Had a bit of a soupy, greasy mess, but the wings were a hit any way. I will broil them longer next time and perhaps cut as much visible fat from the skin before broiling as possible. Otherwise the wings and sauce had great flavor.

The wings do come out just like pictured. The secret to prevent the soupy greasy sauce is to broil the wings until they are very crispy golden brown and drain the grease out of them during the broiling process--this may take at least 10 minutes per side so the skin is not gummy. Then pat the wings with a paper towel to remove excess grease prior to placing them in the slow cooker. Also, the wings only need about 2 3/4 hours to cook so that the meat is extremely tender but stays on the bone until you eat them.

I had a similar problem with the sauce being soupy and greasy. They tasted good and when I made them in the oven in the past they were good. I may try them again.

Y-U-M!In my home we eat a large dinner at noon on Sunday's so I am always in search of appetizer type recipes for "snack" on Sunday evenings. This, by far, is the best chicken wing recipe I have ever tried, and believe me I have tried tons. It is pleasing to both children and adults, very simple and easy to assemble and you don't have to run to the store for any of the ingredients! Most definitely a keeper!!!

I made this for a pool/potluck party this weekend. The wings were gone in a flash.

I made these when we had people over for a football game and they got eaten up...everyone loved them..esp the guys! I am making them again today...I think Ill add more horseradish to make them a bit spicier. And I had them in the crock pot for almost 3 hours...they were good..they just fell off the bone. So if you want it more like wing...I would say more like 2-2.5 hrs is good. These are a crowd pleaser!

I was excited to try this recipe as it had wonderful reviews. However, I ended up with a greasy, watery mess at the end of the 3 hours. Nothing like the picture! Triple checked the ingredients and directions and I am sure I followed instructions correctly...

trying to cut down on the fat of the skin on the wings, I used chicken breasts cut in strips, went over well and I used maple syurp instead of brown sugar. Empty crock pot at the end of the party!

This sounds similar to a family bbq sauce recipe, except we use maple syrup (the real stuff) instead of brown sugar, its delicious!

This is an excellent appetizer. I have made it a number of times and it is always a hit.

Excellent wings. Great to make for a party because they finish cooking in the crockpot. No greasy chicken to deal with as guests arrive.

To make it quick I boiled the chicken first then tossed it in the oven while I got ready for a pot luck. It is a life saver.JUdac

Sweet & Tangy - that's about the size of it! I had to use apple cider vinegar instead of red wine vinegar, and I had to sub the dijon for spicy brown mustard. The sauce was still tasty!
