Jeremiah’s Favorite Wings
We found this pub in Colorado Springs while we were living there that has these amazing wings and is ‘family friendly’ so we like to go there every now and again and gorge on wings and fries.
But me being me, I had to give it a go at making these myself. The last time we were down there visiting, Jeremiah asked them for the recipe. They gave him the list of ingredients, not quantities but no big deal, I figured I could come up with something.
My problem (of course) is O’Malley’s uses margarine – gag me now! I never, ever use that stuff. I find using butter works great but the flavor is slightly different.
We agreed that they turned out pretty close and were REALLY good and super easy to make. They are good and spicy so I leave some ‘naked’ for the kids if you need to.
- about 5 pounds of chicken wings
- 1 bottle franks red hot cayenne pepper sauce
- 2 sticks butter
- 2 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- oil for deep frying (I use about 5-6 cups)
- Heat the oil to about 350º degrees in a large pot over medium high heat.
- While the oil is heating up make the sauce. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the two sticks of butter. Once they are melted add the cayenne pepper
- sauce, worcestershire sauce and honey, stir until smooth and combined. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and allow to simmer on low while the wings fry.
- Next, very carefully add the wings to the oil. Fry in batches so as not to crowd the pan. I did about ¾ of a pound at a time. Use tongs or a slotted spoon to remove and place them on some paper towels to drain. Give each batch about 7-8 minutes to fry, you want the skin to be nice and crispy and slightly brown.
- Once they are all fried put all the wings in a large serving dish and dump the sauce over the top. Use a large spoon to toss the wings in the sauce to make sure they are good and coated.
- Serve hot!
