It’s not just the Mad Dog 357 Reaper Pepper Puree that moves it up a notch.
Though that really is the secret you need for this recipe, it’s also the bacon baked on to every single wing. Now, who doesn’t love that?
Though this recipe for 8 takes a little less than an hour, you’ll spend just minutes getting it ready. And then, you’ll watch them disappear in another couple of minutes. Yes, it’s that simple.
All you need to do is figure out what you’ll drink alongside these wings. Champagne goes surprisingly well…
Perhaps make it a celebration.
