Cajun Power Garlic Sauce Wings

I’ve been a huge fan of Cajun Power Garlic Sauce for years. I seriously don’t know why I waited so long to use it as both a chicken wing marinade and sauce. I loved these Cajun Power Garlic Sauce wings. Seasoned perfectly. A little garlicky. Nice and rich and super yummy.

More Sauce is More Better

I loved these Cajun Power Garlic Sauce wings. But guess what? Cajun Power also makes Cajun Power Spicy Garlic Sauce. Perfect for your friends (like me) that prefer their wings nice and hot! It’s not crazy spicy, but it packs a nice heat.

You can’t put enough Cajun Power Garlic Sauce on your cooked wings. I’ve tried and it’s not possible. It’s also great for dipping wings instead of your usual cooling dips like blue cheese or ranch dressing.

Buffalo Wild Wings Desert Heat Dry Wings

Buffalo Wild Wings Desert Heat wing seasoning makes for some of the best dry wings you’ve ever had. Sure, you can use it as a seasoning on wet wings too. I’m such a fan of dry wings that that’s how I prefer it. Time and time again. A little (ok, a good bit of) spiciness combines with a wonderful smokiness that makes these wings fantastic.

Buffalo Wild Wings Desert Heat Dry Wings

More is Better

I season my Buffalo Wild Wings Desert Heat Dry Wings before I cook them and after they’re done. If I’m deep frying the wings I’ll mix the seasoning in with the flour (or whatever coating I’m using) mixture first. I am pretty heavy-handed with the seasoning before and after the wings are cooked. I really like this stuff.

BBQ Ranch Wings

I have been enjoying the heck out of the flavors of wing sauces I picked up from Alliger’s House of Wings. Each and every one has been fantastic. Another cool thing about House of Wings is that on their website they have recipes for using their sauces and a few other simple ingredients to create all-new flavors. Like these BBQ Ranch wings. They’re crazy easy and crazy delicious. There’s nothing fancy going on here, just a great wing sauce. The kind you cannot stop eating.

BBQ Ranch Wings

The Perfect Taste Combination

These BBQ Ranch wings have just the right amount of Buffalo wing flavor, with a hint of barbecue sauce. The Ranch dressing adds a nice creaminess and coolness to the wings. This is a great way to serve wings at a party. No need for that bowl of Ranch for dipping your wings. They’ve already been dipped for you!

I store my leftover homemade sauces in squeeze bottles. If refrigerated, I set them out an hour before using so they come to room temperature. You don’t want to put cold sauce on hot wings!

Hoosier Daddy Sweet and Sassy BBQ Sauce Wings

There are three places I always go when I go to the grocery store. Of course, the wing sauce section. Then there’s the seasoning section (in case I find a new wing seasoning or something that might go good on dry wings). And the BBQ sauce section. I need BBQ sauce, but not just for my ribs or burgers or whatever. Nope, for my wings. Like these Hoosier Daddy Sweet and Sassy BBQ sauce wings. Just cook up a batch of wings and toss them in sauce. Or brush it on. Or serve it on the side for dipping. However you do it, BBQ sauce is great on wings!

Hoosier Daddy Sweet and Sassy BBQ Wings

Great BBQ Sauces Make Great Wings

This sauce is perfect. Hoosier Daddy Sweet and Sassy BBQ sauce wings have just the right amount of sweetness to them. And just a kiss of heat. Not too much of either, just the right amounts. There’s a bit of a smokiness, too. This sauce is a wonderful concoction, with everything from ketchup to mustard to peach. Yes, peach. Not to say it’s “peachy”, no. But oh, what a wonderful addition it is. Clever, I’d even say!

Rick’s Coffee Burn Dry Wings

I was a bit skeptical about a coffee and chicken. Sure, coffee often finds its way into my beef rubs or sauces, but it’s not something I thought would work so well with chicken wings. Rick’s coffee burn dry wings have so many great flavors it’s impossible to point to just one that makes them taste so great. You taste the coffee, the bouillon, garlic, onion… all of it. And there’s no lack of heat, either. Chipotle powder and jalapeno powder both pack a punch, but like everything else in the rub, they don’t drown out the other flavors.

Rick's Coffee Burn Dry Wings

Dry Wings Are Always A Win

I’m a huge fan of dry rubbed wings. Sauced wings are fantastic too. But you have to be careful that the sauce doesn’t become the only star of the show. You don’t want to hide the seasoning and the chicken. Rick’s coffee burn dry wings let me taste of all of the spices, and still I taste chicken. If you can’t taste the chicken, what’s the point?

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.

Perdue Hot ‘N Spicy Crispy Air Fryer Wings

Perdue Hot ‘N Spicy Crispy Air Fryer wings really made me happy. I’m not usually impressed with frozen, prepared wings. They’re usually scrawny and tasteless. Not these. Not even close. These wings are definitely hot and spicy. They have a delicious, crunchy batter. They cook up in no time in an air fryer (you can also prepare them in the oven). The aroma as they cook is dream-worthy. And perhaps best of all, they are not scrawny! Nope, these are meaty, tender, juicy, tasty, crunchy wings! Score!

I was wrong, and I’m sorry

I didn’t have high expectations for these wings and I was wrong about them. If you like battered wings and are in a hurry, you can’t beat them. Eat them straight out of the air fryer, or do as I did and dunk them in a little Buffalo wing sauce and Ranch dressing. Whatever works for you!

Perdue Hot 'N Spicy Crispy Air Fryer Wings

Cook time

The packaging for Perdue Hot ‘N Spicy Crispy Air Fryer Wings says to cook them at 400 F for 16 minutes. Maybe it’s just my air fryer (which is a 1700 watt model), but I found that 14 minutes is better. The wings may not seem crunchy after the shorter time, but they do get crunchier as they cool a little. I thought they came out great. Any longer and they start to get a little dark. Not burned, just dark.

Perdue makes roasted and a lemon pepper versions of these wings. Try them. You’ll love them too and they’re great for your fear-the-heat friends!

  • Remove wings and let cool for 2 minutes before serving with your desired sauces.

Notes

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce, 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.

How To Make Perfect Wings using a Vortex

I cook up a LOT of chicken wings. Sometimes I make them in the deep fryer, sometimes on the charcoal grill, sometimes on the gas grill, sometimes on the smoker, and often on the Char-Broil Big Easy. I love them any way, any time. One of my favorite ways to prepare wings is using a Vortex on my charcoal grill. This simple device gets your grill screamin’ hot, perfect for making those great crispy wings we all love. So grab a Vortex and read on! This is how to make perfect wings using a Vortex!

How To Make Perfect Wings using a Vortex

The Search…

I am always on a quest for the next best wing cooking idea. Recently, I discovered the best way for making crispy wings on the Char-Broil Big Easy, which came out fantastic. But, I was still looking for the best way to get crispy wings on my charcoal grill. That’s when I discovered the Vortex and Vortex chicken wings are amazing. The Vortex is an insert for your grill that let’s you concentrate the charcoal heat, making for an incredibly hot fire. As you can see below, the wings ring the Vortex, getting super hot and in just a while, crispy. And it couldn’t get any easier.

Best Thing Ever…

I couldn’t be more happy with my Vortex purchase. I purchased the small-sized model, which works fantastic on my old 18″ Weber kettle and 22″ Weber Performer grills. But, a larger model is available for the 22″-26″ cookers.

Since I originally posting this recipe, I’ve made wings on my Vortex hundreds of times. I’ve found that rotating the lid isn’t so critical (specially when cooking on a smaller grill such as the Jumbo Joe). For a little smoky flavor, throw a nice chunk of your favorite wood (I like hickory or cherry) over the Vortex about 5 minutes before you put your wings on.

  • Add the chicken as shown in the picture above. For the flats have the skin side up, and for the drumettes keep the meaty part away from the fire.

Kinder’s Spicy Teriyaki Sauce Wings

Well, I’m up to 4 days in a row now devouring some Kinder’s Spicy Teriyaki sauce wings for lunch. Yeah, you’re probably not supposed to eat wings 4 days in a row. I promise to eat a salad tomorrow (maybe). But I can’t stop myself. I absolutely love the sauce on these wings. I already knew Kinder’s makes a great teriyaki sauce, but now they went and added spicy red jalapeno and ginger and taken this sauce to a place I could only dream of. This is what teriyaki sauce should be.

I absolutely love this sauce.

Wing Magic Smoky Lime Dry Wings

Dry wings are popular for a reason. There are a lot of great wing seasonings on the market. You don’t have to use them to make dry wings, you can instead use them to season wings before you sauce them. Often, though, I find myself going the dry route so I can enjoy the seasoning without it ‘fighting’ a sauce. Wing Magic Smoky Lime seasoning dry wings are a great reason why I do wings this way. This seasoning has a lightly smoky flavor with a little kick. You bet it’s just the right amount of sweet. And oh, lime! Delicious citrusy lime comes along for a decidedly different taste. These are great, different, wings!

Stubb’s Black Pepper Anytime Sauce Wings

I really love ‘dry’ chicken wings. By dry I mean not pre-sauced. Not ewwwy dry. Good dry. And they don’t have to be complicated either. Like these black pepper wings. Salt. Pepper. Wings. Well, ok, I did have a dipping sauce, but it’s the fantastic out-of-the-bottle Stubb’s Sweet Black Pepper Anytime sauce, which is also great as a marinade.

Stubb's Black Pepper Wings

More Pepper Is More Better

You don’t want to be shy with the black pepper on these wings. You want that pepper kick, and even a bit of pepper heat, to come through in every bite. Stubb’s makes a variety of sauces and they’re all great on wings, even if they don’t say ‘wing sauce’ on the bottles. You’ll enjoy the intense pepperiness of these Stubb’s black pepper wings!

Also try Stubb’s Texas Sriracha sauce wings and their Wicked Habanero Pepper sauce wings.
