Balance. That’s what I want in a hot Buffalo wing sauce. I don’t want too much vinegar, or butter, or cayenne or whatever else might be in there. I want to taste every ingredient without just one burying the rest. Balance is exactly what you’ll find in Fricker’s Hot Wings. I picked up a bottle of their hot Buffalo-inspired sauce last time I was in a restaurant. As soon as I got home, I made a quick batch of air fryer wings and proceeded to toss them in the sauce. And in no time, they were gone!
The Right Amount of Heat
I really like the heat level and taste of Fricker’s hot wings. When a bottle says ‘hot’ I want some heat, but I don’t want to be on my knees begging for the pain to stop, either. This sauce has just the right spiciness for me. And I really, really love the flavor. It’s a very ‘pleasant’ sauce, one that makes me happy again and again.
Any seasoning that is ‘normally’ used for adding flavor to wings that will eventually end up being sauced can be used to make what are called ‘dry’ wings. I’m a huge fan of dry wings and rank them up there with any sauced wings. These Lawry’s spicy Buffalo dry wings bring classic Buffalo wing flavor with a really nice amount of spicy kick. These are finger-lickingly good wings.
What Dry Wings Should Be
Lawry’s spicy Buffalo dry wings might make you forget about saucing your next batch of wings. Yeah, you can still sauce them. But try them without first and if you haven’t already, you’ll come over to the ‘dry side’. These wings are packed with great flavor.
If I am serving my wings with Ranch or blue cheese or some other sauce, I use these little sauce dipping cups. They’re the perfect size for dipping wings, nuggets, tenders and even vegetables. And even better, they’re super easy to clean!
Buffalo Wild Wings Hot Buffalo Wings sauce is what hot Buffalo wings should be. The right amount of vinegar. The right amount of spices. And just enough heat. Not ‘burn the roof off my mouth’ hot, either. Spicy, but not painful. When I crave a traditional wing sauce from a bottle, I grab this.
Great Traditional Flavor with a Kick
I don’t usually deep fry my wings, but I did when I made these Buffalo Wild Wings Hot Buffalo Wings. Not sure what inspired me to do that. I was craving a traditional wing, and that’s what I got. Lightly-coated wings give the sauce something to cling to. Great Buffalo wing flavor in every bite! So get online or run to your local BW3 and get a bottle now!
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 love savory chicken wings. I love sweet chicken wings. And I love wings that are a bit spicy. For me that usually means not super spicy. Well, I made an exception to that rule with these Five-Alarm Buffalo wings. I’m not sure what possessed me to do it, but I woke up one morning and decided I was going to make the hottest wings I could stand so I did. And you know what? I was totally surprised by just how much I loved them!
Tasty Spiciness
If you want to tame back the heat (thank you Frank’s RedHot!) on these five-alarm Buffalo wings just cut back on the habanero hot sauce. I went full-bore. Yeah, they were spicy and my eyes may have watered a bit but they were TASTY! Usually my argument against things super hot is that the spiciness hides the flavors. Not so on these wings. I’d make them again. And I’d have plenty of Ranch dressing around for dipping…
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!
Nothing makes me happier than discovering a wing sauce that can be used on much more than ‘just’ wings. The sauce on these adobo Buffalo wings packs some mild heat, just enough and just right. There’s a little sweetness, a little smokiness, and my favorite, a hint of soy sauce. Each bite is a wonderful combination of flavors.
One great sauce!
The sauce on these adobo Buffalo wings is thick, thick enough for sticking to smoked or grill ribs, chicken, burgers… you name it. I’d definitely recommend doubling the sauce.
Kick it up a bit!
For a little more kick add more adobo, cayenne or red chili flakes. You can also substitute hot sauce for the Buffalo wing sauce, but the Buffalo sauce does add that nice traditional wing flavor.

If cooking wings on a grill brush them with the glaze 5 minutes before removing, otherwise brush or toss the wings with the glaze and serve. Click here for our guide on how to sauce wings.
For the glaze
Combine all ingredients except for the cornstarch in a large sauce pan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and continue simmering, stirring, for 15-20 minutes.
Add salt to taste.
Combine the cornstarch with water. Slowly whisk into the glaze.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly before pouring thru a whisk.
Keep warm over low heat until ready to use. If too thick stir in a little (very little!) water a time to get the desired consistency.
