Sweet & Spicy Buffalo Chicken Wings

Notes from the Man Cave

Today is National Chicken Wing Day!  (I would never have known that if Renée hadn’t told me, but she says it is, so it must be true.)

Sweet & Spicy Buffalo Wings with Bleu Cheese Dip | The Good Hearted Woman

To celebrate this auspicious occasion, I thought I’d share Renée’s wing recipe with you – because they are amazing! She served them up for my last poker night and the guys had them stripped clean in minutes! They have just the right amount of spice for a party.  (I like to spice things up a little more, but that’s easy enough to do.)  The mild sweetness of the sauce really brings them together, too.  And that Blue Cheese Dip!  Wow! (My wife insists on spelling it “Bleu,” but with a name like Renée, who can blame her?)

You can make them with bone-in wings or chicken tenders; Renée doesn’t like to get her face messy when she eats, so she prefers the tenders.  Me, I’m all about good old-fashioned chicken wings.  Dig in!

    I would never think to use cola in a wings sauce. Crazy!

    Fun holiday!! 😉 I had never had chicken wings that I remember until about a year ago, so I can’t imagine making the sauce myself – but it’s a great idea!

    Looks great! I never would have thought to add cola to the marinade, or to put chicken wings on the grill (not sure why I had never thought of that before). I’ll have to give this a try!

    I love a good chicken wing! I’m always putting a little sugar in my sauce to help get the caramelizing. But, next time I will try it with cola instead!
