Guy's love for spicy food runs deep. When he was in college, he didn't have enough money for the Buffalo wings at the local bar, so he found another way to get his fix: He'd order a basket of fries for a dollar, then get a side of hot sauce for 25 cents and toss the fries in the sauce. For another 25 cents, he'd add a cup of blue cheese dressing. So for $1.50, Guy felt like he was eating spicy Buffalo wings...without the wings! He now has dozens of his own restaurants across the country, and they're all big on heat. Try a few appetizers from his menus, including his take on those beloved fries.

Vegas Fries

To recreate his college favorite, Guy tosses crispy waffle fries with Buffalo seasoning, then serves them with a tangy homemade Buffalo sauce. "Even when I got out of college and worked in restaurants, this was always my go-to snack—Vegas fries, baby!"

Dynamite Shrimp

This app gets a triple dose of heat: It's coated with Cajun seasoning, topped with fresh chiles and served with a sweet chili sauce. An air fryer is a great way to make the dish at home.

Sriracha Wings

Sriracha lovers, these wings are for you: Guy tosses them with sriracha butter plus a spicy sriracha seasoning mix. The side of ranch cools things off!
