Cook time: P0Y0M0DT0H45M0.000S
Total time: P0Y0M0DT3H25M0.000S
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
Ingredients: 2 pounds chicken wings; 1 cup favorite Italian dressing; 5 tablespoons Dirty Seasoning, recipe follows, plus more for sprinkling; 2 tablespoons granulated sugar; 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper; 2 cups Butcha’s Bama Cue Sauce, recipe follows, plus more for serving; Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish; 1 cup rice wine vinegar; 1/4 cup minced white onion; 3 tablespoons granulated sugar; 2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic; 4 cups mayonnaise; 1 tablespoon ground black pepper; 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt; 1 teaspoon cayenne; 1 teaspoon ground cumin; 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger; 4 tablespoons ancho chile powder (regular will work); 2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin; 1 tablespoon granulated garlic; 1 tablespoon granulated onion; 2 teaspoons dried oregano; 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Directions

Combine the wings, dressing, Dirty Seasoning, sugar and cayenne thoroughly in a non-reactive bowl. Let marinate anywhere from 2 to 24 hours, covered and refrigerated. Just remember, longer marinade equals more flavor and more tender!
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Lay the wings on a baking sheet and bake for 7 to 8 minutes. Turn the wings and cook until fully cooked, another 5 to 7 minutes (see Cook's Note).
Place the wings in a bowl large enough to toss. Add enough Bama Cue sauce to lightly coat, then sprinkle with more Dirty Seasoning.
Place on a platter and drizzle with more Bama Cue. Finish with Dirty Seasoning and fresh cilantro.

Butcha’s Bama Cue Sauce:

Yield: Makes 4 cups

Heat the vinegar on the stove until just simmering. Add the onion, sugar and garlic. Let cool.
Combine the vinegar mixture with the mayonnaise, pepper, salt, cayenne, cumin and ginger in a blender until combined and smooth.

Dirty Seasoning:

Yield: Makes about 3/4 cup

Mix the chile powder, cumin, granulated garlic and onion, oregano and thyme in a bowl, then toast in a nonstick pan on low heat until it becomes aromatic. You can substitute a favorite Cajun seasoning blend, but we strongly encourage this toasting step, as it adds such a depth of flavor!

Cook’s Note

At this stage, you can cool the wings and dredge them in rice flour, then fry until crispy, if desired.
