Crockpot BBQ Chicken Wings

• •3 lb Chicken wings (About 24 wings, separated at joints if desired)
• •2 tbsp Paprika
• •1 tbsp Garlic powder
• •1 tbsp Onion powder
• •1 tsp Salt
• •1 tsp Black pepper
• •1 cup BBQ sauce (Your favorite store-bought brand)

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. This is your dry rub.

2. 2

   Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the dry rub.

3. 3

   Place the seasoned chicken wings in a single layer in the crockpot. If you have too many wings to fit in a single layer, you can slightly overlap them.

4. 4

   Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours, or until the chicken is very tender and easily pulls away from the bone.

5. 5

   Preheat your oven to broil. Line a baking sheet with foil.

6. 6

   Remove the chicken wings from the crockpot and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

7. 7

   Brush the wings generously with your favorite BBQ sauce.

8. 8

   Broil for 3-5 minutes, or until the BBQ sauce is bubbly and caramelized, watching carefully to prevent burning. You may want to flip the wings halfway through and brush with more sauce.

9. 9

   Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds, if desired.

Chef's Tips

• 💡For extra crispy wings, you can place them under the broiler for a longer time, but be sure to keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
• 💡If you want a thicker BBQ sauce glaze, you can mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with a tablespoon of cold water and stir it into the BBQ sauce before brushing it on the wings.
• 💡These wings can be made ahead of time. After broiling, let them cool completely, then store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
