buffalo wing foil packs for the grill

In the recent past, our family has become slightly obsessed with the buffalo wing sauce plus Ranch dressing combo. We’ve made nachos, tacos, burritos, shredded chicken for salads, and now these foil packs.

It’s silly simple: mix up the Ranch and buffalo wing sauce. Pour over wings, then wrap in foil. Grill or bake, as directed!

Then, top with crumbled blue cheese and even chopped celery (for the full buffalo chicken effect!)

These babies are freezer friendly, too. Just follow the directions up until the “wrap the foil around the chicken, tightly.” At that point, you can put them into the freezer. I like to place them on a flat surface, like a baking sheet. This helps them get a flat bottom, for when it’s time to cook later, and helps prevent any leakage or spills from the sauce. Then once they are frozen, you can transfer the packs to another baggie or container. When you’re ready to cook them, just let them thaw and grill as directed.

    Are these frozen “4 lbs. boneless chicken wings” or thawed? I’m assuming they have some kind of breading on them, or is it just white breast meat with the sauce on them? I’m just unfamiliar with what boneless chicken wings are. Thanks for your help!
