Sweet Heat Barbecue Chicken Wings

Submitted by gailanng

"A Home Made Simple recipe. The original recipe uses buffalo sauce, but can be tailored towards the Southwestern using adobo sauce or Asian using Sriracha. The original recipe did not call for seasoning the wingettes with salt, but I'd lightly salt them pre-dipping into the sauce before baking."
