Behind the Recipe
Wings. Butter. Hot Sauce. It’s Almost Too Easy.
Okay, the first thing you’ll notice is that this recipe actually has six ingredients, but we took some liberties because half of them (salt, pepper & vegetable oil) are almost guaranteed to be in your pantry already.
Which leaves just three key ingredients left to pull off the easiest, tastiest, lip-smacking party wings you ever cooked on the grill!
The beautiful part about this grilled buffalo wings recipe is how you can make them different every time! While this recipe uses buffalo sauce, you can sub in any type of sauce: teriyaki, garlic parmesan, spicy Asian, honey mustard... whatever gets your mouth watering! Go crazy with it.
Here's a few extra tips for braaing the perfect party wings:
- Before the braai, you can marinate your chicken wings to ensure the flavor really gets into all of those nooks and crannies.
- You can cook these wings up to 3 days ahead. When you’re ready to eat, just place 'em on the grill for some char and heat, toss them in buffalo sauce, and devour.
- Only brush your wings with sauce during the last minute of cooking.
- After braaing, toss your wings in the buffalo sauce while they're still warm for the perfect glaze.
Next time you invite everyone over, break out this recipe for 3-ingredient buffalo wings (and a few extra napkins). Now, get out there and make something tasty!

Using your Nexgrill app set your Pellet Grill to the Smoke cooking method at 180°C and set your probe temperature to 74°C.

During the final minute of cooking, take ¼ cup of your buffalo sauce mixture and start brushing those wings all over.
-
5
Once your probe reads 74°C, pull wings from the grill and into a large bowl.
