Notes
Be sure to cut your cauliflower into similar sized pieces so that they'll cook at the same rate.
I prefer Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce, but other varieties of hot sauce will also work.
This cauliflower is best when you serve it right out of the oven, as the coating will soften as the cauliflower sits.
