Tips
What’s the best buffalo sauce for this?
Bayou can use any kind of hot sauce, but it’s important to make sure that you add a little bit of honey to this, and the butter as well. This is because the butter ends up thickening this, making it super tasty and great to have if you like the taste of that.
What’s the best way to make these wings?
The best thing you should do with your wings is make sure that they’re crispy. Wings that are too moist usually aren’t as good, and the best way to achieve crispy 2ings is to put it in a baking sheet that’s rimmed on the wire rack in the oven. This helps with circulating this under the wing area, improving the cooking and making it more even.
Is using an air fryer okay?
Of course! Cooking with an air fryer is actually encouraged, and it’s become a more popular way to cook wings simply because it makes them taste good, and also is very simple for you to do too, making a really good wings recipe as well.
Can I make these and put them in the fridge?
Yep you can. This is good for up to three days with no sauce, and you can make the wings beforehand, and then the sauce the day of. When you’re ready to cook this, place them directly on a sheet, and put it in the oven at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes, and then broil it with the sauce afterwards.
The beauty o this recipe is it’s made to feed many people, so you can make a bunch.
