Wing-Time Thai Chili Buffalo Wings

I, like a lot of people, am a big fan of the Buffalo wing sauces from Wing-Time. They’re creamy, delicious, and come in different heat levels so they’re great for anyone and any occasion. So I was excited when I came across the Wing-Time Thai Chili Buffalo wing sauce in the grocery store. But, honestly, the first taste killed that excitement pretty quick. For a Buffalo sauce, this is another great sauce. But I got no Thai Chili flavor at all. I tried, too. I even asked others to taste it. Nothing. What happened? I don’t know. So, good Buffalo sauce, but not a Thai Chili sauce in my opinion.

Wing-Time Thai Chili Buffalo Wings

I’m Kinda Sad. Actually, I Am Sad.

I couldn’t find any contact info for Wing-Time online. Their website is gone. Their Facebook page is inactive. Fortunately, though, the manufacturer of their sauces, Allied Old English, is still around (but didn’t respond to a DM on FB). Boy, I sure hope this means that their sauces will still be available online and in stores. I also hope that my experience with the Wing-Time Thai Chili Buffalo wing sauce was a fluke! Because I sure do love their other sauces. Maybe my bottle got mis-labelled!

Melinda’s Creamy Style Habanero Wings

Heat and flavor need not be separate things. Melinda’s Creamy Style Habanero wings bring that kick and then some, and all with some delicious pepper taste to boot. Cayenne and habaneros are combined to make this a sauce you won’t soon forget. I consider these to be Buffalo wings on steroids. The bottle says the spice level is 3 out of 5. I was thinking they might be pretty close to a 4….

Legend Larry’s Garlic Parmesan Wings

There are a good number of garlic Parmesan wing sauces on the market. I knew that the one from Legend Larry’s would stand above the crowd. All of their wing sauces do. This sauce is just the right consistency. With just the right balance of garlic and Parmesan, with a hint of black pepper. It’s herbaceous, not wimpy.

Legend Larry's Garlic Parmesan Wings

Oh. So. Good. A Wonderful Wing Sauce

Legend Larry’s garlic Parmesan wing sauce hit the spot on my wings. But with that first bite I knew it’d also be great on more. I could definitely see using it on a salad as dressing. Or on pasta. Or as a chicken marinade. It’s got the right flavor and can be used on a lot of dishes, but it really shines the best on wings!

Kosmos Q Seven Pepper Face Lift Dry Wings

You probably don’t need me to tell you that there’s a lot of pepper in this seasoning. Kosmos Q Seven Pepper Face Lift dry wings are crazy good, but I gotta warn you. It opens up with a kick. It’ll wake you up, but an instant later you get nothing but fantastic peppery flavor. I mean, really good. After a few bites I was all about that heat and pepper and couldn’t get enough. But I admit, that first kick was … a kick!

If you’re a tad shy about heat I’d recommend going light on the Kosmos Q Seven Pepper Face Lift dry wing seasoning the first time. And I don’t recommend sticking your finger into the bag the first time you open it to get a big ole taste. I paid for that. But, the heat does go away pretty quick, fortunately for me.

Melinda’s Creamy Style Ghost Pepper Wings

There’s no denying it. Melinda’s Creamy Style Ghost pepper wing sauce is HOT. I do mean spicy, tingle-my-lips hot. But it’s a good burn. I’m not one of those guys that’s in a constant search for the latest, hottest sauce. I like a bit of a kick, and a lot of flavor. Well, this sauce has a lot of both. If you’re looking for a sauce that’ll wake you up and still tastes fantastic, grab a bottle. Use a little (like I did) or a lot (if you’re into heat!).

Melinda's Creamy Style Ghost Pepper Wings

Sure, It’s Spicy. But It’s Oh So Good, Too!

If you’re afraid of the heat, just do like I did and just toss a few wings with just a bit of the sauce for starters. Take a few bites and see where you are. After that initial kick I found myself liking the sauce more and more and more. So I added some more sauce. The combination of ghost, habanero and cayenne peppers makes for a wonderful sauce.

Hooter’s Hot Wings

This is what wings are all about. These Hooter’s hot wings (deep fried as they should be!) are as close to the real thing as you can get. Lightly crunchy, super tasty breading. Nicely spicy Buffalo wing sauce. No pain here, just great hot wings. This is not a copycat recipe. These wings are made with the same breading and sauce you can order online or pick up in the retail section at any Hooter’s. Get some, make these wings, and be happy!

Hooter's Hot Wings

Beyond Great

I fry up my Hooter’s hot wings 6 or so at a time in a Fry Daddy fryer. It makes perfect wings. Only downside is you can’t select the cook temperature, so I end up cooking my wings a bit longer since the oil is around 325 F. Still it makes for great wings in no time with a lot less oil than if I’d used my big restaurant-style fryer!

Wing-A-Lings Rub Dry Wings

Oh you delicious dry rubbed wings, you! Crunchy skin, juicy, tender meat… and flavor! Oh that delicious seasoning! Thanks to Wing-A-Lings rub, these dry wings are fantastically yummy. Smoked paprika, oregano, a bit of chili powder and garlic and just a bit of red pepper for a mild kick, this is the perfect dry seasoning for your wings. Just cook them up, and toss them in a little or a lot of rub, and enjoy!

Wing-A-Lings Rub Dry Wings

A Wonderfully Yummy Seasoning

The folks at Wing-A-Lings have lots of seasonings, and this chicken wing rub is definitely one of my favorites. Before I started this blog and before I became a total wing-aholic, I ran into the Wing-A-Ling food trailer at an event at Jungle Jim’s outside of Cincinnati. That did it for me. I’d never had anything ‘but’ Buffalo wings (which I love and crave) until then. The seasonings expanded my wing horizons, and helped start me on my wing journey! Wing-A-Lings rub dry wings are great reason why I keep enjoying wings.

Blues Hog Wild Wings

You take a look at the ingredients list for Blues Hog Wild wings sauce and you’d think that just about everything imaginable is in it. Hot sauce, Ranch, lemon juice, BBQ sauce, Cajun seasoning… the list goes on. And somehow, all of those flavors come together in what is one wildly different and very good wing sauce. Every bite I took I’d taste something different. I’d get the Cajun seasoning. Then I’d get the BBQ. And more. And more. It’s complex and delicious and one of my favorites.

Blues Hog Wild Wings

An Over-The-Top Great Sauce

Blues Hog Wild wings sauce made me think of southern-inspired flavors. The hot sauce isn’t too hot, but it’s there. The BBQ sauce is smoky, but not in-your-face. The vinegar’s not too strong. In the end nothing is really front-and-center, but there’s so many flavors that it’s kind of like an adventure with each bite you take.

This sauce comes in a big, heavy duty squeeze bottle that is great to keep around after you’ve used it up. I keep one full of oil to use on my grill.

June Moon Buffalo Wings

The June Moon Spice Company has gone and done it again. This time, they’ve made a fantastic Buffalo wing sauce. Like their other sauces, June Moon Buffalo wings sauce looks great right out of the bottle. They only make small batch sauces, with the best ingredients. This sauce is nice and creamy. It’s not vinegar-based, which is a welcome change from the traditional Buffalo sauce. And it’s easy on those of us that can’t handle a lot vinegar, though there certainly is vinegar in the sauce. It’s very tasty, a tad garlicky and lightly spicy, but certainly not overly so. I’d call it mild.

June Moon Buffalo Wings

A Wonderfully Creamy Buffalo Sauce

June Moon Buffalo wing sauce is also great on the side, as a dipping sauce for chicken nuggets or tenders. Or on a grilled chicken sandwich. It’s nice creamy consistency will keep it sticking to whatever you use it on, without being gloppy. And it’s not so spicy that you’ll have people reaching for their water bottles (or milk).

Air Fryer Hooter’s Hot Wings

Oh yes! Give me a plate (or two) or air fryer Hooter’s hot wings and I am one happy guy! Sure, the traditional method involves deep frying and that’s the way to do up the classic if you have the time, a deep fryer and some oil. If not, the air fryer makes for some mighty respectable wings that are just hot enough, just crunchy enough, and are oh-so-delicious! These wings are the way wings should be, and they’re crazy easy to make!

Air Fryer Hooter's Hot Wings

You Never Forget Your First Wings

Air fryer Hooter’s hot wings take me right back to the first time I visited a Hooter’s. I went to the original store in Clearwater, FL and ordered up a big ole plate of wings and proceeded to get at it! Man, did I ever fall in love with wings right there and then. I was an amateur then. I got sauce all over myself. I had to ask for more napkins. I probably ordered a soda instead of beer. Well I’ve learned since then. Now I’m a wing professional. I can eat an absolute ton of hot wings without even thinking about it. Am I proud of that? Heck yeah, you bet I am!

And so here I am, many years later, still enjoying Hooter’s great wings! Stop by one of the restaurants to purchase some breading and sauce (and heck, get some wings while you’re there). You can also order them online.

PS: Many of the stores are gone now. Perhaps all but the original. But that one’s worth the drive so go!

You can order everything online that you need to make these great wings at home.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Place wings into a resealable container. Add 1 tablespoon of the breading. Seal and shake to coat. Open the container and check for breading that isn't adhering to the wings. If there isn't any (i.e. it's all stuck to the wings!) you might want to add bit more breading, seal, and shake again. If there's a bit of breading in the container that isn't stuck to the wings, you're good to go as as much is stuck as is gonna stick!
  • Place the sealed wings into the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Lightly spray the basket of your air fryer with non-stick spray. Preheat per manufacturer's recommendation to 400 F.
  • Lightly spray all sides of the wings with non-stick spray.
  • Add the wings to the basket (be careful it's hot!). If you have trouble fitting them without overlapping, stand the drumettes along the sides of the basket.
  • Cook wings for 10 minutes.
  • Flip the wings and cook another 10 minutes.
  • Remove wings from fryer and place in a bowl. Toss with the sauce. Click here for our guide on how to sauce your wings.
  • Serve with dressing and carrots and celery.

Notes

Note: If your wing sauce is refrigerated, place a few tablespoons of the sauce into a microwavable bowl and microwave for 20 seconds to melt.
