Honey Habanero Buffalo Wings

I saw this recipe on ATBBQ.com a while ago and finally got around to giving it a try using my indoor barbeque techniques. I also cut a few corners and used Frank’s Buffalo Wing sauce and a habanero sauce I had on hand.

Gather the ingredients.

• 7-9 Whole Chicken Wings
• 2 tbsp. Cherrywood Smoked Sea Salt
• 2 tbsp. Pecan Liquid Smoke
• ⅔ cup Frank’s Buffalo Wing Sauce
• 1 tbsp. Habanero Sauce
• 1 tbsp. Honey
• 1 tsp. Worcestershire Sauce
• 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
• ½ tsp Celery Seed
• ½ tsp Smoked Paprika
• Joule Sous Vide Cooker
• Sous Vide Container
• Ninja Foodi Grill or Oven

Let’s go to work.

1. Rinse wings and place a large Ziploc freezer bag.
2. Add the smoked salt and liquid smoke to the bag of wings, move everything around to coat the wings evenly.
3. Cook the wings sous vide at 185°F for one hour.
4. Remove the bag from the water bath, and remove the wings, placing them in a bowl.
5. Preheat the Ninja Foodi Grill to “Air Fry” at 400 °F; however, you can also do this in the oven.
6. Set the wings in the air fry basket and cook for about 10 minutes, flipping them after 5 minutes.
7. In a small cup or bowl, combine the remaining ingredients well and set aside.
8. Once the skin on the wings is nice and crispy, pull them out and place them in a large bowl. Pour some of the sauce over the wings and toss until evenly coated. Keep saucing and tossing to your liking.
9. ‘Nuff said! Plate up some of those Honey Habanero Buffalo Wings and enjoy!
