Oh buffalo wing sauce….you are simply divine. Your tangy, spicy, complex flavor is so amazing and perfectly acceptable on everything from chicken to pretzels. So, in the interest of celebrating one of our beloved spices, we’re sharing our favorite buffalo flavors in town, proving that this sauce goes with more than just chicken wings. Don’t wait for football season or “Florida fall” to enjoy some buffalo sauce, go ahead, grab some spicy goodness this summer.
The Coop: Their giant buffalo chicken tenders are well, giant. With a distinct flavor and a lot of spice, these tenders are worth a trip to The Coop. Add my favorite hop ‘n john and some sweet tea for a spicy Southern meal.
PDQ: Located in Sanford, this quick serve restaurant is known for their fresh tenders and are emerging as new player in the fast casual field. We recently ordered their Crispy Chicken Salad with buffalo sauce all served over mixed greens, cucumber, tomato and cheese. If you’re going to eat a salad it might as well be topped with buffalo sauce, right?
Publix Buffalo Chicken Tender Sub: On nights I don’t feel like cooking, my go-to is more often than not a Publix sub. They fill a fluffy bun with the most addicting chicken fingers slathered in buffalo sauce and we top it with mayo, tomato and sharp cheddar cheese. It’s uber healthy.
Pretzel Crisps Buffalo Wing: No chicken required here, the buffalo flavor is equally tasty on pretzels – especially these pretzel crackers. Even better, Publix often puts these pretzels on BOGO. Why not have a Publix Buffalo Chicken Tender Sub with a side of buffalo pretzel chips? Excuse me while I go overdose on buffalo.
Snyder’s Gluten Free Pretzel Sticks, Hot Buffalo Wing: And for the gluten free peeps try the Snyder’s version. I may or may not eat an entire bag on average each week. Gluten free means it’s “healthy” right?
