This recipe comes from the Food Network, but it does not appear on their website.  Pat Neely said during the episode that he never gives this recipe out… so we felt lucky to get it.  Read about the Neely's biography here...

Start with ½ stick of butter or margarine, and melt in a pot on the stove over medium heat.  Add 1 clove of chopped garlic, and let it simmer while mixing the rest of the sauce.

Wisk the following ingredients together:

2 Tbsp brown sugar

½ cup hot sauce (Frank’s RedHot® is best!)

1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

¼ tsp Worcestershire sauce

After mixing the above ingredients, add the butter/garlic mixture and stir together.

About an hour before cooking, season the wings liberally with lemon pepper, then cover and refrigerate.

Mix the following ingredients together:

2 tsp dry rub mixture (your favorite BBQ dry rub will do fine)

2 tsp salt

¼ tsp cayenne pepper

Heat your frying oil to 350ºF.  Fry the wings for 12-15 minutes.  Put cooked wings on a wire rack and season liberally with the dry rub.  This step must take place immediately after cooking.  Then, dip the seasoned wings in the wet sauce and enjoy!

A great dipping sauce:

¼ cup blue cheese crumbles

1/3 cup sour cream

¼ cup buttermilk

¼ tsp sugar

2 tsp apple cider vinegar

Mix all ingredients and refrigerate.
