistency. And consistency is important. Too many less-expensive sauces are 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.
Here in Indy at least, Meijer’s wing sauces are all under $3 for a 12 ounce bottle. That’s a really good price, and I often find them on sale for $2.80 or even less. That’s back-up-the-truck and load-up-on-wing sauce time for me. You can’t beat the price or the flavor, be it the Meijer medium Buffalo wing sauce or any other flavor. And they’re all-natural to boot!
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, specially 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?
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.
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.

Combine the Dr Pepper, hot sauce and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat.
Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Let simmer for about 30 minutes or until reduced by half and slightly thickened.
If you want your sauce a little thicker, place the corn starch in a cup, small bowl or glass. Add in 1/4 cup or so of the sauce and stir to combine. Pour into the sauce pan and stir to thicken.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving.
If you’ve got friends that can’t handle the heat from spicy foods, then Texas Pete’s Extra Mild Buffalo Wings sauce is exactly what you are looking for. It has that great Buffalo flavor but without so much of the kick. Now, there’s a bit, but it’s not going to upset anyone, even the most heat-sensitive.
This sauce is a thinner sauce, as many Buffalo-style wing sauces are. If you put it directly on super-hot right-off-the-grill or fresh-out-of-the-fryer wings you’re going to end up with some sauce at the bottom of your plate. Let the wings rest a few minutes first before saucing them. But don’t wait too long, you don’t want your wings to get cold!

Wow. I’ve got to stop being so surprised as to how great the wing sauces are from Meijer. I mean no disrespect to the fine people at Meijer, but I wasn’t expecting such great flavor and texture from a well, cheaper, sauce. I’ve loved every one I’ve tried and I’ll be getting more and more, again and again. The Meijer honey barbecue wing sauce is spot on. Low in heat, but high in flavor. A little sweet with a little smoky. I’m willing to bet this sauce would be equally as great on ribs or pulled pork. It’s darned good!
Meijer has a full line of wing sauces. Check them out! They’re all natural and don’t contain anything ‘weird’ in them. And another plus is that they come in glass bottles. None of that strange plastic flavor going on here. Just good stuff just like this Meijer Honey Barbecue wing sauce.
I was big time happy with these angry chicken wings. ‘Angry’ because they pack a little kick, but not so much that your mouth is on fire. A very nice kick. This was my first time cooking with gochujang chile paste, and I really loved it. It’s sort of savory, sort of sweet, and sort of spicy. It contains fermented soybeans but the flavor isn’t overwhelming. A little gochujang does go a long ways, but it sure makes for one fantastic wing sauce.
The angry chicken wing sauce would also be good on grilled pork chops or grilled ground chicken or turkey burgers. Just dab a little on top before you dig in. If you make the sauce ahead of time and keep it in the fridge, it might thicken up a bit. Just add a few drops of water and stir to get the desired consistency.
