Garlic Parmesan Ranch Wings

I got thru a lot of paper towels. A lot. Because I eat a lot of messy wings. And messy is good. These garlic Parmesan Ranch wings had me reaching for extra paper towels. Lots and lots of butter. Lots of garlic. And of course, lots of cheese. With a wonderful Ranch flavor to boot. Yeah, these are finger-licking good. But you’ll still need paper towels!

Garlic Parmesan Ranch Wings

Make Extra Sauce

I made plenty of extra sauce for these garlic Parmesan Ranch wings. It’s nice to have a little extra on the side, in a little cup, for dipping my wings for extra happiness. But also, any leftover sauce is great for other things. And by other things I mean garlic bread. Man, is the sauce ever great for soppin’ with a big ole slice of garlic bread! So make extra and thank me later!

You don’t really have to deep-fry your wings. Just make the sauce and use it on wings cooked however you prefer.

Burman’s Parmesan Garlic Wings

This is not wimpy, no-flavor wing sauce time. This is ‘bring the lemon flavor time’. And ‘bring the garlic’ and ‘bring the parmesan’ time. Big time. These herby, delicious, flavor-packed Burman’s Parmesan Garlic wings are not wimpy in any way. A nice thick sauce that loves to stick to your wings, you’re in for nothing but greatness. And a slight bit of heat, too. Not enough to be scary though.

I found this sauce in Aldi. So you know it’s quality stuff. And at the right price!

Burman's Parmesan Garlic Wings

Don’t Stop At Wings

Sure, these Burman’s Parmesan Garlic wings are great. You bet they are. On the off-chance that you have extra sauce laying around, don’t be afraid to try it on other things. Toss some grilled shrimp in it. A lot of shrimp. Could you put it on a salad? You bet. It is a bit thick, so you might want to go light on it. Mix it in with some cooked pasta. Whatever you add it to, it will bring the flavor and then some!

Traeger Grills Texas Apricot BBQ Sauce Wings

I’m convinced that more wing restaurants should serve BBQ-sauced wings. And not just traditional ones like ‘smoky’ or ‘spicy’ or ‘Texas’ or ‘sweet’. Put something like Traeger Grills Texas Apricot BBQ sauce wings on the menu. We all want great flavor. Tremendous flavor. And this is it. Slightly fruity. A little bit of heat. Not much. And a hint of smoke. This is a great BBQ sauce. It’s even better on wings!

Traeger Grills Texas Apricot BBQ Sauce Wings

Thinner Can Be A Winner

This sauce is a bit thin. That worried me at first. But when I made my batch of Traeger Grills Texas Apricot BBQ sauce wings they sauced up just fine. That first bite was great. A ‘mmmmmm’ bite. Good stuff, I thought. Not too sweet. Perfect.

This sauce would be great on a lot of things other than wings. But I am sure it’ll shine on some pork. That’s where I’m headed with it next. A little grilled pork tenderloin brushed with this sauce would be amazing. With a side of wings, of course!

Shore Lunch Cajun Style Wings

These Shore Lunch Cajun style wings are right up my alley. The breading is out-of-this-world fantastic. Such a wonderful crunch and seasoned to absolute perfection. With a nice essence of Cajun flavor and spiciness. Not overpowering, but there. These wings are truly epic. I could eat these wings all day long! As much as I love air fried wings, or grilled wings, and even baked wings, deep-fried wings are my weakness! You can’t get any easier than these. Or better.

Shore Lunch Cajun Style Wings

Eat ‘Em Naked

These Shore Lunch Cajun Style wings don’t require a dipping sauce. They’re great just as they are! But, if you are up for a dip or two, I recommend having a little cup of Buffalo wing sauce. You gotta be careful, though. You don’t want to hide the wonderful flavor of these wings. The breading is the star of this show. Don’t go ruining it by having a sauce fight with all of that wonderful Cajun flavor!

Old Angry Liberal Hot Sauce Wings

As we often do when traveling down (or up) I-75, we stopped at the Kentucky Artisan Center outside of Berea. I figure most people head to the wonderful art at the center. Me, I head to the Kentucky-made sauce section. There are BBQ sauces. Jams. And yes, hot sauces. I grabbed a bottle of sauce that looked really, really good and when I got home, made some Old Angry Liberal hot sauce wings. There’s nothing fancy going on here. I didn’t want a bunch of ingredients fighting what is a great-tasting hot sauce. Simple is often best.

Old Angry Liberal Hot Sauce Wings

Just Floatin’ Around

Old Angry Liberal hot sauce ain’t messing around. You can see the goodness in the bottle. Peppers. Vine-ripened. Chunks of them. Garlic. Vinegar. You think you need more? Nope. You don’t. Not for these wings. Oops, I forgot that I added a little butter. Ok, you think you need more than these wonderful hot sauce and a little butter? Nope. You don’t.

The sauce has a nice heat level. It’s not particularly spicy. It has tremendous flavor. A lot of flavor. Good flavor. I love it when a hot sauce isn’t all about burning the roof of my mouth off. I want to taste the ingredients in every bite. This is a well-crafted sauce. Great on wings, and certainly great on other foods too!

Andy’s Hot N Spicy Chicken Breading Wings

Easy. Flavorful. Crunchy. And spicy. That’s why we’re here today. That’s why we’re making Andy’s Hot N Spicy Chicken Breading wings. This isn’t complicated. There aren’t 20 steps to follow. We want simple but we want good, tasty results. I keep this fry mix on hand for the times I just want great, uncomplicated, deep-fried wings that have a nice little kick to them.

Andy's Hot N Spicy Chicken Breading Wings

Dry. Or Wet. Or Both

I like to eat my Andy’s Hot N Spicy Chicken Breading wings just as they are, right out of the fryer. If I want, I’ll put a little Buffalo wing sauce on the side to dip my wings into as I go. Might be mild, might be spicy, it just depends on the mood I’m in that day. The only thing I don’t do is toss my wings in sauce. Tossing knocks all of that wonderful breading off the wings. That defeats the purpose of breading them to start with! So I dip my wings instead.

A bit too spicy for your tastes? Try some Andy’s mild breading instead.

Buffalo Wild Wings Sweet and Sour Wings

I have had my share of store-bought (and restaurant-bought) 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 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 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 wings are a real winner. I was sorry to see the last drop of sauce disappear.

Andy's Mild Chicken Breading Wings

Straight Up. Or With A Twist.

I like to eat my Andy’s Mild Chicken Breading wings ‘dry’…. and I like them ‘wet’. Dry wings, served without any sauce, let me enjoy that great seasoning. It’s really good stuff, and worthy of enjoying on its own. But there’s also nothing wrong with having them dipped in sauce (‘wet’), either. Not tossed in sauce, though. I’m not a fan of tossing deep-fried battered wings in sauce for two reasons. One, all that tossing knocks off that crunchy delicious coating! And two, the wet sauce makes the coating soggy! So I usually dip my wings instead.

For other ways to sauce your wings, check out my huge guide to saucing wings. Trust me, you’ll find a way that’s your favorite!

Andy’s also makes a fantastic spicy breading that really kicks up your wings!

Traeger Grills Texas Spicy BBQ Sauce Wings

It’s BBQ wing time! One of my favorite things to have is wings coated in BBQ sauce. I’m not hung up on only saucing them with bottles that say ‘wing sauce’ on the front. BBQ sauces make for perfect wings! Like these Traeger Grills Texas Spicy BBQ sauce wings. This is one great sauce. And it’s really great on wings. It has a hint of smoke. It’s a little sweet but has a nice vinegar tang. The heat level isn’t too high, but you’ll notice it.

Stick-To-Your Wings Good Stuff

This sauce isn’t messing around. It sticks to your wings. That’s good news. No one wants a ‘sauce pool’ on the bottom of their plate. Make some wings and sauce them up with some Traeger Grills Texas Spicy BBQ sauce and you’ll be happy. Just squirt it on and toss them (gently) until nice and coated.

Heck yeah this sauce is great on burgers, roasted chicken, ribs too! And pulled pork! Don’t tell anyone, but I also like to dip potato chips into it! Yummy!

Taco Sauce Wings

I wasn’t really bored with my usual hot sauce-based wing sauces. Heck, I have tons of different hot sauces I can use to make a quick good wing sauce. Nope, I just happened to open the fridge, saw a bottle of taco sauce, and made the quick decision that I needed it on some wings. And that’s what I did. I made taco sauce wings. Good wings made better with a little spiciness and great flavor. Nothing fancy. But tasty.

Which Way To Go?

Your taco sauce wings can take a few different directions. Mild. Medium. Hot. You can make the mild milder. Or the hot hotter. It’s up to you. Just vary the amount and style of taco sauce, and the amount of butter. Easy. Uncomplicated.

Want More?

If you want, you can add a little more ‘stuff’ to your taco sauce-based wing sauce. A pinch of cayenne stirred in is a good place to start. Some chile powder doesn’t hurt either. Heck, sneak in some Fajita seasoning. Just don’t go crazy with it. Add it, but don’t make it overwhelming.
