Ingredients

Scale

  • 3 lbs chicken wings
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce, divided

Rub Ingredients:

  • 2 tsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • ⅛ tsp ground oregano

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Rub

In a small bowl, mix together all the rub ingredients. Make sure to break up any clumps in the brown sugar to ensure an even coating on the chicken wings.

Step 2: Season the Chicken Wings

Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. This step is essential for the rub to adhere well. Season the raw chicken wings with the rub on both sides, massaging it into the skin for maximum flavor.

Step 3: Slow-Cook the Wings

Spray the bottom and sides of a crock pot with nonstick cooking spray. Place the seasoned chicken wings in the bottom. Pour ½ cup of BBQ sauce over the wings and toss to ensure they are fully coated. Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 3-4 hours or high for 1-2 hours, until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.

Step 4: Broil for a Crispy Finish

Once the wings are fully cooked, preheat your oven to the broil setting. Place the wings on a wire rack set over a lined baking sheet. Brush with the remaining ½ cup of BBQ sauce. Broil on high for 2-3 minutes until the sauce caramelizes, flipping halfway if desired.

Equipment

Notes

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh garlic and onion can elevate the flavors in the rub if you prefer more intense aromas.
  • Get Creative with Sauces: Swap the BBQ sauce for buffalo sauce, honey mustard, or even teriyaki for a twist on the classic wings.
  • Marinate Overnight: If you have time, let the wings marinate overnight with the rub for an even deeper flavor.
