Review – Buffalo Wild Wings Desert Heat and Pepper Infusion Wings

name-hereBuffalo Wild Wings has recently introduced two new flavors to their signature wing line. In this recent case, it is one dry rub seasoning – Desert Heat, and one liquid sauce – Pepper Infusion. This past Thursday I ordered wings with both flavorings, and in the interest of minimizing the mess, I acquired the boneless “wings” which can be eaten with a fork. The following is my review…

Buffalo Wild Wings Introduce Two New Sauces

Buffalo Wild Wings Desert Heat and Pepper Infusion

At participating locations, Buffalo Wild Wings is debuting two new sauce flavors – Desert Heat™ and Pepper Infusion™. The first one, Desert Heat, is not technically a sauce but a dry seasoning that by it’s description sounds like an intriguing chipotle-based flavoring. The Pepper Infusion sauce’s depiction is a little more vague but is probably draws a lot of it’s taste from chiles, and might be quite a bit hotter than Desert Heat. I’ll let you guys know what I think of each when I try them later this week.

Both are available for a limited time. If you wish to sample them yourselves, you can find the location of your nearest Buffalo Wild Wings here.

Review – Mad Anthony’s XXXTRA HOT Private Reserve Hot Sauce

Mad Anthony's XXXTRA HOT Private Reserve Hot Sauce reviewWhen I first tasted Mad Anthony’s Hot Sauce however many years ago, I was incredibly relieved. For one, if it was a sub-par sauce, there have might have been people who accused me of using it and liking it just because Michael Anthony was the bassist for Van Halen, my favorite band of all-time (he was since let go from the group and is now rockin’ it up with Sammy Hagar, Joe Satriani, and Chad Smith in Chickenfoot, but I digress). Two, celebrities and their ilk are quite adapt at releasing and promoting crappy products with their name on it, whether it be food, colounge, shoes, or trash bags (okay, maybe not trash bags). Anthony had actually come up with a quality condiment with the help of Mike and Diane’s Gourmet Kitchen, makers of Ring of Fire hot sauces, and it was something worth shouting about. Anthony has subsequently released a milder version of his hot sauce, a pair of BBQ sauces, and a spicy mustard, all of which are above average. Does his latest creation, the Mad Anthony’s XXXTra Hot Private Reserve, live up to the same high standards as the others?
