Dredge thoroughly in the dry batter, pressing to adhere. For extra crunch, dip back in wet batter and dredge again. 7 Fry for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F. 8 Rest on a wire rack for 2 minutes. 9 In a small saucepan over low heat, combine softened cream cheese, Frank's RedHot sauce, heavy cream, and butter. 10 Stir constantly until the cream cheese is melted and smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Do not allow to boil. 11 Add minced garlic and stir until combined. 12 Season with salt. Keep warm on low heat, stirring occasionally until ready to drizzle. 13 In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, sliced celery, carrots, and red onions. 14 In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Frank's RedHot, sugar, apple cider vinegar, and celery seed. 15 Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly. 16 Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving. 17 In a skillet over medium heat, cook the diced bacon until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. 18 Remove half the bacon fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the pan. 19 Add diced onion and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. 20 Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. 21 Stir in Frank's RedHot sauce, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. 22 Reduce heat to low and simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thick and jammy. 23 Season with salt. Let cool slightly — it will thicken as it cools. 24 In a small bowl, combine softened cream cheese, fresh goat cheese, Frank's RedHot, and butter. 25 Mix until smooth and well blended, about 1-2 minutes. 26 Stir in minced garlic. 27 Season with salt and pepper. Spread on the bottom bun before assembling. 28 Butter both halves of the bun and toast on a griddle or skillet until golden, about 2 minutes. 29 Spread Buffalo Cream Cheese Goat Cheese Spread on the bottom bun. 30 Spoon a generous layer of Buffalo Bacon Jam on top of the spread. 31 Place the fried chicken on top. 32 Drizzle Buffalo Cream Cheese Drizzle over the chicken. 33 Pile on Buffalo Celery Slaw. 34 Add crispy bacon strips, a handful of corn chips, and sliced green onions. 35 Place the top bun and serve immediately.
