Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups BBQ sauce can use your favorite brand, I like Sweet Baby Rays
- 1 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon mustard powder
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 3 pounds chicken wings can use drumettes, flats or wings. 3 Pounds is about 18-22 wings depending on the size.
Instructions
- Spray the crock pot generously with cooking spray. Add the BBQ sauce, honey, red pepper flakes, Worcestershire, mustard powder, and brown sugar together to the bottom of a crock pot. Mix the sauce well.
- Add the chicken to the crock pot. Stir well to coat all of the chicken pieces in sauce. Cover the crock pot and cook covered on low for 4 hours, or until 165 degrees when checked with a meat thermometer. Serve and enjoy!

Optional Broiling
- Turn on the broil setting on the oven. Cover a sheetpan with aluminum foil and spray lightly with cooking oil. Remove the chicken wings and place on the sheetpan with a little space in between each one. Use a silicone brush and brush extra sauce from the crock pot generously over the chicken wings.
- Place the chicken wings under the broiler to crisp up the outside a little, usually 1-3 minutes. Be careful to watch closely as we want them to crisp but not burn. Serve and enjoy!

Notes
- You can use a mix of bone in legs, wings, and drumsticks for this recipe, whatever you prefer.

- You can swap in regular mustard for the dried mustard, use 1 tablespoon of Dijon or yellow mustard for each teaspoon of dried mustard. I recommend using Dijon mustard for more flavor.
- Chicken is safe to eat when they reach a temperature inside of 165 degrees when using a meat thermometer. Be careful not to hit the bone with the thermometer when testing. When doubling the recipe, expect it to take four hours when cooked on low.
- I used a 6 quart slow cooker for this recipe.
- I usually plan on 4-6 wings per person. For parties where there is a lot of other food I'll plan 4 wings, and if serving for dinner I'll plan at least six wings per person. This recipe easily can be doubled or tripled, though if tripling I recommend using a larger crock pot.
