Scott's Buffalo Wing Sauce is a classic American sauce often used to add a spicy kick to chicken wings. It was invented in 1964 by Teressa Bellissimo at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York. Since then, it has become a staple in American cuisine and is often used as a dipping sauce for chicken wings, chicken tenders, and other fried foods. The sweetness from honey and ketchup in the recipe balances out the spiciness of the hot pepper sauce, making it a perfect sauce for those who enjoy a little heat in their food.

Instructions

1.	In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
2.	Add in the hot pepper sauce, ketchup, and honey. Whisk to combine.
3.	Continue to cook the sauce, stirring occasionally, until it begins to simmer.
4.	Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook the sauce for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and all the ingredients are well combined.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

While Scott’s Buffalo Wing Sauce is not particularly healthy, it can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet in moderation.
The hot pepper sauce used in the recipe contains capsaicin, which has been linked to boosting metabolism and aiding in digestion. However, this is only in small amounts and does not outweigh the negative effects of the high sodium and calorie content of the sauce.
