How to make Crock Pot Honey BBQ Buffalo Chicken Wings

Making Honey BBQ Buffalo Chicken Wings in the crock pot is pretty easy.

Like most crock pot recipes, chicken wings are pretty much a dump and go kind of recipe.

One of the tricks though is to not overfill the crock pot with so much bbq sauce that the chicken wings are completely submerged in the honey bbq buffalo sauce.

Don't get me wrong crock pot chicken wings made right will be tender.

The chicken wings made the wrong way and the wings will literally fall apart when you serve them.

That's not my idea of a fun time when I am trying to eat chicken wings.

I want tender chicken wings but I don't want them falling apart making a big mess.
