Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 lbs. chicken wings
1 ½ Sticks salted butter ((12 TBS))
12 oz. Frank's Hot Sauce ((1.5 Cups))
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 Tablespoon honey
½ teaspoon garlic powder
Celery Sticks
Carrots Sticks
Blue Cheese Dressing (see notes)

Steps:

  • Pat the buffalo wings completely dry and add them to the Crock Pot.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan and remove from heat. Whisk in hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, honey, and garlic powder. Set ½ cup aside and add the rest to the slow cooker. Stir to combine with the chicken wings.
  • Cook on high for 2 hours or on low for 3-4. Don't cook longer or they will begin to fall apart. They are done when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
  • Note: The sauce will thin out as the chicken cooks. We'll be brushing the wings with reserved sauce which will be nice and thick.
  • Crisp them in the Oven: (See notes for air fryer method)
  • Use kitchen tongs to remove the wings and set them on a foil-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with buffalo sauce. Pro Tip: Place cooling racks on top of the baking sheet and place the wings on top. The extra air flow will make the wings crispier.
  • Preheat oven to a low broil, 450 degrees. Add the wings and cook for 10 minutes, until the top begins to brown.
  • Remove from the oven and brush with more Buffalo sauce. Broil for 8-10 more minutes or until crisped and slightly browned.
  • Serve with blue cheese dressing, carrot sticks, and celery!

I love traditional "buffalo" wings, but like to try new ways to make them. I found this recipe on Southernfoods.about.com (supposedly one of Zaar's competitors but not in my view). I screened the wing recipes on Zaar's site but didn't find any duplicates. I know you'll like the simplicity and taste of this wing variation as much as we did.
