Wing It Honey BBQ Wings

Just think. One day, perhaps not too long ago, someone at Wing It woke to what was probably a day like every other. Except it wasn’t. That day, one of the best BBQ-inspired wing sauces would be created. It was to be a special day. And in my opinion, a day worthy of being considered a national holiday. Wing It Honey BBQ wing sauce is everything you could hope for, dream for, yearn for, in a lightly smoky, sweet, tomato-based sauce. It’s not shy about being thick. It’s not shy about being sweet, either. This sauce means business. This is easily one of my favorite sauces of all time.

Could This Be The Perfect Sweet Sauce?

I absolutely cannot get enough Wing It Honey BBQ wings. Yeah, I could put this sauce on just about anything hot off the grill. Like burgers, or split chicken breasts, ribs, brisket and even pulled pork. But boy oh boy do I ever enjoy the heck out of it on my wings.

Brrrrrrrrr!

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 time 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.

Market District Thai Style Sweet Chili Wings

My wife is a big fan of any chili sauce-based wing sauce. Actually, ‘big fan’ is an understatement. I grabbed a bottle of the Thai Style Sweet Chili wing sauce from Market District knowing that she’d like it just from looking at the bottle. I could see chili sauce with peppers inside. Well, she didn’t just like this sweet, garlicky sauce. She absolutely loved it! This is easily one of the best sweeter sauces you can find. And it makes for some fantastic Market District Thai Style Sweet Chili wings!

A Wonderfully Sweet Asian-Inspired Sauce

Market District Thai Style Sweet Chili wings are definitely sweet. And not spicy at all. Neither of us got a sense of heat from it. But boy, it is delicious on wings. I admit to putting more of this sauce on my wings than I normally would. I am just as addicted to it as my wife is. It’s very much a finger-licking good sauce. If you’re looking for something sweet, this is it.

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.

What Are You Waiting For?

Go make some wings! It’s not that hard to do! My go-to method is to air-fry them. A little seasoning first. Air-fried to perfection. Fantastic aroma as they cook. Crispy skin. Juicy meat. Tender. Ready for a sauce. Air-fried wings can hold up to being tossed with sauce, so that’s what I do. If they were deep-fried with a batter I wouldn’t abuse them like that. I’d gently brush the sauce on. Or serve it on the side, for dipping.

See my guides for cooking your wings and for saucing them! I’ve got you covered!

My Trusty Wingman

My air fryer isn’t fancy. It doesn’t have any bells and whistles. Well, ok, it does have a bell when the timer goes off but that’s it. I don’t even use the timer actually. I use a timer on my phone that has two countdowns: one for 12 minutes and one for 6 minutes. That’s all I ever need to get perfect wings each and every time!
