Sweet, smoky, and built with serious heat, this butter sauce turns chicken wings or fresh-fried potato chips into something worth talking about. Spiceology Smoky Honey Habanero anchors the whole thing — layering honey, habanero, and smoked depth into a glossy, pourable sauce that coats everything it touches. Make a batch and keep it on standby.
