Buffalo Wild Wings Dry Rub Recipe

You can recreate that delicious experience at home with a few pantry staples, like smoked paprika and brown sugar, that come together for a savory kick.
A pro tip is to let the wings marinate in the rub for at least an hour in the fridge, allowing the spices to meld and penetrate the meat for that deep, smoky goodness you crave.

  • 1 tbsp Salt
  • 1 tbsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tbsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Cayenne Pepper

Instructions
 
  • Mix all the spices in a bowl until they’re well combined.
