Thank you, Keegan, for this recipe. Make sure to serve this with a side bleu cheese dressing or my delicious homemade ranch for dipping.

Ingredients

  • Enough chicken wings depending on how many are eating
  • 3 Tablespoons butter pastured butter is best
  • 1/3 cup Franks Red Hot I checked the ingredient label: Aged Cayenne Red Peppers, Vinegar, Water, Salt and Garlic Powder – looks great!
  • 1/3 cup ranch dressing I make my own ranch dressing to avoid the soybean oil in the brands at the store.
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

Instructions

  • “To make the sauce, mix everything together except the wings.  Bake the wings at 425* in a deep baking pan to catch the liquid as the chicken cooks -- it'll take about an hour -- enough to get the wings to have a crispy outside without burning.  You could also grill the wings, but it’s just easier to bake them. As soon as I take the wings out of the oven I throw them in the bowl of the sauce, cover with a tight lid, and shake ‘em around.  Obviously if they are too spicy or not spicy enough, all you have to do is add more butter or use less sauce.  P.S. If you want to make another good BBQ wing variation, replace the ranch with honey, and hot sauce with BBQ sauce.
