Day Nineteen

The point total so far should total 114 after the end of today. Just making sure people are keeping track of their totals as well as their points for each day. Wanted to start posting a few summer recipes..aka more grilling. Today's recipe is just for a simple buffalo chicken wing. I made them on the grill, but they can also be broiled in the oven.

Buffalo Chicken Wings
  • chicken wingettes (2 pacakges)
  • 1/2 cup Frank's Red Hot Sauce
  • 1/3 cup of butter (melted)
Place the wingettes on the grill The grill should be set to ow heat. (I know it will feel like they are taking forever, but trust me it will be worth it)


 While the wings are cooking melt the butter over the stove or in the microwave and add in the hot sauce. The hot sauce can be found at Shop-Rite, Wegman's, or in a bigger container at BJ's. Pour the sauce over the wings and and toss them.
And it's that easy.

Caution, Amateur Hour: Female grilling, hope you like your wings crispy. (I'm just thankful I still have eyebrows.)
If you are not a buffalo sauce fan, you can still make these wings with a barbecue sauce (just be sure to make your own, I've attached a link) or season your wings before you grill them with fresh herbs and spices.

Condiment's
Honestly I don't ever make my own barbecue sauce or ketchup. The shelf life is a pain in the butt and I don't really think it's worth it to make. After these first couple of weeks you probably realize that you don't miss any of the sauces. Instead, buy good meat and cook it well and you should be well off. I'd rather heap some guacamole on my chicken then smother it in barbecue sauce. But the recipes are here, give them a try even once if you're up for it.
