Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Chicken wings
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 cup Buffalo sauce
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- Ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing (optional for serving)
- Celery sticks (optional for serving)
- Carrot sticks (optional for serving)
Instructions
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the chicken wings and rub it in evenly to coat.
Place the seasoned chicken wings into the crock pot in an even layer.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the Buffalo sauce, unsalted butter, and honey. Stir until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Pour the Buffalo sauce mixture over the chicken wings in the crock pot, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 3 hours, or until the wings are tender.
Once cooked, carefully remove the wings from the crock pot. Place them on a baking sheet lined with foil and preheated under a broiler for 3-5 minutes to crisp up the skin, if desired.
Serve the wings hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing, celery sticks, and carrot sticks on the side, if desired.
