Brine the wings in a bag with 1 tablespoon of salt, 3/4 cup of buttermilk, and black pepper for 3-4 hours.

Remove the wings from the brine and let them come to room temperature while the grill preheats.

Chop one bunch of cilantro and scallions for the salsa.

Juice 3 limes and mix with 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil and the chopped herbs to make the salsa.

Prepare the scallion ranch by mixing 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, 1/4 cup of buttermilk, and a big spoonful of the salsa, adding lime zest, salt, and pepper to taste.

Make the buffalo sauce by combining 2/3 cup of Frank's Red Hot, 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, and a pinch of sugar in a skillet and simmering.

Drain the wings and pat them dry to remove moisture.

Grease the grill grates with vegetable oil and preheat to about 400°F.

Place the wings on the grill and cook for about 20 minutes, turning occasionally until charred and cooked through.

Toss the cooked wings in the buffalo sauce until well coated and serve with scallion ranch and salsa.
