Sweet but Spicy Chicken Wings

Spicy chicken wings are cooked in the crockpot with honey and barbecue sauce, along with spicy seasonings.

Ingredients:

• 3 pounds chicken wings (16 wings)
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 1/2 cups any variety barbecue sauce
• 1/4 cup honey
• 2 teaspoons prepared mustard or spicy mustard
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• Tabasco to taste, optional

Preparation:

Rinse chicken wings; pat dry. Cut off and discard wing tips then cut each wing at the joint to make two sections. Sprinkle wing pieces with salt and pepper; place wings on a lightly oiled broiler pan. Broil about 4 inches from the heat for 10 minutes on each side, or until chicken wings are nicely browned. Transfer chicken wings to crockpot.

In a bowl, combine barbecue sauce, honey, spicy mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and Tabasco. Pour sauce over chicken wings. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours or on High 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Serve directly from slow cooker, keeping the temperature on LOW. Makes about 30 chicken wings.
