Yes, Grandma has a secret chicken wing recipe. She likes to bring them out on game days and blow people's minds that she cares about sports AND that she knows what a great game day snack tastes like. For the record, Granny's Secret Wings are what a great game day snack should taste like — juicy chicken covered in fragrant and zesty spices, then glazed in a tangy and sweet apple butter coating. But then, it gets a double tangy and spicy dipping sauce, because Granny's Secret Wings are all about the sauces! They're a winner, that is for sure!
