Buffalo Wild Wings Spicy Garlic Sauce

Last Thursday was Derek's birthday.  For dinner I surprised him by getting a babysitter for our boys and taking him out to dinner. He didn't know where we were going. I typed in the address in the GPS and he drove there unsure of where exaclty we were going. Well, the GPS took us to Buffalo Wild Wings!  He was so excited. We have been watching them build the restaurant for the past few months and it just recently opened. It is the only one in Utah and Derek always mentioned how much he'd like to try it.  We really liked it there. It had a fun atmosphere and it was fun trying the different sauces. Our favorite was the spicy garlic sauce.

The next day I ate the few left overs we had and he came home from work and was sad there weren't any more leftovers, especially the spicy garlic sauce. Oops! I felt really bad so I decided to make it up by making him my amazing Baked Boneless Buffalo Wings with the Buffalo Wild Wings Spicy Garlic Sauce. I was pleased with how simple it was and how good it tasted! It was really spicy though so for those of you like me who can't handle too much spice I have directions on the bottom of how to make it less spicy.  This recipe is a keeper!  The sauce has a lot of great flavors to it. This amount of sauce is the perfect amount with my  Baked Boneless Buffalo Wings . Or you can use it on any wing recipe. 

Buffalo Wild Wings Spicy Garlic Sauce
Recipe adapted from Yummly

Ingredients:

½ cup buffalo sauce (Frank’s red)

2 Tbsp. vegetable oil

½ tsp. sugar

¾ tsp. garlic powder

¼ tsp. black pepper (ground)

½ tsp cayenne (powder)

¼ tsp. Worcestershire sauce

½ egg yolk

1 tsp. water

1 tsp. cornstarch

Directions:

In a small sauce pan combine first seven ingredients. Heat over medium heat until sauce begins to boil.  Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat and allow to cool for 8 minutes.

Separate egg whites from egg yolk and put the egg yolk in a small bowl.  Using a spoon, cut yolk in half and put in another container.  Whisk egg yolk and water together.  Add cornstarch and continue to whisk until cornstarch is completely dissolved.  Slowly add egg mixture to the hot sauce mixture. Continually whisk to create an emulsion. Put back on the stove and bring to a boil stirring constantly. Once it boils turn heat off. Cover sauce and chill until needed or use right away.

*To make less spicy: Omit cayenne powder and add melted butter or water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until you reach desired heat level.

I like to use my recipe for Boneless Baked Buffalo Wings with this sauce. It's amazing!
