Here's a really good recipe I got off the Food Network web site a while back. I had always loved
Buffalo Wings, but they're so inconsistent from place to place. The wings in this recipe are great; spicy but
not overpowering. The bleu cheese dressing is pretty good, but it's easier to go to the store and buy
a jar of T. Marzetti's.

30 minutes to 2 hours.

bleu cheese, salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve wings.

sheet for 20-25 minutes.

It's a great recipe if you like wings. The double-saucing was my own innovation.
