With football season here, it’s time to be disappointed with who you drafted for your fantasy football team and eat some grub while watching a game. And Popeyes is offering something new to drown your sorrows of having a quarterback who scores negative fantasy football points \u2014 Sweet’ N Smokey Chipotle Wings.<\/p>\n
According to Popeyes, the new menu item is available with bone-in or boneless wings, which are tossed in a sauce with a blend of smokey chipotle and guajillo peppers with a sweet and bold BBQ base that has a hint of honey for some sweetness that balances out the heat. I ended up getting a six-piece boneless wings order.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Tiny chipotle pieces are floating in the reddish sauce, and its smell instantly pops barbecue sauce into my head. Like I’ve found with previous Popeyes wings orders, I have to drag the pieces through the sauce dregs at the bottom of the container to coat them properly. Much like its scent, its taste brings a sweet, smokey, and spicy barbecue sauce to mind, which is a bit disappointing because, with its name, I expected a flavor that wasn’t barbecue-like.<\/p>\n
Yes, I know what I wrote in the description above, so I shouldn’t be surprised, but I only found out it had a barbecue base after some digging in the Popeyes app while typing this review. I will admit that Sweet ‘N Smokey Chipotle would be less confusing than calling it Sweet’ N Smokey BBQ, which might be confused for the Honey BBQ and Sweet’ N Spicy sauces.<\/p>\n
There’s a kick with the viscous goo, so if you’re heat adverse, you might not like it. The honey’s sweetness definitely helps cut through the spiciness. But it’s a mild burn that, for me, doesn’t require any cool liquids or me running to the cashier at Popeyes to order a lemonade with an urgency similar to asking for a restroom lock code with a toddler who says, “I need to go to the bathroom.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Beyond the sauce, the chicken itself was what I expected from the chicken chain \u2014 a very crispy exterior, tender meaty inside, and those Cajun spices that aren’t noticeable thanks to the sweet and spicy coating.<\/p>\n
Popeyes Sweet ‘N Smokey Chipotle Wings would be a great addition to your game day spread, and I wouldn’t hesitate to order them again if I want a bit more of a kick than what the chain’s Honey BBQ Wings provide. They’re definitely not as disappointing as a quarterback who throws for four interceptions, has two fumbles, and zero touchdowns.<\/p>\n
