Hot wings at a chain near you!

Every big city has their own hot wing franchise that we commonly see around the US. Out of many around town, I choose my favorite three in Memphis to begin the heat comparison:

Hooters, Wolfchase - Memphis, TN

If you like really hot wings, then you know Hooters isn't the place to go. If you like a consistent, meaty wing with that classic flavor then you know it is. Out of all the Hooters I have been to around the country, this is in my top three for sure. 3 Mile Island is always my choice, but Hooters sauce is very low on the heat scale.





Buffalo Wild Wings, Wolfchase - Memphis, TN

No other chain has the variety like B-dubs. My pantry always has some of their sauce handy. Although their wings aren't very meaty, it's a good idea to head their way for Tuesday wing and beer specials. I enjoy their Spicy Garlic and Hot BBQ wings but their Blazin tops the list. It takes about 6 to break a sweat with burning lips long after consumption. It's almost like the sensation is hotter after you eat them which is evidence of a habanero extract. I love this sauce and use it often at home on chicken sandwiches or wings.





Wingstop - Cordova, TN

I have seen these places around the country and just recently found out that they have an incredibly hot wing. Now this is what I'm looking for. Their Atomic wings live up to their name. It only took 2 for the sweat to start building and after 10 of them, I was hurting. The pain didn't last too long afterward with the aid of milk but the sweat continued. My shirt was actually saturated around the neck. Out of all the chains I have been to, these top the heat list and they definitely BURNED MY MOUTH!!!
