Ingredients

1⁄2	Pound	Butter
1⁄4	Cup	BBQ Sauce
1⁄3	Cup	Louisiana or Red Hot hot sauce
2	Tablespoon	distilled vinegar
1	Tablespoon	Cayenne Pepper
1	Tablespoon	black peper
2	Tablespoon	onion powder
2	Tablespoon	garlic powder
5	Pound	assorted chicken wing pieces
1	Pound	celery, cut into pieces
2	Cup	Blue Cheese Dressing

Instructions

Soften butter, but do not let it melt completely.
Whisk in BBQ sauce, hot sauce, vinegar, cayenne, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
Defrost the wings, drain any liquid, and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake at 400˚ for one hour, or until the wings are nicely brown and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
Remove the wings from the oven and toss them with the sauce.
Arrange them neatly on a platter and drizzle with remaining sauce.
Serve with blue cheese dressing and celery on the side.

Notes

It is important to dip the chicken wings into the blue cheese dressing. This way, you experience the cooling effect the dressing provides against the hot sauce and tangy vinegar. The celery helps to clean all of the richness from the wings, sauce, and dressing.
