Game Day Wings: 4 Ways

Hosting for game day can quickly turn into overwhelm when different people like different things. Game Day wings are an easy solution. Cook them all together and then divide into four glazes that are comprised of similar ingredients and accompanying dips! Some will bring the heat, like Calicutts’ Cajun Blackened and Thai Si Racha. Others will be a little sweet like Caribbean and Sweet Ginger Teriyaki. Either way, everyone is happy.
