Anytime you are throwing a party that is centered around sports, chicken wings are always a must.
Of course, there are several other appetizers you could serve during sporting events, but chicken wings are always a staple. As I’ve said in other posts, like my loaded up nachos, I’m obsessed with March Madness and everything that comes with it. When I was in college I would do “March Mustache Madness,” and my friends and we would shave the most hideous mustache we could and keep it for the entire month.
When I was making these wings I wanted to do something a little different from the typical buffalo or ever popular Sriracha and honey so I came up with these ones. I made Ranch, Cheddar and Scallion, Lemon Pepper and Dr. Pepper. Yes, they’re a little out there but wow are they so good. If you’re asking, I’d have to say that the cheddar and green onion are my favorite. SOOO good!
Be sure to try out these awesome flavored wings!
