Blue Cheese Dip for Hot Wings – Fire Day Friday

The college football bowl season is gearing up and one of the frequent bowl game foods is chicken wings.  
Whether you grill them, bake them, or fry them, it’s almost obligatory to serve them with blue cheese or ranch dressing and celery sticks.  While it is tempting to just crack open a jar of bottled dressing, I like to have more of a thicker “dip” than a thin “dressing” like most bottled varieties.  It sticks better to the wings and celery sticks.
I grilled some wings last week and this is the blue cheese dip that I made as a condiment.
