Best 8 Bourbon Sauce For Chicken Wings Recipes

SMOKY RUBBED CHICKEN WINGS WITH HONEY, BOURBON, AND MOLASSES SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the sauce: Bring all of the ingredients to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, whisking often. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, whisking occasionally to discourage scorching, until lightly thickened and reduced by about one-quarter, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool. (The sauce can be covered and refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.)
• To make the rub: Whisk all of the ingredients together in a small bowl.
• Put the wingettes in a very large bowl and toss with the rub. Divide the wingettes among two 1-gallon self-sealing plastic bags, seal, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Position racks in the top third and center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line two 18-by-13-inch half-sheet pans with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
• Spread the wingettes out on the baking sheets, spacing them well apart. Roast the wingettes, turning the wings over and switching the positions of the baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back halfway through cooking, until the wings are crisp and cooked through, about 40 minutes. During the last 5 minutes, brush the wings with some of the sauce. Remove the wings from the oven.
• Position a broiler about 8 inches from the source of heat and preheat the broiler on high. In batches, broil the wings to caramelize the sauce in spots, about 3 minutes. Serve hot, with any leftover sauce passed on the side.

STEVE'S BOURBON BUFFALO WING SAUCE

Steps:

• Stir the bourbon, brown sugar, ketchup, white vinegar, hot sauce, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, honey, and butter together in a saucepan over medium heat; cook, whisking occasionally, until the mixture begins to bubble. Reduce heat to low and cook at a gentle simmer, whisking occasionally, until the sauce thickens nearly to the consistency of maple syrup or molasses, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

CHICKEN WINGS WITH BUFFALO SRIRACHA, BOURBON TERIYAKI, SZECHUAN GARLIC AND PARMESAN SAUCES

Steps:

• For the double fried wings: Put the wings in a large container and pour the salt and 2 gallons of water over the top. Let the brine wings sit, refrigerated, for at least 12 hours.
• For the buffalo sriracha sauce: Combine hot sauce, vinegar, sriracha, sriracha powder, soy lecithin powder and xanthan gum in a blender. Melt the butter for about 10 minutes over medium heat. Turn blender on low speed and slowly add butter. Add until all of it has been well blended.
• For the bourbon teriyaki glaze: Combine wine, soy sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, bourbon, garlic and ginger in a pot. Bring to the boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Combine cornstarch with 2 cups water in a bowl, then add cornstarch slurry to the sauce and bring back to the boil for 10 minutes. Simmer and stir until it thickens. Let cool for 20 minutes, then blend until completely purified.
• For the Szechuan Parmesan dry rub: Toast the peppercorns in a pan over medium heat until fragrant, being sure to avoid any charring or burning, then blend to a coarse grain. Mix together with the Parmesan, garlic powder and pepper flakes and store in a dry container.
• For the Szechuan garlic oil: Put oil, garlic and pepper in a pot over medium heat for about 20 minutes to allow flavors to infuse. Cool to room temperature, then store in a dry squeeze bottle.
• For the double fried wings: Heat the vegetable oil in a deep-fryer or Dutch oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the potato starch and 1 cup water in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Dip the wings into the slurry and then into frying oil. Cook for approximately 4 minutes. Take the fried wings out and put them back into the slurry, then fry again for approximately 3 minutes more.
• Toss a third of the wings in the buffalo sauce and a third in the teriyaki glaze. Lightly coat the remaining third of the wings in the Szechuan garlic oil, then sprinkle the Szechuan Parmesan dry rub over them.
