Superbowl Eats Part 2

LOL I'm such a tease.

It's pretty similar to the recipe posted by BD, but it's got my tweaks. This amount of sauce is suited for 2 pounds of wings.

- Preheat oven to 400. Line cookie sheet with foil, hit it with some Pam spray. Spread fresh (never-been-frozen) non-separated wings on cookie sheet, all with skin side up. Put wings in oven for 30 minutes.

- Melt 1/2 a stick of butter in a sauce pan over low heat. Stir in four cloves of garlic, either finely chopped or pressed. This creates garlic-butter for basting.

- After 30 mins of baking, take wings out and brush with garlic butter. If you like your wings damn spicy, sprinkle on some cayenne pepper. Back in the oven for another 10 mins.

- Take 'em out, flip em, baste em again with the garlic butter. Back in the oven for another 10 mins.

- Make the sauce: melt half a cup of butter in a sauce pan. Mix with half cup of Frank's Red Hot sauce. Add 1/4 cup of Frank's buffalo wing sauce. Add 1/8 cup of Tabasco's Chipotle sauce. Mix altogether.

- Take em out, baste em again with the garlic butter, back in for the last 10 minutes.

So all told that's 1 hour of cook time (30 minutes, baste, 10 minutes, baste and flip, 10 minutes, baste, 10 minutes, done).

Bathe 'em in the sauce and enjoy. The garlic butter makes em crisp up on the outside and gives a great garlic base flavor. The chipotle pepper sauce adds a smoky aspect to it, just enough to notice but not dominate the flavor of the sauce.

If you hate chipotle flavoring just leave that part out, the recipe works fine without it. But don't leave out the garlic butter basting, that's the secret.
