McCormick Air Fryer Buffalo Dry Wings

Wow. Just wow. I was wandering around the grocery store when I hit the spice and seasonings aisle. There in a lil red box was some McCormick Air Fryer Buffalo wing seasoning mix. I thought, well, heck. That sounds good. Why not give it a shot? Well, by golly, I was super duper happy with these wings. Un-sauced, they are packed with garlic and traditional Buffalo flavors, with just a slight bit of a kick. And they’re perfectly crunchy! This is why I love air fryer wings. My air fryer never fails me!

They Smell As Great As They Taste

I couldn’t get over just how great these wings smelled as they cooked in my air fryer. The McCormick Buffalo Air Fryer Buffalo seasoning not only tastes great, it makes your mouth water in anticipation while the wings are getting done. But, don’t over-cook the wings. The seasoning will get a bit dark if you let the wings go too long.

½ pounds chicken wings flats and drumettes separated, tips saved to make stock

Place wings in a bowl. Sprinkle with the seasoning and toss to coat.

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.

Spicy Japanese Barbecue Sauce Wings

This post is for the spicy version of Bachan’s Japanese barbecue sauce. Also check out my post on their non-spicy Japanese barbecue sauce!

It’s happened again. These Bachan’s Spicy Japanese Barbecue sauce wings have gone and made me sad, just like when I first tried their regular barbecue sauce. Sad that I went so long before buying a bottle and squeezing it onto some wings, that is! My goodness me is this ever good stuff! I mean crazy good. Lightly sweet and lightly salty with just a little kick (nothing to be afraid of!), it’s what teriyaki sauce wishes it could be. I cannot stop eating wings covered in this sauce (or the non-spicy version too!).

Sauce ‘Em And Devour ‘Em

The sauce is a little on the thin side, just like its no-heat version. Normally that would be a minus on wings. You won’t want your sauce to end up at the bottom of your plate, you need it to stick to your wings. Well, this sauce has so much fantastic flavor that you don’t need it to be super thick. Not at all. If you want, do like I do and put a small bowl of extra sauce on the side for dipping your spicy Japanese barbecue sauce wings. You won’t regret it.

Plucker’s Spicy Mandarin Wings

Now this is different. Take a bite of Plucker’s Spicy Mandarin wing sauce and you’ll instantly taste orange and soy sauce. Not overwhelming flavors, but you won’t go hunting for them, that’s for sure. This is a nice change from the sweet chili or teriyaki sauce Asian-inspired wing sauces you usually find. Not that there’s anything wrong with those.

Decidedly Different. And Delicious.

I picked up eighteen different bottles of wing sauce from Plucker’s. It’s a wing restaurant based out of Austin, Texas. Every single sauce, like Plucker’s spicy mandarin wing sauce, has been fantastic. So many different exciting flavors in bottle after bottle. And it’s all quality stuff, too! I’d better get to making more wings!

Smoky Chipotle Wings

I’ve been seriously addicted to making dry wings, like these smoky chipotle wings. My wife and I recently spent a few days in lovely Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania while attending a conference. I made sure I had my ‘to-eat’ list down before leaving, because one thing you can be sure of finding in Pittsburgh: good food. At the top of my list was dry chicken wings. No, not dry like ‘ewww, this meat is dry’. Dry as in the wings aren’t tossed in sauce after being cooked. Instead they are dusted with seasoning. The end result is almost like roasted chicken, but with much more pronounced flavors.

A Little Smoke. A Little Heat.

When you first taste the rub for these smoky chipotle wings you might think they’ll come out super spicy. Maybe too spicy for grandma. Well, no, actually. The heat mellows a bit while the wings cook. You’re left with a slightly smoky, slightly sweet, and a bit of heat flavor that is absolutely crazy good. Good enough for grandma, though you might want to run the idea by her first.

Smoky chipotle wings would be absolutely perfect served any time, but they’d really make a great appetizer for the big game. They’re easy to make and packed with flavor.

I like to make my spice, rub and seasoning mixes in big batches and keep them in large bottles with easy-to-pour shaker lids.

G Hughes Sugar Free Mango Habanero Wings

This is my second bottle of sugar free wing sauce from G Hughes. The first, Thai chili, was absolutely amazing. Was it a fluke that such a great sauce was also sugar free? Nope. Definitely not. Because G Hughes Sugar Free Mango Habanero wing sauce is just as amazing! Lightly fruity with a decent amount of heat, I really love this sauce. It’s finger-licking good. Delicious.

Sweet, but not too Sweet

I wouldn’t call G Hughes Sugar Free Mango Habanero wing sauce overly sweet, but it’s sweet (despite no sugar!). And I wouldn’t call it overly spicy, but it’s spicy. It strikes a nice balance between the heat and the sweet. I could definitely see myself using this as a dipping sauce for chicken nuggets or as a sauce on grilled chicken or ribs.

Plucker’s Honey BBQ Wings

I bit my finger when I ate my lunchtime wings tossed with Plucker’s honey BBQ wing sauce. Yes, I was eating the wings so fast that my finger got in the way. I was blinded by wing love and must have thought, hey, that looks a bit like a drummette, let’s try that! And it was good! Ok, I’m sort of kidding, but man what a great sauce this is! It’s on the sweet side (the honey in the name gives it away). Not really any heat to speak of. But oh, oh, it’s soooo good!

Delicious Sweetness In Every Bite

Plucker’s honey BBQ wing sauce would be absolutely outstanding on just about anything. Just because it says ‘wing’ on the label doesn’t mean that’s all it’s good for. If you’re looking for a truly amazing sweet BBQ sauce, this is it.

Spicy Honey Wings

A little sweet. A little heat. Those are the keys to a great wing sauce. These spicy honey wings have the perfect combination of both. Even with my Fire-Eater rub and a healthy dose of hot sauce, they’re plenty sweet. Perfect for dipping in a bowl of cold Ranch or blue cheese dressing.

This Is What Sweet Heat Is All About

I find myself sitting here and just staring at the picture of the spicy honey wings. Man, they sure were pretty, and they sure were delicious. I could easily make another batch for lunch today. I think I will. All of the ingredients to make the rub and sauce are pantry staples, and I always keep plenty of fresh wings around because you never know when you might want a few wings.

Crystal Hot Sauce Buffalo Wings

Crystal Hot Sauce isn’t just good. It’s amazingly good. It’s not super spicy, not at all. But it’s oh so flavorful. It’s perfect on any food, but when you make a Buffalo wing sauce from it you’ve got something wonderful. These Crystal hot sauce Buffalo wings are definitely some of the best wings I’ve ever had. They are finger-licking good.

Flat-Out Deliciously Good Wings

When you make the sauce for these Crystal hot sauce Buffalo wings you have to be mindful of two things: don’t have the heat too high and don’t cook it too long. You want just the slightest simmer. Enough to melt the butter, warm things up, and dissolve the seasonings. If you have the heat too high, or cook the sauce too long, the sauce will separate. A little separation is normal, you can whisk the ingredients and they’ll come back together. But if you overheat or overcook, it won’t get that nice consistency no matter how much you whisk.

Sauce Much?

I like to serve my Buffalo wings sauced and with more of the sauce on the side, in dipping cups. I don’t over-sauce the wings themselves. I want great flavor, not a mess. But if I am craving more sauce, I have it right there, nearby, for dunking.

Is It Hot In Here?

You can adjust how hot these wings are by simply adjusting the ratio of butter to hot sauce. More butter and less hot sauce means, you guessed it, less heat. Less butter and more hot sauce? Yep, hotter wings. You can adjust them to be the way you want them. Or, if you’re feeding a crowd, make several batches. Some mild, some hot, and everyone will be more than happy!

Crystal also makes their own wing sauce. It’s delicious too!

Beef O Brady’s Garlic Parmesan Wings

We were on vacation in Georgia. I make a habit of checking out the wing sauce section of the local grocery stores when I go out of town. You never know what you might find. This time, I stopped at a Publix and wondered upon some Beef O Brady’s Garlic Parmesan wing sauce. Well, of course I bought some. And of course, as soon as we got back home I made some wings and tossed it with the sauce….. and…. Dang! What a great wing sauce! I mean crazy good! There’s no question it’s got garlic and Parmesan flavor. No question at all! It’s packed with flavor!

One Heck of a Great Sauce

I cannot get over just how much I enjoy Beef O Brady’s Garlic Parmesan wing sauce. It’s not just yummy, it’s the perfect consistency. It would make for a fantastic chicken or steak marinade. And even a great salad dressing. This stuff is gold.

Brownwood Farms Slatherin’ Wings

Oh, how I love Brownwood Farms Slatherin’ wing sauce. I’m not always a big mustard-sauce fan, some are a bit too mustardy for me. But not this sauce. This is spot-on great mustard flavor here. And all in a nice and creamy sauce with just a bit of spiciness. It’s a rich, deeply flavored sauce that makes for the perfect batch of wings.

The Perfect Mustardy Balance

I can’t wait to make another batch of wings and toss them with Brownwood Farms Slatherin’ wing sauce. And, I also cannot wait to slather this sauce on grilled chicken breasts, or better, a whole grilled spatchcocked chicken. I can also see this sauce on a future grilled or smoked rack of ribs. Along with great flavor, this sauce has the perfect consistency so I don’t have to worry about it not sticking to my next grilled dish!
