How to Host the Ultimate Chicken Wing Party

There are few things that bring people together like a large plate of chicken wings, crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and bursting with flavour. And if you're wanting to go all out and throw a chicken wing party, it takes more than just ordering takeout. From picking the right sauces to getting your perfect sides, here is everything you need to know about how to host the perfect wing party that'll be in everyone's mouth. And for a wing sauce that will leave that memorable kick of spiciness in the mouth, you might want to include Naagin The Original Hot Sauce in the deal as this is the best way of adding authentic and bold flavours to any wing.

1. Select Your Wing Style

• Fried Wings: Classic, crispy, and golden, fried wings are crowd-pleasers that never go out of style. Just be sure to have some paper towels on hand—fried wings can get a bit messy!
• Baked Wings: This is a healthy option; baking wings is very easy and delicious. Though they are not going to be deep-fried crispy, a high-temperature bake will give you crispy wings.
• Grilled Wings: This is for those outdoor get-togethers because grilling gives a smoky flavour to the wings. When you host your backyard party, then this is one of the options you may consider in giving that charred and smoky taste.
• Air-Fried Wings: If you are lucky enough to have an air fryer, fantastic! Air-fried wings are crispy with a light coating of oil. Air-fried wings are perfect for those who want their food to be healthier but don't have to sacrifice great taste.
• Regardless of whether you are air-frying or deep-frying wings, make sure you've got enough wings for everybody. Plan on at least 8-10 wings per person so no one leaves hungry.

2. Bring On the Sauces

• Naagin The Original Hot Sauce: If it's something a little stronger than you'd typically consume, try the authentic, Indian-inspired hot sauce Naagin offers, giving your tongue the bold spiciness. Serve that over some wings and live life in flavour!
• Classic Buffalo: A must-have for any wing party, classic Buffalo sauce brings that tangy, spicy flavour everyone loves.
• Honey BBQ: Honey BBQ will be for those who enjoy a little less heat. It is sweet and easy to mix with any method of cooking.
• Garlic Parmesan: For those who like garlic and fewer hot tastes, Garlic Parmesan is a good go-to creamy garlicky sauce.
• Provide separate bowls of each for people to dip into with small name labels.

3. Have some side options

• Wings are the stars, but sides are a must to complete the meal. Here are a few sides that go well with chicken wings:
• Potato Wedges: Crispy seasoned potato wedges are a great option. Serve them with a few dipping sauces like ranch, garlic aioli, or even Naagin Hot Sauce for those who love extra spice.
• Veggie Sticks: Balance it all out with carrot and celery sticks, and don't forget some blue cheese or ranch dressing for dipping.
• Coleslaw: The creamy refreshing side adds in a nice crunch and offers a little relief from that heat.
• Mac & Cheese: Some comfort food goodness, mac and cheese will be a crowd favourite; it goes really well paired with spicy wings.
• This side should be arranged buffet style so that guests can grab their favourites. This way, it's casual and easy for everyone.

4. Dipping Station

• Ranch & Blue Cheese: These are classics. They're especially great to cool down the spicier wings.
• Spicy Aioli: Combine mayonnaise with a touch of garlic, Naagin The Original Hot Sauce, for a rich, spicy dip.
• Honey Mustard: Sweet, tangy, and wonderful overall wing flavours.
• Hot Sauce: Get Naagin Hot Sauce for a truly unbelievable twist. Dips, wings, fries, even veggies.

5. Host a Flavour Challenge

6. Have plenty of re-freshers

• Beer: Classic pair for wings, this cool drink tempers the spices. Use a few flavors—you'll want to offer lighter beers like lagers, but IPAs make a fantastic twist.
• Iced Tea or Lemonade: Two other great, no-calorie options, they quench thirst and may calm down the flames a little.
• Mocktails: Come up with some house specials, such as a cucumber-mint cooler or berry lemonade. These drinks are refreshing, fun twists on the cocktail side, for those abstainers in the crowd.

7. Unleash Your Imagination - Presentation!

• Use platters: Serve on large platters or trays so everyone can grab some of the different flavours with ease.
• Small Labels: Small labels for the different sauces and sides so people know what they are trying. It is particularly helpful to those seeking to try Naagin The Original Hot Sauce and others in the bolder range.
• Napkins & Wet Wipes: Wings can be messy, so have plenty of napkins and wet wipes around the table for easy clean-up.

8. Set the Mood

Finally, add a little ambiance to your party space! If you're hosting outdoors, hang some string lights or set up some outdoor seating to create a cosy atmosphere. Indoors, consider some fun background music and a few comfy spots to sit. Wings are the star, but a great atmosphere will keep everyone feeling comfortable and in party mode.
