How to Cook Chicken Wings in a Slow Cooker

Slow-cooker chicken wings are a family-friendly recipe that is convenient for the cook who is short on time. Toss the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning and set the timer, and you'll come home to dinner waiting for you. Plus, the slow cooker allows you to experiment with new sauces and flavors for the wings, meaning no one will get tired of this easy recipe. Offer slow-cooker chicken wings after a busy day or at your next party.

Things You'll Need

  • Chicken wings
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 2 cups honey
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • Salt
  • Bowl
  • Pepper

Instructions

  1. Cut the tips off of each chicken wing using kitchen shears. Throw away the tips. Alton Brown of the Food Network recommends separating the wings at the joint using your shears, which will expedite cooking and ensure that the slow cooker cooks the chicken thoroughly and evenly. (see Reference 1)

  2. Wash and dry the raw chicken wings, and place them in the slow cooker.

  3. Mix the chicken wing sauce in a separate bowl. For example, a classic chicken wing sauce recipe from What's Cooking America includes soy sauce, honey, ketchup, garlic and vegetable oil. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. Set the slow cooker to low heat.

  5. Pour the sauce of your choice over the chicken wings. Mix the chicken and sauce, making sure that you thoroughly cover the wings in the sauce.

  6. Allow the chicken wings to cook in the slow cooker for four to six hours. Times vary depending on how quickly your slow cooker cooks, so base your time on standard cooking times for other recipes.
