If you can't visit the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, NY, this Buffalo Wing Sauce is the next best thing. The sauce has a good balance of tangy, spicy, and buttery goodness. The initial kick of heat wakes up your taste buds. Coat chicken wings with this zesty Buffalo sauce and serve with Blue cheese or ranch dressing for game day snacking. For years I thought they called them Buffalo Wings because they were bold and mean. Then, I found out they were conceived at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York. Dominic Bellisimo was tending bar late one night in 1964 when a group of friends arrived with an appetite. Dominic asked his mother, who was working in the kitchen, to whip up something for his friends. Not enamored by the situation, she decided to make the gang something different. She proceeded to make history with her wings. The following is said to be a copy of her sauce. But truthfully, that's a guarded secret.
