Tired applying this after wings came out of the oven to see if it would work and it didn’t. This needs to be applied before going in the oven. I figured that would be the case, but you don’t know until you try!Also, there isn’t much zest in this, so I bumped that up.Original Recipe

The purpose of this sauce is to provide an alternative to those who don’t like blue cheese but need a dip to cut the heat.Even though the original recipe is pretty traditional, I thought it was too thin for my taste. Also not flavorful enough. So I decreased the mayo/vinegar to spices ratio. I want this more of a dip than a ‘sauce.’Original Recipe
