Reynolds Kitchens® Tips
Reynolds Kitchens Tip
If you're using a 3-8 quart round or oval slow cooker, use the regular size Reynolds Kitchens® Slow Cooker Liner and the recipe below as-is. If you're using a 1-3 quart round or oval slow cooker, use the small size Reynolds Kitchens® Slow Cooker Liner and use half of each ingredient.
Ingredients
Spice Rub
- Reynolds Kitchens® Slow Cooker Liners
- 4 pounds chicken wings or wingettes, patted dry
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 teaspoons seasoned salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Honey BBQ Sauce
- 3/4 cup favorite BBQ sauce
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch, saved for the end of the recipe
Directions
Step 1
Line your slow cooker with a Reynolds Kitchens® Slow Cooker Liner.
Step 2
Stir together the spice ingredients in a large bowl. Add the wings and toss to fully combine.
Step 3
Add the rubbed wings to the slow cooker.
Step 4
Using the same bowl, stir together all of the sauce ingredients except the cornstarch. Pour the sauce over the wings and toss.
Step 5
Cook on high for 2 hours, or on low for 3 to 4 hours, until the wings reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
Step 6
Remove the wings from the slow cooker (leaving the sauce) and place in a large bowl. Stir the cornstarch into 2 tablespoons cold water, and then add to the sauce mixture inside the slow cooker. Stir to combine.
Step 7
Cook the sauce on high for 10 more minutes. Pour the thickened sauce over the wings and toss to coat.
