sweet and spicy wings

we love football around here
by the time the first kick-off  happens
i've worked myself into a frenzy
i have watched the draft
poured over stats
and chosen my fantasy football team
all that is left 
is the cryin'
i serve these on sundays
because wings are helpful
while performing
the lambeau leap
sweet and spicy wings
(printable recipe)
3 dozen chicken wings
1 recipe sweet sauce
1 recipe spicy sauce
ranch dressing for dipping
sweet sauce
2 Tbs brown sugar
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar (doesn't have to be fancy)
2 Tbs ketchup
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
mix together and split into 2 bowls
spicy sauce
1 stick butter--melted
1/4 cup + 2 Tbs hot sauce (i use tapatio)
1 Tbs brown sugar
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 tsp kosher salt
2 shakes worcestershire sauce
1 Tbs white vinegar
mix together and split into 2 bowls
* i split the sauce into 2 portions because i like to avoid cross-contamination.
toss the chicken wings in a bit of olive oil and place on 2 sheet pans.  sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper and roast in a 375 oven for 20 minutes. after 20 minutes toss 1/2 of the wings in the sweet sauce, and 1/2 of the wings in the spicy sauce.  place on separate sheet pans back into the oven for an additional 20 minutes.  they should be good and golden at this point.  remove from the oven and toss in the reserved sauce (not the sauce you used when they were 1/2 cooked). serve with lots of napkins
EAT UP!
