Kirkwood Honey BBQ Chicken Wings

I’m a fresh wing kinda guy. Usually. Sometimes I don’t have time to prepare wings from scratch. Or worse, I can’t find fresh wings in my grocery store. Or I just want to try something new. I was in Aldi the other day, picking up fresh wings (they have great fresh wings). I decided to check out the freezer cases before I headed to the checkout. And there they were. Kirkwood Honey BBQ chicken wings (and Buffalo style wings, too!). They looked good. I bought them. And I made them. And you know what? They were good!

Kirkwood Honey BBQ Chicken Wings

Actual Wings. No Weird Stuff.

I’ve purchased some weird looking frozen wings. They were pre-battered, like these. But they didn’t look like wings. Kirkwood Honey BBQ chicken wings are pre-battered. And they look like wings. Because they are actual wings. They’re sauced just right, in a sauce with good BBQ flavor and a hint of sweetness. They’re meaty. I liked them. A lot.

These wings are sauced. A lot. No searching for sauce on these. It’s everywhere. So grab a pile of napkins!

Seven Servings. LOL.

The 22 ounce bag of wings I bought said it was 7 servings. Maybe somewhere in an alternate universe of really tiny people. Not me. I’d call them 4 servings at most. If you’re having a big party and need a bunch of wings, these are going to go over great. Just make sure you buy more than you think you’ll need. They’re good and people will want more. You bet I did.

I baked my wings on a silicone mat. I tried what the instructions on the bag stated and sprayed a baking pan with non-stick spray, but found that the wings still stuck. The silicone mat was much better.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F.
  • If you have a silicone baking mat, line a baking sheet with the mat and add the wings. If you do not have a silicone baking mat, liberally spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray and add the wings. I prefer to start with the bone-side of the wings down (for flats). For the drums it doesn't matter.
  • Bake for 15 minutes. Gently turn the wings. I use a fork or rubber spatula for this. I've found that tongs will tend to tear the coating/skin if the wings stick any.
  • Bake another 10-15 minutes or until turning lightly golden in color and the wings internal temperature is 165 F.
  • Let the wings rest for 5 minutes before serving. They will still be piping hot so be careful!

Notes

Serve with your favorite dipping sauce on the side, if desired.

Kinder’s Habanero Pineapple Air Fryer Dry Wings

These Kinder’s Habanero Pineapple air fryer dry wings are kinda different. The seasoning has a bit of a sweetness to it. A bit of tropical flavor. Oh then comes the heat. Good heat. A nice stingy heat. Each bite is a ‘welcome to the islands’ kiss. With a rough edge to it. These are great dry wings that are a bit different than the dry wings you usually get or make.

Kinder's Habanero Pineapple Air Fryer Dry Wings

Season. Cook. Season.

I like to double-season my Kinder’s Habanero Pineapple air fryer dry wings. First, I give my fresh wings a bit of a seasoning before going into the air fryer. It’s like a dry marinade in a way. You can even let the wings set for up to 2 hours, absorbing that flavor, before cooking. Then, after they come out of the fryer all golden brown with crispy skin, I toss them in more seasoning. While they are still hot. That’s when the oils are still on the surface of the wings, ready and willing to take on more seasoning. That’s when you hit them with more. Oh yeah!

Got Seasonings?

You have to take care of your dry seasonings. In return, they’ll take care of you by always being ready the next time you need them! Protect seasonings from the four main enemies of flavor: heat, light, air, and moisture. Never store them above the stove or oven, where steam and temperature swings cause caking and quick degradation. If you have a problem with high humidity causing your dry seasonings to cake, try adding a silica gel packet to the containers to remove moisture.

Tyson Caribbean Style Crispy Wings

I eat my share of wings. And then some. Usually, that means picking up a family pack of 3-4 pounds of fresh wings at the grocery store and cooking them up in whatever way I want. But, I also always keep some frozen, pre-made wings on hand for ‘wing emergencies’. And because, well, I like them. I picked up a bag of these Tyson Caribbean Style crispy wings and made them the other day. While they were cooking they gave off an aroma that got my mouth watering big time. Then I got to eating…

Tyson Caribbean Style Crispy Wings

Crunchy Battered Yumminess

Tyson Caribbean Style crispy wings are a variety of wing pieces that are seasoned and battered. Some pieces are big, some are small and some are in-between. All you have to do is toss them into the air fryer or oven for a little bit. They come out hot and crispy. They have a hint of spiciness to them, with a slight hint of island-inspired flavors. The seasoning is not overwhelming. It’s very nice and right down the middle of the road as far as not being too strong. You could easily serve these wings to a crowd for the big game, though you’d probably want to make them in the oven since you can only do a small amount at a time in the air fryer.

A Little Extra Cook Time

I like to cook these wings a few more minutes longer than the bag states for the normal cooking time. It could just be my air fryer or oven. But I do like crunchier wings, and that extra time gets me to wing happiness.

Not Just For Football Games

You can easily cook up a batch of these wings and serve them with your favorite sides for a meal. Don’t just think of them as handheld goodies for the big game. They’re great any time! So make some Caribbean rice and maybe some black beans and enjoy!

Holy Garlic Dry Wings

The fine folks over at Fire and Smoke Society ain’t messin’ around. When they say that this all-purpose blend is blessed by Garlic Lovers you know they’re telling the truth. But these Holy Garlic dry wings aren’t just about garlic. Charcoal, chiles, brown sugar and plenty of ground black pepper join the party to make for a fantastic seasoning for wings, be they dry or wet. Me, I went dry so I could enjoy every bite of chicken and the seasoning without ‘fighting’ a sauce.

Holy Garlic! Wings

More Garlic Flavor is More Better

My Holy Garlic dry wings were made in an air fryer. You can cook them any way you want, just don’t be shy with the spices. I put a little of the delicious seasoning on the wings before cooking the wings. Then when they were cooked to perfection, I went to town with some more seasoning. The wonderful aroma of garlic filled the house. It was time to chow down on some delicious wings! And I did!

Kinder’s Gold BBQ Sauce Wings

It didn’t take me long to realize that if the label says ‘Kinder’s‘, it’s going to be great. Seasoning, sauces, it doesn’t matter what it is, I’m going to love it. That’s why I knew these Kinder’s Gold BBQ sauce wings would be great. Long before I even took that first bite, I knew I was in for something good. Sweet and tangy, the lightly smoky sauce is a wonderful combination of mustard, tomato and vinegar. There’s a lot going on in this sauce, and it’s all good.

Kinder's Gold BBQ Wings

Cook. Sauce. Devour.

Some gold BBQ sauces are a little too ‘gold’ for me. They’re too mustardy. Not this one. This sauce is perfectly balanced. I think of a wonderful marriage between a North Carolina mustard sauce and a KC tomato-based sauce with every bite. Kinder’s Gold BBQ sauce wings are a great thing.

I never go to the grocery store and browse the BBQ sauce aisle thinking just ‘BBQ’. I know that any sauce is going to be great on wings too. So sure, this is a great sauce on ribs. Or burgers. Or anything grilled. But it’s also amazing on wings. Give it a shot!

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.

Kinder’s Black Cherry Chipotle Dry Wings

Wow. Just wow. I’ve had my share of different flavors of dry wings but these Kinder’s black cherry chipotle wings are different and then some. Tart and sweet, I could not stop eating them. No sauce required. No Ranch or blue cheese dressing required. Just good ole wings and seasoning. I used an air fryer but you can cook them any way you like. Just make sure to load them up on the seasoning because they are delicious.

Kinder's Black Cherry Chipotle Dry Wings

Head To The Spice Aisle

I found this seasoning near a bunch of other seasonings in the store. It wasn’t the ‘Wing Section’ of the store either. This is why it pays to look around and think to yourself ‘would that be good on wings?’. The answer is often yes. It was a definite ‘yes’ when it came to these Kinder’s black cherry chipotle dry wings.

Surprise!

If you’re looking to get some looks of happiness and surprise, serve these wings next time you’re watching the big game with friends. They’ll be more than pleasantly surprised at just how good and different they are.

La Preferida Hot Wings

You can’t go wrong with a batch of La Preferida hot wings. The sauce is what I would call your pretty much standard Buffalo wing sauce. Not too spicy but with a good kick. Rightly seasoned. To be truthful, with a trusted name like La Preferida on the label, I was expecting a little something different. A twist. A little special seasoning. That didn’t happen. But, these are still good wings.

La Preferida Hot Wings

A Rarity?

I found a bottle of La Preferida hot wing sauce at a specialty grocery store in Cincinnati. I can’t find it online anywhere. Heck, I even tried contacting the company to see what the deal is and why I can’t find it anywhere. I wanted to make more La Preferida hot wings.

Fried. Or Not.

I made my wings my standard fried way. Just a light coating. Fried to perfection. Then sauced. That’s it. Well, that and happiness. I love deep-fried wings. But it’s usually just me I’m cooking for. So there’s no reason for me to drag out my big deep-fryer that could easily cook for a crowd. No, this calls for my Fry Daddy. Perfect for one-to-four people’s-worth of wings. And it doesn’t use a lot of oil, that’s a major plus. It gets to temperature quickly and maintains it even when I add cold wings. It’s priced right too and lasts forever!

Tyson Korean BBQ Frozen Wings

I’m usually a make-them-fresh wing kinda guy. But I am also open to trying just about any wing you can make, including the ones I find in bags or boxes in the freezer section of my local grocery. I don’t usually have really high expectations for them. Often the ‘wings’ are small or don’t have much meat. Or are inconsistent in size and taste. So I tend to be kinda pessimistic when I buy them. I have to say, though, that I was pretty impressed with these Tyson Korean BBQ frozen wings. Meaty? Yep. Tasty? Yep.

Tyson Korean BBQ Frozen Wings

They Look Like Wings!

It might seem strange to be surprised that these Tyson Korean BBQ frozen wings look like wings. I’ve had some weird looking frozen wings before. I open the bag or box and wonder what I’m looking at. Not these, though. They looked like flats and drummies. I could recognize them. So right off the bat, things were looking good!

And They’re Tasty, Too!

These wings are coated in a kinda tangy Korean BBQ sauce. And not sorta coated. Unlike some wings, these wings have flavor all around, everywhere. These wings are not spicy. A little sweet but there’s no heat. I thought the sauce was quite tasty actually. I’d happily buy a bottle of this sauce by itself and use it on my own wings!

Bayou Bourre Louisiana Boil Wings

I’ll never look at a bottle of hot sauce the same way again. The fine folks over at Bayou Gotham changed my world when they came out with Bayou Bourré Louisiana Boil sauce. Heat-wise, this sauce has just a little nice gentle kick to it. But flavor-wise, this sauce is insanely great. I devoured my Bayou Bourre Louisiana Boil wings in no time at all.

Bayou Bourre Louisiana Boil Wings

Crab Boil Heaven

I am a crab boil addict. I love the flavors. This sauce brings all that. It’s a wonderful combination of spiciness (but not super spicy at all!), citrus, onions, celery, corn and potatoes. Yes, you read that correctly. It’s all in these Bayou Bourre Louisiana Boil wings. You see it all in the bottle. It looks good just sitting there. It’s like flavor art in a bottle.

Butter Up. Or Don’t.

I usually mix a little melted butter with my hot sauce before saucing on my wings. It’s what I call my Two Ingredient wing sauce. Pretty sneaky naming, huh? Well, sometimes you run into a hot sauce where you may not want to do this. Bayou Bourré Louisiana Boil sauce is a good example. So here’s what I recommend. Taste the sauce. If you love it out of the bottle (and you will), just pour it on your wings. No need to add butter. But if you want a little buttery flavor (ala classic Buffalo wing flavors), add a little. Not a lot. Heat it and melt it and stir. Taste. Good? Put it on your wings. Want more butter? Go for it.

There’s no wrong here. This sauce makes for amazing wings no matter if you add butter or not.

Dan-O’s Original Seasoning Dry Wings

Have you seen those machines you can buy to make your house smell good? I always look at them and scratch my head. Why do you need one of those when all you need to make your home smell outrageously fantastic is to make some Dan-O’s Original Seasoning dry wings? And as an added bonus, after you get the homestead smellin’ good, you can enjoy some delicious wings! How much more of a win-win could you need? Or want?

Dan-O's Original Seasoning Dry Wings

Herby Deliciousness

Dan-O’s Original Seasoning was invented for poultry. Rosemary. Garlic. Good stuff that you might normally find on a roast turkey or chicken. Well, don’t forget the wings! These Dan-O’s Original Seasoning dry wings are what roasted wings should be. Crispy skin. Wonderful herby flavors. Moist, tender meat.

A Twist On My Usual Dry Wings

I’m a huge fan of dry wings. It’s hard for me to resist super-seasoned wings with that great crunchy skin. Usually, I season my wings before cooking and then again after for extra flavor. For these wings, however, I go with one good, healthy seasoning beforehand. That’s it. No post-cook seasoning required or needed. These are great wings without it. If you want more you can surely toss or sprinkle the cooked wings just before serving.

Got Seasonings?

You have to take care of your dry seasonings. In return, they’ll take care of you by always being ready the next time you need them! Protect seasonings from the four main enemies of flavor: heat, light, air, and moisture. Never store them above the stove or oven, where steam and temperature swings cause caking and quick degradation. If you have a problem with high humidity causing your dry seasonings to cake, try adding a silica gel packet to the containers to remove moisture.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Combine the Dan-O's seasoning and garlic salt.
  • Season the wings with the mix. Let rest 30 minutes.

For the air fryer

  • Preheat your air fryer to 350 F.
  • Working in batches if needed, air fry the wings for 12 minutes.
  • Flip the wings and air fry another 12 minutes.
  • Turn the air fryer temperature to 400 F and fry another 6 minutes or until the wings are golden brown.

For the oven

  • Preheat oven to 400 F.
  • Lightly spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray. Or line with foil.
  • Add the wings and cook 20 minutes.
  • Flip and cook another 20 minutes.
  • Check for doneness. For crispier wings, flip and cook another 10-20 minutes.

Notes

I prefer to season my wings immediately after cooking them. The seasoning will stick to the surface of the hot wings better than if you wait until they cool off.
