Three tips that finally gave me that stick to the wings buffalo sauce and not buffalo soup:

  1. Mix everything but the butter/margarine in a bowl. Melt the butter slowly and mix it into the room temp hot sauce.
  2. Make the sauce ahead and let it sit. It thickens over time.
  3. 1 Tbs of honey for texture.

    Good call on the honey. Molasses can be a good change up as well, and I absolutely second the make ahead and let it rest approach.

    i like to go with hot honey, i sometimes will mix in some corn starch as well

    These look so good. I do the same thing with honey! And low heat for a while until it starts to thicken.

    Only addition is I add a dash of white wine vinegar.

    So are you putting slightly warmer than room temp sauce on the wings right out the frier?

    Bring hot sauce up to simmer in pan. Remove from heat, throw in small tabs of cold butter while stirring. Continue to stir until butter is incorporated. Season to taste.

    How are you getting that breading / crust? Looks flame

    I hope this doesn’t get lost: same idea but do the opposite. Heat your hot sauce very low until it just has a wisp of steam coming off of it. Move it off heat. Melt super cold butter into it whisking constantly until it’s melted. You are suspending the hot sauce in butter. It will be velvety in texture and thicker. Honey is great and adds balance but won’t be necessary. It’s basically what is called Beurre Monte.
