Everyone should check out the new Wingstop location in Sycamore; it’s to die for. It’s also the closest Wingstop to NIU!
With 13 flavors of chicken wings to choose from, dry to wet, wing enthusiasts trust that Wingstop can quench their thirst for sauce.
Sides like carrots and celery give that extra fresh crunch when it’s needed, and fries can be flavored with dry rub wing flavors like garlic parmesan, hot honey and lemon pepper.
Does one of the addicting Wingstop flavors beat the rest?
Lemon Pepper is a classic Wingstop flavor.
It’s zesty and salty and compliments the hearty chicken well. The black pepper of the dry rub brings an earthy dimension to the flavor.
Lemon Pepper is tangy, citrussy and intense followed by a harmony of subtle spice from the black pepper. Like a fierce ray of sunshine, lemon pepper also goes great with the Wingstop ranch, which is garlicky and smooth.
Crisp and comforting, it’s a flavor that will always be there for you.
HICKORY SMOKED BBQ
Smooth, reliable, savory, garlicky, candied, spicy… I can go on.
There is a lot to love about Hickory Smoked BBQ. It’s a classic go-to that’s full of flavor. This rich flavor is sticky, sweet and intense which balances out nicely with fried chicken.
Fantastically enjoyable on both boneless and bone-in chicken wings, Hickory Smoked BBQ leaves any Wingstop customer craving more. It’s hard to master a barbeque sauce that isn’t overwhelming, and that’s the colorful Hickory Smoked BBQ’s specialty.
ORIGINAL HOT
Original Hot at Wingstop is a flavor as old as time.
This one really lets the crispy chicken do the talking, with a vinegary and tangy hot sauce that offers a satisfying kick that’s just enough.
The crunchy exterior pairs with the juicy chicken to make an excellent wing experience – you can’t go wrong with the Original Hot.
SPICY KOREAN BBQ
Like sitting near a warm campfire, Wingstop’s Spicy Korean BBQ is a flavor that brings a rich smoky warmth that would ignite anyone’s soul.
The flavor is sticky and caramelized and has an essence of ginger, soy and spice. This textural and flavorful experience will instantly get you hooked.
It’s the best of both worlds when you want something spicy and salty but don’t want to give up the great things about BBQ.
Scoring a 3/5 spicy level on Wingstop’s website, wing lovers can expect a little kick with every bite, but nothing too intense as the umami flavor overpowers the spice. The indulgence of Spicy Korean BBQ brings so much to the plate.
GARLIC PARMESAN
What starts off tame and stays neutral as time goes on?
Hint: Wingstop Garlic Parmesan.
With a name as bold as its own, Wingstop lovers would think that Garlic Parmesan might be spicy and earthy and cheesy, but in reality, Garlic Parmesan is the equivalent of endlessly kicking a ball around and not getting a goal.
It sure does let the chicken shine. The garlic is there but it’s sort of a cautious whisper, and the parmesan is there but it clashes with what small amount of garlic we are given in the first place.
Garlic Parmesan is grandma’s version of enough spice: a flavor that’s mild, comforting and just right. Perfect for those who want to balance out the other flavors.
Out of Wingstop’s classic flavors, does one outshine the others? Vote below, NIU, and we will see what flavor will win the battle of the wings.
