Mustard Hot Wings

makes 24 wings

Ingredients:

wing flour coating:

1 cup all purpose flour

1 teaspoon San Fran Sea Salt

1 teaspoon Big Sur Gourmet Cowboy Rub

1 teaspoon garlic powder

24 chicken wings (drummies and flats)

1/2 cup oil (plus more if working in batches)

mustard hot sauce:

1/4 cup butter, melted

1/4 cup hot sauce (like Franks)

1/2 cup Gil's Jalapeño Mustard or Garlic Mustard

1/4 cup maple syrup

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

Directions:

Combine flour, salt, cowboy rub and garlic powder in a plastic baggie, seal and shake to combine. Add chicken wings and shake to coat. Let wings sit in flour mix for 30 minutes before frying.

Preheat oil in a large skillet or dutch oven.

Carefully place wings into the hot oil and fry for 10-15 minutes, flipping occasionally, until cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the hot oil and let drain on a wire rack.

While the wings are cooking, combine butter, hot sauce, mustard, maple syrup and Worcestershire in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add wings to the sauce and toss to coat.

Serve wings with your favorite blue cheese dressing and celery sticks.
