Buffalo Wild Wings Sweet and Sour Wing Sauce Wings

I have had my share of store-bought (and restaurant-bought) wing sauce wings. So many that I have compiled a huge list of them just to keep track. Many have been good. Several have been amazing. These Buffalo Wild Wings Sweet and Sour wing sauce wings fall into the ‘amazing’ category for me. Without any doubt, this is easily one of my favorite slightly-sweet, slightly tangy, mild-heat sauces. Load up on this sauce because you can’t find it in the restaurants.

Buffalo Wild Wings Sweet and Sour Wing Sauce Wings

Make Wings. Sauce Wings. Devour Wings.

This isn’t some complicated thing here. I made some wings in my air fryer. All I did was season them lightly. I didn’t use anything that would ‘fight’ the sauce. Heck, a little salt and pepper is just fine here. The sauce is the boss. These Buffalo Wild Wings Sweet and Sour wing sauce wings are a real winner. I was sorry to see the last drop of sauce disappear.

  • Lightly spray the basket of your air fryer with non-stick spray. Preheat per manufacturer’s recommendation.

  • Cook at 360 F for 12 minutes for large wings, 10 minutes for smaller ones.
  • Carefully flip the wings (rotate the drumettes if they are standing) and cook another 12 minutes again (10 minutes for smaller wings) at 375 F.
  • Flip the wings one last time. Increase the temperature to 390 F and cook another 6 minutes (4 minutes for smaller wings).
  • Remove and toss with your favorite wing sauce.  Click here for our guide on how to sauce your wings.

Spicy Sweet and Sour Wings

These spicy sweet and sour wings are proof that it really doesn’t take a pantry full of ingredients to make a fantastic wing sauce. It truly doesn’t get any easier than this. Just open two bottles, pour into a bowl and mix. That’s it. And the cool part is that you get to decide how sweet you want it to be. Or how spicy. It’s impossible to mess up this sauce.

Sweet And Sour Needed Some Heat

I opted for Crystal Hot sauce in my spicy sweet and sour wings sauce. It’s got great flavor and just the right heat level for me. Sure, I’ve got hotter hot sauces around. If I was craving hotter wings, I would’ve used them. And if I’m more on the even milder side, I’ve got sauces for that too.
