This is supposed to be a copycat of the sauce served on Hooter's Hotwings. I've never been in a Hooter's (and won't ever be)so I don't know how authentic the taste is, but these are quite tasty on hot wings, deep fried plain or breaded either one works nicely with this sauce.

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups butter, melted
1/2 cup Tabasco sauce, plus
2 tablespoons Tabasco sauce
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon paprika
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
3/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons chili sauce

Directions

1
Simply mix all the ingredients together very well.
2
Dunk, dip or soak your cooked wings in this sauce.
3
For a change of pace, I will occasionally re-fry the wings after they've been sitting in the sauce, and then dunk them again once they've spent just a few seconds in the deep fryer, crisping up.
4
Serve with ranch or bleu cheese dressing, or whatever you prefer.

I've never had Hooters wings so can't really compare this to theirs but I like it nonetheless. I used it in a different way. I had Costcos Buffalo style meatballs and was looking for a sauce to drizzle over them. I found this recipe and it did the trick. I loved the Balsamic Vinegar in it. I'm a huge fan of the stuff. It was so easy to make. I made half the recipe. Try this you'll like it.

Wowowow! this sauce is fantastic. I made it at the weekend, using your suggestion of re-frying the wings after I dunked them in the sauce. I served them with bleu cheese dressing and everyone gobbled them up! Thanks so much for a real winner!

As a regular Hooters customer who, in his lifetime, has consumed more than his share of their fine wings, I feel more than qualified to be able to compare this recipe to the taste of the actual Hooters sauce. While it comes close, it is not an exact copy. I will say, however, that is is very tasty and I will use it often for my tailgate and Sunday afternoon football parties. Bottom line: this sauce rocks!
