I know it took a little to respond, but you want a rub for your hot wings and not a sauce?

Thought the same thing. You don't use a rub.

Hot wing sauce.

Don't have my recipe if front of me but off the top of my head.

Louisiana hot sauce
Butter
Vinegar
Honey
Cayenne

I add some other stuff such as garlic powder and onion powder. depends on what I feel like at the time.

This is very similar to what I do but Ive never used butter and I try not to use too much vinegar. Maybe Ill give that a try next time

Do you bake the wings or fry them?

Do you use a breading for the wings?

Soak em in Buttermilk that has hot sauce in with the buttermilk for an hour.

Season the dredge with cayenne pepper or any other hot dried pepper you like and spices you like.

deep fry em then consume

always check the temperature on the oil and don't put too many wings in the oil at one time it will lower the temperature.

Butter is a must. It helps the sauce stick to the wing. Not too much vinegar but that gives it a bite too.

Basically 4 parts Louisiana sauce, 2 parts butter, 2 parts honey and 1 part vinegar as the basis for the sauce. Add additional flavors and heat (a very small part cayenne usually for me) as desired.

Barely simmer over a low heat. You do not want to boil it.

Then I fry the wings, dip in sauce and stick in oven at 175 while I fry more wings. When all the wings are fried and dipped take the wings out of the oven and redip.

Turn on the game and pop a beer. It's ready.

edit: I'm going to try baking this year. I cut out all fried foods in my diet. Probably will try to dip and bake and then redip.

My thought too. But who knows. There's a chain here called sticky fingers that makes smoked wings and those things are fuckingfantastilicous.

Don't think they use a rub though. Just slow and low.
