Fun fact: I lived in Buffalo, NY for 6 years while getting my undergrad and graduate degrees. I learned a LOT while I was there, but one major life lesson was learning what a good chicken wing is. Seriously! They take it so seriously there and everyone even has a favorite place to eat them. I’m personally a huge fan of Duff’s, while others are die-hard fans of Anchor Bar.

There are soooo many other places too, but these are two of the most popular. Well, there is of course the homemade version too, which is what I do now since I’m hours and hours away from Duff’s. I usually make mine in the oven or on the grill, both of which yield different flavors based on my mood. But today, I tried it in my toy – the Cuisinart Air Fryer. Air fryers are a fun kitchen gadget to have because they cook food faster than they would in a traditional oven. They made these chicken wings perfectly too!

I will say though, don’t try making this with anything other than Frank’s Red Hot Sauce. There really is nothing in comparison and don’t try to convince me otherwise. 🙂
