About 7 years ago, I began to hate Wingers. Don't get me wrong, I loved it...once. But when my first pregnancy hit, it was good-bye Wingers, especially their Amazing Sauce. I just couldn't stomach it.
Fast Forward 6 1/2 years.
My hubby is still madly in love with Wingers and their Sticky Fingers...me, nope. Still can't eat it. A new one opened up by our house that is more like a sports bar & Grill. I completely LOVE places like that. So, I went with him, for him, only to fall deeply and madly in LOVE with their Sticky Finger Salad. Oh yeah! Every time I ate it, I would look at it and start my inner monologue saying, "If only I could figure out the Amazing Sauce, I'd be set. There's NOTHING to this salad otherwise!"
Well, my dearest readers, today I am here to share with you that AMAZING recipe for the sauce that brings everything together in ooey gooey sticky spicy goodness. I found it on my new favorite blog, Favorite Family Recipes. It tastes absolutely IDENTICAL to the Amazing Sauce from Wingers. NO KIDDING!
So, while you're enjoying your most AMAZING wing dinner at home, enjoy the fact that you're also saving yourself LOTS and LOTS of money! We normally spent $40+ to eat out there ($50 if we took the kids!). This meal cost me around $10 for all 4 of us! Now THAT makes it taste even better!!!
It took me a while to find Frank's Hot Sauce, but finally found it at Reams. I found the Chicken Strips at both Walmart and WinCo.

I love this salad! We have almost the same one our blog!
ReplyDeleteIt is funny how pregnancy does things like that to you. I will not eat at Arby's, Training Table, or will not eat a steak!
When I was pregnant with our first 13 years ago, I decided I hated Chinese food (loved it before that). Still to this day don't care for it at all. Someday maybe.
ReplyDeleteI've never had the Winger's salad. I'll have to try your recipe sometime.
Love this! I've bookmarked it so I don't forget it.
ReplyDeleteThis was wonderful Lisa. I NEEDED to make this for lunch today. I did not add the extra blue cheese but keaton and I loved it none the less :)
