Copycat Buffalo Wild Wings Mango Habanero Sauce

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

Don’t fear the habanero. Don’t worry about the heat. Well, ok, maybe a little. But it’s really tamed by the fantastic mango sauce. This copycat Buffalo Wild Wings Mango Habanero sauce might well be the perfect combination of sweet and heat. This is what Buffalo wing sauce wants to be when it grows up. It is nothing but awesome.

Copycat Buffalo Wild Wings Mango Habanero Sauce

I used a can of mango nectar when I made this copycat Buffalo Wild Wings mango habanero sauce. I found it in the Hispanic foods section of my grocery store. If you can’t find it, you might find it in the juice section. In a pinch, you can substitute mango that has been diced and pureed until very smooth. In that case you’ll probably need to strain the sauce before using.

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Also try my copycats of BW3s spicy garlic and Parmesan garlic wings.

I absolutely love chicken wings, cooked any way, with any sauce (or without). I love them so much that I created a free eCookbook that is full of my favorite wing recipes.

House of Wings Southern Wing Sauce

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

Alliger’s House of Wings sauces are incredible. They set the bar high. So high that I’m spoiled by every sauce I’ve had. Like this House of Wings Southern wing sauce. It’s a different flavor than your traditional ‘normal’ wing sauces. It’s got a bit of spiciness to it, but not too much. The spices are unique and quite honestly I had a hard time figuring out what they were. But I do know it’s a fantastic sauce and it would also make a fantastic marinade for chicken.

House of Wings Southern Wing Sauce

The cool thing about House of Wings sauces (besides the fact that they are delicious) is that you can combine them and make new flavors. For delicious Mexican-inspired wings, combine one part southern sauce and one part nuclear sauce.

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Also try the Singapore wing sauce.

BBQ Ranch Wings

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

I have been enjoying the heck out of the flavors of wing sauces I picked up from the House of Wings. Each and every one has been fantastic. Another cool thing about House of Wings is that on their website they have recipes for using their sauces and a few other simple ingredients to create all-new flavors. Like these BBQ Ranch wings. They’re crazy easy and crazy delicious. There’s nothing fancy going on here, just a great wing sauce. The kind you cannot stop eating.

BBQ Ranch Wings

These BBQ Ranch wings have just the right amount of Buffalo wing flavor, with a hint of BBQ sauce. The Ranch dressing adds a nice creaminess and coolness to the wings. This is a great way to serve wings at a party. No need for that bowl of Ranch for dipping your wings. They’ve already been dipped for you!

I store my leftover homemade sauces in squeeze bottles. If refrigerated, I set them out an hour before using so they come to room temperature. You don’t want to put cold sauce on hot wings!

Also try my slow cooker Buffalo Ranch wings.

Great Value Parmesan Garlic Wing Sauce

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

I often make my own chicken wing sauces. And then sometimes I don’t. I recently made it a goal of mine to try all of the wing sauces from the big grocery stores in our area: WalMart, Meijer, and Kroger. And far, I’ve been super impressed with the store sauces, like this Great Value Parmesan Garlic wing sauce. It’s thick enough to stick to the wings (it’s very thick, actually!) and it has great Parmesan and garlic flavor.

Great Value Parmesan Garlic Wing Sauce

Great Value Parmesan garlic wing sauce isn’t just great on wings. I like to roast or grill chicken breasts, chop or slice them, and toss with a bit of this sauce. It makes for the perfect creamy chicken over a salad.

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Great Value Mild Wing Sauce

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

If you’ve been looking for a great, inexpensive store-bought Buffalo wing sauce that isn’t too spicy, the mild wing sauce from Great Value (WalMart) is definitely the sauce for you. And me. Because I absolutely loved it. I decided to take a little break from hot wing sauces and this mild sauce definitely still satisfied my Buffalo wing craving without burning my mouth. Great Value mild wing sauce is the perfect sauce for feeding a crowd without having to worry about someone saying it’s too hot.

Great Value Mild Wing Sauce

It’s barely spicy, but very flavorful. Not overly vinegary. And the perfect consistency. I was really, really happy with it. This sauce is proof that you don’t have to spend a lot of money on a store sauce to get a good product.
WalMart’s Great Value brand has a whole lot of other wing sauce flavors. I can’t wait to try them. If they are anything like this mild wing sauce I’m in for a treat!

I absolutely love chicken wings, cooked any way, with any sauce (or without). I love them so much that I created a free eCookbook that is full of my favorite wing recipes.

Backyard BBQ Wings

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

These Backyard BBQ wings bring back memories. Memories of years ago, as a kid, enjoying those classic neighborhood grill-outs. The dad’s huddled around charcoal grills, the mom’s chatting away in a circle of lawn chairs. You’d find mostly grilled chicken and burgers. The chicken would be heavily brushed in BBQ sauce. Like these wings. Same great flavors as back then, but on delicious wings instead.

Backyard BBQ Wings


There’s nothing I would change about Backyard BBQ wings. They’re easy to make. That’s the point. Barbecues are about spending time with neighbors and friends, and not spending hours in the kitchen making a wing sauce! The wings come out juicy, tender and delicious. And they remind me of that grilled chicken from long ago.

I store my leftover homemade sauces in squeeze bottles. If refrigerated, I set them out an hour before using so they come to room temperature. You don’t want to put cold sauce on hot wings!

Feel free to substitute my copycat Dreamland BBQ sauce for the Bull’s Eye sauce!

I absolutely love chicken wings, cooked any way, with any sauce (or without). I love them so much that I created a free eCookbook that is full of my favorite wing recipes.

Also try my Texas Sriracha wings.

Legend Larry’s Medium Buffalo Wings

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

I have been more than pleased with the wing sauces from Legend Larry’s. I’ve never been to the actual restaurants, but if their bottled sauces are any indication of how good the food is, I’m going. And soon. The Legend Larry’s medium Buffalo wings sauce is the perfect middle-of-the-road spicy wing sauce. It’s exactly the sauce you want for your “I’m scared of the heat” guests, friends and family. Yet it still has that great Buffalo flavor and the perfect consistency for sticking to your wings without leaving you with a lake of sauce in the bottom of your plate. This is a fantastic sauce. Just like everything else from Legend Larry’s.

Legend Larrys Medium Buffalo Wings

Legend Larry’s medium Buffalo wings sauce is fantastic on wings, and it’s also great injected into wings! It’d also be great on roasted chicken in Buffalo chicken dip. I’m all about the wings, though, and this sauce really hit all the right notes on a batch of wings I cooked up for lunch.

I’m also a big fan of the original, Anchor Bar’s wings.

I absolutely love chicken wings, cooked any way, with any sauce (or without). I love them so much that I created a free eCookbook that is full of my favorite wing recipes.

I recently made it a goal of mine to try all of the wing sauces from the big grocery stores in our area: WalMart, Meijer, and Kroger. And so far, I’ve been super impressed with the store sauces, like this Kroger Parmesan Garlic wing sauce. It has the right consistency (very important! No one wants a lake of wing sauce at the bottom of their plate! It needs to stick to the wings!). It has great Parmesan and garlic flavor, both balanced perfectly.

Kroger Parmesan Garlic Wing Sauce

My only (slight) complaint about Kroger Parmesan Garlic wing sauce is that it comes in a plastic bottle. I know, that’s kind of picky, but I really believe that glass bottles do wing (any!) sauce more justice. I still love this sauce and would definitely buy it again!

There’s nothing wrong with using bottled wing sauce. But if you prefer to make your own, try my garlic Parmesan recipe!

Also try Kroger’s great medium Buffalo wing sauce.

Chik’N-Lik’N Chicken Wings

Just because it doesn’t say ‘wing sauce’ on the label doesn’t mean it isn’t going to be good on wings. And actually, Chik’N-Lik’N chicken wings aren’t just good. They’re flat-out delicious. I devoured these wings like I hadn’t eaten in weeks. A little savory, with a light mustardy tang and just a bit of spiciness, I can see why people love this sauce on more than chicken.

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

ChikN-LikN Chicken Wings

I didn’t use up the entire bottle of sauce on my Chik’N-Lik’N chicken wings, although I certainly could’ve made a few more batches of wings and loved every one of them. No, I saved some for roasted chicken and even burgers. The sauce was delicious on both. This is one great sauce to keep on hand, even substituting it for ketchup for fries! I also loved it on chicken roasted on my Char-Broil Big Easy.

Also try my Cajun Power wings. They are further proof that the bottle doesn’t have to say ‘wing sauce’ to also be great on wings!

Moore’s Asian Teriyaki Wings

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

Whoa back up the truck to teriyaki yumminess! We both loved the heck out Moore’s Asian Teriyaki wing sauce. Though the bottle says you can use the sauce on anything from vegetables to stir-fry to whatever, the sauce was amazing on wings. Not overly sweet as teriyaki sauce can sometimes be. Not overloaded with soy sauce or ginger. Just flat-out perfect teriyaki flavors.

Moores Asian Teriyaki Wings

I made sure to not overly sauce my wings. Some places you buy wings at like to bury their wings in sauce, usually to hide skimpy thin wings. Not me. I use the big wings and I want to taste the wings too, not just the sauce. But, Moore’s Asian Teriyaki wings sauce sure is yummy!

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Also try Moore’s Creamy Ranch or Blue Cheese wings.
