This 3-Ingredient Buffalo BBQ Air Fryer Chicken Wings is a super easy method for making homemade chicken wings for Football Sunday or any day!
If I knew how easy it was to make homemade chicken wings before, I would have been doing it every Sunday of football season!
These 3-Ingredient Buffalo BBQ Air Fryer Chicken Wings are inspired by Pat’s favorite flavor of wings: buffalo and BBQ mixed or “bar-b-hot”. He asks every restaurant to toss the wings in half buffalo sauce and half BBQ sauce and it comes out spicy and sweet and SO good.
I wanted to recreate the magic at home, but didn’t want to actually fry the wings. Enter: my handy dandy air fryer.
This magical tool is so easy to use and so easy to clean up after using. I just throw the wings in the air fryer and let it cook until they’re super crispy and golden brown … with no messy oil involved!
Once they’re cooked, just toss them in the sauce combination and you’ve got yourself the perfect football Sunday appetizer or lunch.
I used bottled sauce by Primal Kitchen for ease because they keep their ingredients pretty clean. You can use any bottled buffalo or BBQ sauce you like!
Next time you need a football recipe or easy snack, give these 3-Ingredient Buffalo BBQ Air Fryer Chicken Wings a try!

It took twenty minutes to find the receipe. When I found it I was disappointed that it was for a sauce. Seriously when I think of a three ingredient buffalo wing recipe ii think of salt, pepper, celery salt or some other trio,. not a dipping sauce.. also I never use a sauce in my air fryer because i don't want to spend half an hour cleaning it.. Thanks for the effort though

Hey Paul - this recipe is for the method of cooking chicken wings in the air fryer. I kept it simple with store bought sauce rather than homemade sauce, which is what makes it 3 ingredients. The instructions do not say to cook the wings with sauce ... you cook the wings in the air fryer first, then toss in the sauce.
