I love hot wings…ever since I got the notion of doing my own I have been experimenting with all types….This one has multiple levels of heat that you can add depending on hot you want hot….
25 Chicken Wings (Either pre-fried at places like WingStop or deep fried at home)
1 – Bottle Frank’s Red Hot Sauce (this is the base)
1/2 Stick of Butter (Use real butter, it stiffens up the sauce)
1/4 Tbsp Garlic Powder
1/4 Tbsp Salt
1/4 Tbsp Course Black Pepper
1/4 Tbsp Fine White Pepper
1 Tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
Add all ingredients together in a large pot, bring to a slow boil and stir.
The various levels of heat depend on the amount and type of chili peppers you use.
Mild – Leave as is.
Hot – Added to ingredients:
1 Tbsp Tabasco Sauce
1/4 Tbsp Crushed Red Chile Peppers
Hotter – Added to above ingredients:
1/4 Tbsp Ground Serrano Peppers
1/4 Tbsp Garlic Powder
1/4 Tbsp De Arbol Powder
1/4 Tbsp Cayenne Powder
Even Hotter – Added to above ingredients:
1/4 Tbsp Ground Piquin Chili
1/4 Tbsp Ground Birds Eye
1/4 Tbsp Ground Tepin
1/2 Stick Butter
Hotter Still – Added to above ingredients:
1/4 Tbsp Fresh Ground Orange Habanero
Hottest: ( I have yet to get to eat more than one or two from this recipe)
1/4 Tbsp Fresh Ground Red Savina Habanero
Once you have all the heat you want added…Place hot, fresh wings in the pot with the sauce and let come to a boil. If find that you do not have enough liquid add more Franks Red Hot.
You can after you have boiled them put them on a cookie sheet and bake them for 20 minutes at 350 degrees (you may want to clear the house for this)
I boil the wings in the sauce because it allows the juices and the heat to get into the very flesh of the wing rather than just a coating on the outside.
Serve with Ranch or Blue Cheese, and Celery Stalks.
If you find the heat really hot be sure to drink milk not water.
Good luck….
