I enjoy a great plate of wings. Who doesn’t? The kind where I take a bite and just say “Oh that’s good.”. No analysis. No checklist. Just enjoy the moment. That’s what I did with these The Dirty Buffalo Spicy Garlic Ranch wings. Instead of trying to describe the sauce right off the bat, I just enjoyed my lunch. And boy did I. You know you’ve had great wings when your thought after the last bite is “I can’t wait to have those again.”.

It’s About The Sauce
I didn’t make any fancy fru-fru wings. Just some simple air fryer wings. I had tunnel vision. I wanted to get to that sauce! The Dirty Buffalo spicy garlic Ranch wings more than hit the spot. They were nicely spicy. They have a great kick to them. Not overwhelmingly so, but very enjoyable. The sauce is like a Buffalo Ranch sauce. Kind of a creamy Buffalo sauce really. All with a hint of garlic. Not a ‘ward off the vampires’ amount of garlic. Just right.
I’d eat wings tossed in this sauce all day long. Sometimes I use a lot of sauce. Some times I use less. Either way, they’re fantastic!

Brrrrrrrrrrr!
Put any leftover sauce in an air-tight container and keep it in the fridge until the next time you make wings. When it’s time to sauce your wings don’t just pour that cold sauce over them. You’ve spent all that times getting your wings perfect. Crispy skin. Perfect coating. Hot. No matter how you cooked them, you devoted time to making sure they are spot-on delicious. Do not ruin them by adding a cold sauce. First, obviously, it’ll make them cold. In an instant. And secondly, and just as important, cold sauce will make that crunchy skin un-crunchy even quicker than a hot sauce.
So bring your sauce to at least room temperature before using it. If you want, warm it on the stovetop. I’m not a fan of using a microwave to warm sauces, but you can do that if you want.
