Ott’s Original Wing Sauce Wings

I love opening a bottle of wing sauce that I’ve never tried. There’s that moment of anticipation. Will I be wowed? Will I be un-wowed? Well, welcome to ‘wowed’ and then some. These Ott’s Original Wing Sauce wings were crazy great. As soon as I opened the bottle I noticed the aroma of one of my favorite spices: celery seed. I use it often in slaws and salad dressings. But I don’t think I’ve ever found it (at least not noticeably) in a Buffalo wing sauce. This is one wonderful take on a classic sauce. Oh did I mention it has a bit of a spicy kick too? Yep, it does. Not too hot but it brings a little heat for sure. I’d call it ‘spot on’ heat.

Make Some Wings. Any Wings.

You can make your wings however you prefer. I decided to air fry mine. No matter which way you go, I suggest you don’t over-season your wings. Go light. Maybe just salt and pepper. At most. You don’t want something that’ll fight the sauce. These Ott’s Original Wing Sauce wings are more about the sauce than the wing. That doesn’t mean that your wings have to be blah. Just don’t go crazy with them. The spices in this sauce are amazing and you’ll want to enjoy them.

I found this sauce at a Schnucks grocery store in Bloomington, IL. We were in town to hit a few antique stores up for finds. I always make it a point to visit the local grocery stores in search of new wing sauces and I found this one. I’m so glad I did!

Margaritaville Mango Habanero Wing Sauce Wings

Fruity. Spicy. Sweet. Ah, what a great sauce. This one didn’t last long in my house. My Margaritaville Mango Habanero wing sauce wings were a big favorite from the first taste. You can make wings any way you want. Heck, grab some frozen ones from the grocery store and cook them up like the bag says. Or make them from scratch. Me, I just threw some fresh wings into my air fryer then sauced them up. The sauce is the star here. Don’t put any seasoning on your wings that might fight with the sauce.

More Than A Wing Sauce

My first thought with any bottled sauce is ‘wings’. Even if it doesn’t say just ‘wings’. The bottle for Mango Habanero wing sauce from Margaritaville also says ‘marinade’. And it’d be mighty great for that too. It could also say ‘dipping sauce’ because I can definitely see grabbing another bottle and using that for deep-fried shrimp dipping. It’s not a thick sauce, so it’d be great for more than just wings. So grab more than one bottle. You’ll need it.
