Blazing Wings

3 cups all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons cayenne pepper

2 tablespoons paprika

2 teaspoons salt

2 teaspoons ground black pepper

5 pounds chicken wings, cut apart at joints, wing tips discarded

2 quarts vegetable oil for frying

2 cups butter, melted

2 (5 ounce) bottles hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®)

2 (5 ounce) bottles habanero hot sauce

5 habanero peppers, seeded and chopped (wear gloves)

1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained

Mix the flour, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, and black pepper in a large resealable plastic bag.

Drop 5 or 6 wings at a time into the flour mixture. Seal the bag and shake to coat wings with flour.

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Gently lower the coated wings into the hot oil and deep-fry until wings are no longer pink in the center and the coating is golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes.

Drain the wings on paper towels and set aside.

Place the butter, hot pepper sauce, habanero pepper sauce, habanero peppers, and pineapple into the pitcher of a blender. Blend the sauce until smooth (do not allow sauce to touch your eyes); pour into a large resealable plastic bag.

Place the fried chicken wings into the bag of sauce, 5 or 6 at at a time, seal the bag, and gently shake to coat the wings in the sauce. Remove to a platter for serving.
