B.A.’s Ghost Pepper Wings
Sweet. Spicy. Legendary.
These wings are not for the faint of heart—but they are for flavor lovers. Our B.A.’s Ghost Pepper Wings are seasoned to perfection, fried crisp, and tossed in our signature pineapple habanero ghost pepper sauce—a bold blend of heat and sweet that hits in waves. The habanero brings the fire. The pineapple adds a silky balance of sweetness. And the ghost pepper? It lingers just long enough to remind you who’s boss.
This fiery flavor is more than just a wing—it’s a tribute. A nod to B.A. Watson, who purchased this very property in 1940 and transformed what was once Louisville’s original zoo into one of the city’s first and most iconic beer gardens: Colonial Gardens, nestled right here in the heart of the South End. Now, we honor that legacy at The B.A. Colonial with wings that are just as unforgettable as the man himself.
