Football is here and entertaining for the game is what I LOVE LOVE LOVE to do!!!! Anyone who knows me knows I love to entertain and what better an event than a good game of Football, Basketball, Volleyball, Hockey, Golf or WHATEVA sport you love to watch. Invite family and friends over and make them some wings baby!!!! I will be posting my recipe for Game Night Buffalo Wings, but I wanted to give something different, to add some variety to your game!! These wings are full of flavor. From the sweetness of when I brined the wings in root beer to the Capital City Mumbo Sauce I used, the flavor will have you licking your fingers, so be sure to provide napkins for your guests!! Enjoy Enjoy and one more ENJOY – LETS PLAY BALL!!!!
Shhhh! Don’t tell anyone but I drank this entire bottle of Mumbo Sauce! Hope I don’t have a WingOver in the morning! HAHA!!
GAME NIGHT MUMBO WINGS
INGREDIENTS:
Wingettes
4-6 cups of root beer (I used A&W)
6 tbsp. of kosher salt (no iodine)
Mumbo Sauce (I used Capital City Mumbo Sauce)
Cooking spray (I use Pam)
4 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
Sea salt (to taste)
Ground Pepper (to taste)
Granulated Garlic (to taste)
READY, SET GO:
- Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees
- Clean wingettes
- Brine wingettes in root beer and kosher salt with a cover in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours (brine means to allow to soak in)
- After wingettes are brined drain and pat dry with paper towel
- Put wingettes in a bowl and add extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, ground pepper and granulated garlic and toss to coat wingettes
- Line baking sheet(s) with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray
- Line wingettes on baking sheet bone up
- Spray the wingettes with cooking spray (this will give the skin a nice crispy texture)
- Bake in oven for 40 minutes (20 minutes on each side – once you turn wingettes over make sure you spray that side with cooking spray for crispy skin) or until cooked through
- After wingettes are baked through, transfer wingettes to baking pan and pour mumbo sauce all over wingettes
- After wingettes are covered nicely in the mumbo sauce return to the oven to bake for another 10 minutes so sauce can get to know the wingettes well
- Remove from oven and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before serving
- Enjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy and one more Enjoy!! OH and don’t forget your napkins, you WILL get the urge to lick your fingers!!
** Tip – This recipe is sweet and tangy, if you want to spice it up, add some cayenne pepper
