MY DAYTONA HOT WINGS

Steps:

• 1. In a 1-gallon Ziploc baggie, put the ingredients for the wing mix in. Turn over several times to mix ingredients together. When you open the bag to put the wings in you will smell a smokey scent!
• 2. Spray a large baking sheet with the olive oil spray.
• 3. Cut wings apart, so you have two pieces. I do not use the very end of the wing as this does not have hardly any meat on it.
• 4. Put 4 or 5 wings into Ziploc baggie and turn over and over to coat.
• 5. Remove wings and shake excess off and place on pan. Repeat until all wings are coated.
• 6. Bake at 375* for 15 minutes.
• 7. Take out and turn all wings over. Return to oven for another 20 minutes.
• 8. While wings are finishing up start sauce.
• 9. Put all sauce ingredients into a sauce pan and start cooking over a medium low heat. When adding crushed red pepper flakes, it is up to you how hot you would like your wings. The more you add, the hotter they will be.
• 10. Cook until sauce thickens. Takes about 15 minutes.
• 11. When wings are finished baking, remove from oven and turn oven to BROIL.
• 12. Using a brush, brush sauce onto all sides of the wings.
• 13. Return to oven and broil about 5 minutes. This gives the wings a glazed look.
• 14. Serve with your choice of blue cheese, ranch dressing or just as they are!

Steps:

• 1. In a small bowl mix together the flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt.

• 3. Cover dish or bowl and refrigerate for 60 to 90 minutes. (I just make it and leave in the fridge until dinner.)

• 5. Place chicken wings on the wire rack.

• 7. Combine the butter, hot sauce, and garlic powder in a small saucepan over low heat.

BUFFALO WINGS SAUCE

Steps:

• I don't know whether she breaded the wings or dusted with flour or not. It is said she deep fried them. I dust the sectioned wings with my "All Purpose Breading or Coating" which see, and place on foil lined pizza platters and bake for 1 hour at 325 degrees. Occasionally deep fry them. They come out of the oven great.
• For the Sauce place all sauce ingredients in small fry pan or pot and warm through and simmer on very low heat for 10 minutes stir some. I use fry pan for larger heat surface.
• In large bowl add wings then pour sauce over and shake and combine well.
• Serve with Carrot and Celery Sticks and Bleu Cheese or Ranch Dressing or both. I use my homemade "Bleu Cheese Dressing", which see. Make it. Use it. And you won't buy pre-bottled again.
• The wings can be placed in a crock pot on warm to keep warm for gatherings. I normally provide a second crock pot of normal "Tame" wings as well. They're a treat. And as big a treat cold the following day.
• It is proclaimed that Frank and Terresa's Buffalo Wings are the "Best Wings In The World".
• For Super Hot wings I dust wings first with a small amount of my "Hot Chilis/Pepper Powder", which see. Then dust with flour and proceed. You could use Cayenne Powder. Make sure the Fire Hose is near.
• An Alternative "Hot" Sauce: 2/3 cup "Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce", 1/3 cup Ketchup, 1/3 cup Lemon Juice or "Real Lemon", 1/2 teaspoon Tabasco Sauce, 2 tablespoons Butter, 1/2 teaspoon of my "Hot Chilis/Pepper Powder" mix, which see, you could use Cayenne Powder. Stir well and warm. Frank's unadulterated Buffalo Wing Sauce is one of my favorites by itself.
• If you are a Buffalo Wing aficionado give these a try. That's a Challenge.
