Even though I had read about the ingredients on Reddit, I enjoy experimenting with recipes. So, I got a hold of the original sauce from Dave’s Hot Chicken and kept tasting it while making my own version. Each time I added an ingredient, I tasted the sauce to make sure it was just right. Finally, I recreated the sauce almost perfectly. I was thrilled, and I won the challenge against my friends. Now, I get a free meal at Dave’s Hot Chicken, all without spending any money.
