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.

Baked Buffalo Wings

Everyone loves chicken wings and everyone loves Buffalo Wings. To me, this is the best way to make Buffalo Wings plus its a lot healthier. Instead of frying the chicken wings first it is completely cooked in the oven. It also has less sodium as well. You can always add more red pepper sauce to suit your needs of how hot you want it to be. Buffalo wings can be served with either Ranch Dressing or Blue Cheese Dressing. I like to eat mine just the way it is.
