Southern Kitchen Happenings: Delish! Texas Style Barbecue Hot Wings

These Texas Style Barbecue Hot Wings are as spicy hot, sweet, sticky, and lip smacking good as the name says they are. I prefer to bake my chicken wings in the oven until golden brown and crispy instead of frying them, especially while the Super Bowl Game is on, so I am free to get the rest of the appetizers ready. After they have baked, I toss them with a mixture of hot sauce and barbecue sauce. Not only do they call for few ingredients, they are fast and easy to make. They are the perfect bite. In the beginning, you taste the tangy sweet and end up with that wonderful hot spicy flavor in the back of you mouth. The next time you are making some hot wings, think about making, Texas Style Barbecue Hot Wings, you will not be disappointed!

Texas Style Barbecue Hot Wings

1 1/2-2 lbs. chicken wings
1 12 oz. bottle Texas Pete Hot Sauce
1-1 1/2 cups Mesquite flavor barbecue sauce

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, mix 1/2 cup hot sauce and barbecue sauce together; set aside. Place the chicken wings on absorbent paper to dry. Spread wings in single layer on sheet pan. Sprinkle hot sauce slightly on chicken wings being sure not to soak them. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Add chicken wings to the sauce and toss, coating each wing well with the sauce mixture. Serve hot.

Note: This recipe can be adjusted to how hot and how sweet you like your hot wings by adjusting how much hot sauce and barbecue sauce you add.
