Notes
- Make sure you use a wing sauce, not just straight Buffalo hot sauce!
- Go easy on the wing sauce if your family doesn't love it spicy. If you end up with Sloppy Joes that are too spicy, stir in some yogurt or sour cream to cool it down.
- You can substitute the honey for 2 tablespoons of brown sugar; you just need some sweetness.
- This recipe is also great with ground turkey.
