Garnet and Gold Buffalo Cauliflower Wings

My single greatest college memory at Florida State University was when our football team won the National Championship in 2013 – surrounded by friends, knuckles white with anticipation, and that indescribable moment when Tallahassee erupted in celebration! We poured out of our dorm rooms and flooded the campus, cheering and screaming and laughing with pride because in that moment ALL Seminoles were winners. I love football, and I love food.

Hands down, my favorite tailgating food was these chicken wings lathered in a mind-blowing combination of buffalo sauce and Carolina gold bbq sauce. They were called Garnet and Gold wings in honor of the Seminole’s colors and to reflect the two sauces. They were incredible, but they were also greasy and didn’t leave my stomach feeling like much of a winner. I had to justify the stomach ache every time.
