 My family always enjoys these savory slow-cooked wings! Be prepared to watch them disappear in a flash!
25 whole chicken wings (about 5 pounds)*
2-1/2 cups hot and spicy ketchup
2/3 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons honey
1/2 cup molasses
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 to 1 teaspoon Liquid Smoke (optional)
1. Cut chicken wings into three sections; discard wing tip sections. Place chicken wings in two greased 15-in.x10-in.x1-in. baking pans. Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees F for 30 minutes; drain. Turn wings; bake 20-25 minutes longer or until juices run clear.
2. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine the ketchup, vinegar, honey, molasses, salt, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder and chili powder. Add Liquid Smoke if desires. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes. Drain wings; place a third of them in a 5-qt. slow cooker. Top with about 1 cup sauce. Repeat layers twice. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours. Stir before serving. Makes about 4 dozen.
* Uncooked chicken wing sections (wingettes) may be substituted for whole chicken wings.
