Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 pounds chicken wings fresh or frozen
- 1 cup hot sauce I used Franks
- ½ cup melted butter
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper. Mix.
- Place the chicken wings into the slow cooker and sprinkle with seasoning mix, stirring to get the winds coated evenly on all sides.
- Place the lid on, and cook on high for 4-5 hours, or low for 6-7 hours.
- Once done, preheat the oven to 425˚F, remove the wings from the crockpot and place in a large bowl.Tip: The drier the wings are the better the sauce will stick, so try to remove as much of the liquid as possible when transferring them into the bowl.
- Whisk together the hot sauce and melted butter until combined, then pour them over the wings and toss them to coat.
- Lay the wings on a baking sheet and cook in the oven on the top rack for 15-18 minutes. Then, brush with additional sauce from the bowl you mixed the wings in and serve hot.
