Awesome Slow Cooker Buffalo Wings Recipe

These wings are fabulous but I recommend cutting way back on the cooking time. I do one hour in the crock pot on high and one hour on low then put them in the oven for 30 minutes. Friends tell me they are the best wings they have ever eaten!

After reading most of the reviews I made the following alterations to the recipe for an amazingly easy and delicious chicken wing: 1. Ingredients: Frank's Buffalo Wing Sauce, low sodium Worcestershire Sauce, unsalted butter and arrowroot 2. Cook time in slow cooker: 1 hr on high, 1 hr on low 3. After cooking complete: use slotted spoon to remove wings from slow cooker. Drain the sauce off the wings 4. Baking pans: lined with parchment paper (easy clean-up) 5. Cook time in oven: @400 for 30 minutes, turning after 15 minutes. Watch closely or you will burn them at this temp but worth it. The are wonderfully crispy! 6. Dipping Sauce: simmer juices from slow cooker thickened with arrowroot in sauce pan on stove Results: Fantastic!! This is the keeper recipe for wings. We like our wings extra crispy but juicy on the inside and this recipe delivers, with the above listed modifications. Family members said, no need to eat wings out anymore. Next time we are going to add garlic and grated parmesan to the cooking sauce. This is so easy.

My youngest of 7 daughters loves, loves wings. Although she prefers breaded, I made these using the kick butt comments to do 1hr/high - 1hr/low in slow cooker, then put on grill until skin got crispy. Took the juices from slow cooker recipe and cooked down to an incredibly awesome sauce by adding brown sugar, starch and a bit more garlic and a tiny bit of vinegar. Yes! Yes! Better than good. :)

The best recipe I've ever made. I've eaten chicken wings at quite a few places and never dared to make it at home. My husband said it was the best chicken wings he has ever eaten. I did however change a few things. 1. I browned the chicken wings on an cast iron or skillet or pan. Before I placed it in the slow cooker. 2. I followed the advice given by others. 1 hour and 15 mins on High, and 45 minutes on low. 3. Then I took the wings out, and placed them on a baking sheet and baked in my (preheated) oven. I have an electric fan oven with broil option on top. I turned on the fan + broil and on the recommended temp, and it turned out super crispy in 15 mins. Keep an eye on the wings while in the oven. 4. SAUCE CHANGE: I used a half buffalo sauce and half sweet baby rays sweet & spicy sauce. It gives a different kick if you do not like pure buffalo wing sauce. AMAZING

I used frozen wings. Started in the crockpot, but moved to stovetop. Stovetop took less time. Texas Pete extra mild sauce. Baked on parchment for 15 minutes each side. Boiled remaining sauce for 20 minutes, skimmed fat, tossed the wings when they were done and they were great!

Love it added another spice to make it more spicy and used drumsticks instead and it only took 2 hours all together. I have a nesco witch has high temp for cooking so it didn't take long so the first hour 15 min in the nesco then the rest in oven at 350. It was really spicy but that's how I like it I added a spice called garlic sriracha seasoning by weber then some chili powder. 1 TBS each or more depending on the spiceyness you want I added like 2 each then sprinkled the sriracha on top afterwards.

These wings were such a hit at The Superbowl Party! I did some modifications that may be helpful for you.... Cook time was MUCH different. 45 minutes on slow 45 minutes on high in the slow cooker, and 30 minutes in the oven at 475. I even broiled them the last few minutes. I also used much less Worcester Sauce (about 3/4 bottle), and added some cayenne pepper just to make them super spicy. In addition I used different spices. Marjoram and Oregano and that's it. I was told they were the perfect consistency! Crunchy on the outside moist on the inside.

These are the best slow cooker wings that I've found so far. I really like a classic wing, butter, Frank's, and some spices, and so this fit the bill. Three notes: 1) I think the cooking time is way off. Having made wings in the slow cooker before, I ignored it and did 3.5 hours on low using fresh wings. 2) They were way too salty. I will use unsalted butter next time. I questioned using salted butter but did it anyway since the recipe did not specify, and did not call for additional salt. The saltiness really took away from them, but I only docked the recipe a star because I think this would taste fantastic with unsalted butter. 3) I think a half hour on 400 was too long to be in the oven. The oven portion is just to brown them. I think next time, I'd opt for longer time in the slow cooker (probably around 4 hours on low), and then just a few minutes in the broiler to brown them up. They were good, but I felt like I could have accomplished the same thing with less juiciness-robbing oven time.

I've made this recipe at least a dozen times with the following changes: Crystal hot sauce instead of Frank's (I substituted Crystal originally and when I tried to use Frank's later it was almost inedibly salty, so I always use Crystal), crockpot cook time of 2 hours on medium. I use a mix of chicken wings, thighs, and legs and serve it for dinner with basmati rice and roasted broccolini; everyone loves it! My kids, husband, mom, and guests. The chicken is crispy and the buttery sauce is delicious for dipping the chicken and for seasoning the basmati. Thanks to the creator of this recipe for coming up with a staple menu item in our home!

If you want everything to fall off the bone do the 2hr high and 2 hour low followed by 30 min in the oven. Highly recommend!

Easy to make and tasty. I did about 3 hrs in the crock pot since i used frozen, not thawed wings. I also cooked the sauce with fresh diced onions, and used a garlic Italian blend instead of all the individual spices. They came out good, but not as spicy as i wanted, so next time I'll add a few extra items to make it spicier, like maybe a diced habanero.

However, I used larger wings and cooking times differ with the size of wings. While the chicken was cooked, it was a little soft than pretty much most people would like. I put them back in the oven for 30 more minutes so it was 1+1+30+30=3 hour cooking time.

Can’t believe it turned out so perfect.

My husband's favorite.

Awesome wings

All I can say is that I made this tonight exactly how the recipe said and my husband and me absolutely loved it . Definitely worth making and a keeper.

My fav and go to wing recipe for years now! One change I’ve incorporated is adding a little bit of flour (1 or 1.5 tablespoons) to the sauce to thicken it and ensure it sticks better to the wings.

GREAT Recipe!! Wings were perfect!

My husband loved them! Even though I reduced the oven time by 5 minutes, the wings were burnt in some spots. The next time I’ll only cook them for 20.

Delicious. After the slow cooker, I put them on the grill rather than in the oven. Give them about 5 min per side and they come out wonderfully.
