Buffalo Wild Wings

Who would have thought buffalo have wings? :)

I fell in love with buffalo wings when I was in college. It was Mojo's wings from Lawrence, KS who captured my heart at first taste. Too bad they went out of business for a while now. Their "Red Code" (the hottest wings on their menu) was divine. But, I am not talking about Mojo's now. I'm talking about Buffalo Wild Wings.

I normally avoid reviewing chain restaurants, but since I love wings so much and theirs have a lot of varieties of sauces, heck, I wanted to talk about them.
My favorite sauces are Mango Habanero and Asian Zing.

Mango Habanero is more like sweet and spicy sauce. It has the sweetness of tropical mango and a whole lot of spiciness of chili pepper. Asian Zing is a lot milder that that and has ginger in it that made it Asian.
And yes, I have tried their Blazin' sauce. I tried it with their drumstick the first time (because of their drumstick special day). It was a HUGE mistake.
Never try Buffalo Wild Wings sauce on a drumstick. They called it 'wings sauce' for a reason.

For a daredevil and stomach hater, Blazin' is actually the perfect sauce for you. No, I'm just kidding here. :)
Blazin' is a really hot and tangy sauce. I really want to re-try eating it one day and have my picture on their wall for taking the Blazin' challenge. :)

For the appetizer section, I liked their Fried garlic Mushroom. The batter is garlicky and somewhat tasty. It goes perfectly well with the cool Ranch dipping sauce.
By the way, Do not order their Desert Heat! They did not taste good. Seriously, they shouldn't even put that on their menu. It's a good thing they only had it for a limited time only.

Oh, their Primo Margarita was also truly a Primo Uno! :)
Buffalo Wild Wings is a great place to go for late snacks or to watch the game.
(I hope someone from the Buffalo Wild Wings reads my blog and compensates me for advertising their restaurant for Free or give me a coupon for a Free margarita. Now, that will really make my day! :) )


A new update (8/25/09)
Brought home three wings with Blazin' sauce today. I wouldn't take chances of having stomach-ache after eating too much wings, so I thought three were enough.
As I mentioned before, the sauce is very very hot and tangy. Not too tangy like regular buffalo wild wings, but enough kick.
The first bite was hard on my tongue. I felt it burned my mouth, my tongue and the whole throat. Then I felt it on my stomach, the burning sensation. I almost cried!
But I kept on going, finishing all three wings with head held high and eyes all watery.
Oh I forgot to mention, I ate them with rice! Yes... rice helped toned down the heat. Forget the basket of fries, forget the Ranch dressings (I ordered the Ranch, though). Rice helped, period!

Hubby asked if I would order wings with Blazin' sauce again, I said I would. But probably not anytime soon. My lips are still burning while I'm typing this. Goodness!

PS: They even put a warning label on the box. Awesome!
