Well it won’t be long it’s time for one more football game the daddy of them all.  The Super Bowl.  So, what are you serving your guest while their eyes are glued to the television.  Chicken, subs, pizza, chips, dip.  There are so many dishes you can serve just let your imagination go with it.

One of my favorites are the spicy buffalo wings.  They are so simple, it will probably take you about 30 minutes to prepare. 

Take about 2 lbs of buffalo wings and season with salt and pepper.  Since I’m always kicking  my wings up a notch I add some cayenne pepper and a little bit of garlic powder.

In a deep fryer, cook the wings on 350 degrees and make sure you cook them until they are nice and brown. Once the wings are brown, let them drain on a couple pieces of paper towel.  Now mind you, you could bread the wings and you could bake the wings in the oven but, there is something about frying the wings in the hot grease and then dipping them into the butter and hot sauce that probably will  remind you of your favorite takeout where you normally purchase your favorite wings.

In the mean time, mix 1/2 cup of franks hotsauce  to two tablespoons of butter.  In a large mixing bowl, add the wings and then top with the hot sauce mixture.  Keep moving the wings around in the bowl till all the wings are coated.  Those of you who are familiar with Frank’s Hot Sauce, you already know the recipe is on the bottle.  This is one of my favorite condiments.   Another way to fix your spicy wings is on the grill.

Now, when I made these wings it was all about experimenting with my sauce to accomplish the taste I was looking for.  I really suggest doing a lot to change up the taste and also, to get you acquainted with learning about different spices.  These are just your typical grilled wings but, the sauce it is always the sauce and that’s what makes the difference.

This recipe I just used a regular sauce but I added things like habanero peppers, mustard, brown sugar, chili powder just what ever gets the taste right for me.  So get to experimenting you will be surprised at what you might come up with.  The last thing I can suggest would be some type of chili and I really love doing the white chili because it is so different and you can make it in the slow cooker which will save time and you can be working on another dish.

And last but not least, desert.  You always need a desert but, try something really easy and not expensive like brownies, cookies or maybe even a cake.  What ever you decide to make just make sure your not in the kitchen but with your company and enjoying the game.  And remember,

KEEP IT SIMPLE
