Love these; love the sauce! Yummy and just crunchy enough. Sometimes, when I want them quickly, I will buy a bottle of Buffalo Wild Wings' sauce and use that instead of the marinade - I'm cheating, I know, but they are yummy no matter what!!

    I served these at my husbands super-bowl party and they were a hit. I made 5lbs of chicken wings and they were the first thing to disapear. They were wonderful. I sent the recipe home with all of the guys.

    I also made these for the Superbowl. Very, very good. The wings soak up so much flavor as they marinate. Perfect wings!!!!!!!!!!
