Cajun Jerk Buffalo Chicken Wings

Cajun Jerk Buffalo Chicken Wings

So a few weeks ago I made dinner up as I cooked, with no plan in place really. That’s when I came up with a Cajun Jerk Buffalo Chicken Wings recipe.

I had some chicken wings and made up this sauce that was basically all three of my husband’s favorite chicken wing sauces combined into one.

He loves cajun wings, also Caribbean Jerk wings, and garlic parmesan.

Well, when I told him I designed wings especially for him he was thrilled.

He was a bit concerned when he realized “jerk” was in the title…but I quickly reminded him of his love for jerk wings.

I might love him a little…

I had no plan of posting this recipe because of how weird it is, but my whole family was pretty insistent that I post it.

Because (and I quote my daughter)…”Mom, people NEED to experience how amazing these are!”

So this time I measured and recipe tested, and today I bring you the strangest wing sauce ever that oddly makes perfect sense once you taste it đŸ™‚

How to make Cajun Jerk Buffalo Chicken Wings

The sauce is cajun seasoning, Caribbean Jerk seasoning, soy sauce, butter, garlic, parmesan cheese, and buffalo sauce.

Bring it just to a boil and simmer for a minute.

See…told ya it’s weird đŸ˜‰

Put four pounds of jumbo split wings in a gallon size plastic bag with half a cup of the sauce.

Massage the bag until evenly mixed and marinate an hour at least, or even overnight.

Then onto the smoker or on a baking sheet and into the oven.

If smoking these wings they will take two and a half hours total at 250 degrees.

And if baking them about 45 minutes at 400 degrees.

Flip the wings halfway through using either cooking method.

And also brush with more of the yummy sauce during the last half hour.

Toss the Cajun Jerk Buffalo Chicken Wings in the remaining sauce before serving.

You could serve these with ranch or blue cheese for dipping, as usually that’s how we like our wings.

But I actually preferred these just like this.

Ingredients

  • 4 pounds jumbo split chicken wings
  • 1 Tbsp cajun seasoning
  • 1 Tbsp Caribbean Jerk seasoning
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsps butter
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups buffalo sauce (I used Franks)
  • Optional: ranch dressing for dipping

Instructions

  1. Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and put them in a gallon size plastic bag.

  2. Add remaining ingredients to a saucepan and bring just to a boil and simmer for 1 minute.

  3. Add 1/2 cup of this mixture to the bag with the chicken wings and massage the bag until evenly combined.

    Marinate in the fridge one hour or over night. Store remaining sauce in a covered container in the fridge.

  4. Place the chicken wings in a smoker set to 250 degrees for two and a half hours. Flip them halfway through. Brush with the sauce during the last half hour. Check the internal temp to make sure they are at 170 degrees before serving.

    Note, these can also be baked in the oven: Place wings on a lined baking sheet and put in a 400 degree oven for 45 minutes, flip them halfway through. Brush with the sauce during the last half hour. Check the internal temp to make sure they are at 170 degrees before serving.

  5. Toss with the remaining sauce and serve with ranch dressing for dipping if desired.
