Chicken Wings in the Oven

Sundays are usually a day for Football watching and YUMMY Food!
Yesterday, though we had a lot of yardwork to get done and our neighbors were kind enough to come help us out! So I made these wings for lunch and they were a big hit!!-Spicy, crispy, messy and DELICIOUS! If you love wings you must give these a try!

CHICKEN WINGS: Serves 4-5 people

*4 lbs. Chicken Wings
*2 Tablespoons Baking Powder
*3/4 teaspoons Salt
*Sauce (2 Recipes to follow)

1-Preheat the oven to 250.
2-Place a wire rack into a foil-lined, rimmed baking sheet. (I used the rack where I usually put my cookies to cool.)
3-Spray with non-stick cooking spray
4-Pat wings dry with a papertowel and place into a large bowl. Toss with baking powder and salt until the wings are evenly coated.
5-Arange wings skin side up on the rack. Place on the lower oven rack and bake 30 min.
6-Move wings to upper oven rack and turn oven to 425 and bake another 45-50 minutes. Turn baking sheet around halfway through. Remove from oven and make your sauce. Toss chicken with the sauce, place on serving tray and Serve!

HONEY BBQ SAUCE:
*1/2 Cup of your favorite BBQ Sauce--I used Famous Daves Texas Pit
*3 Tablespoons Honey
*Hot Sauce to taste

Mix all together and toss with wings. This one was delicious and you can make it as spicy or non-spicy as you would like :)

BUFFALO SAUCE:
*1/2 Cup Hot Sauce

Mix together and toss with wings. This one is VERY hot, but good!
