Perfect Game Day Hot Wings

Perfect Game Day Hot Wings

It’s football season again at last!!! I just love getting together with friends to watch the game and have a few drinks. But what football gathering is complete without wings?

These wings are a legend in my family, as well with some of my closest friends, but they are not for the faint at heart. We like our wings to be hot, not just have a little kick. I am warning you though… these hot wings are addicting.  

Ingredients:

·        3lbs Bone-in chicken wings and drums

·        1 ½ cups Italian Dressing

·        1 (32 fl oz) Bottle Louisiana Hot Sauce, divided

·        ½ (2 fl oz) Bottle Tabasco Original

Directions:

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the ¾ bottle of Louisiana hot sauce and the Tabasco. Set aside.

In a large container with a lid, lightly coat wings with the Italian dressing. This coating allows the hot sauce to better adhere to the wings. Next, pour the hot sauce mixture over the wings and seal with the lid. Shake the container well to ensure and even coating. Allow the wings to marinate for at least two hours. *** For best results (and spicier wings), I recommend marinating in the refrigerator overnight. ***

Once wings have been marinated for the desired amount of time, preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Remove wings from marinade and place in a greased 9x13” glass baking dish. Bake for 30 minutes then turn wings over. Brush with remaining Louisiana hot sauce and continue baking for another 30-40 minutes.
