Pizza Hut's wing sauce is made primarily of hot sauce (Frank's RedHot is the most common match), melted unsalted butter, white vinegar, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. The mild version has more butter and less cayenne, while the buffalo version is more hot-sauce-forward with less butter for extra heat.

How to make Pizza Hut Buffalo sauce?

To make Pizza Hut's buffalo sauce, combine ½ cup of Frank's RedHot Original Sauce with 2 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon of white vinegar, ½ teaspoon of garlic powder, and ½ teaspoon of cayenne pepper in a small saucepan. Stir over low heat until combined, then toss immediately with hot cooked wings. The less butter you use, the spicier the result.
