Are You Really Serving That Dull Slow Cooker Recipe On Game Day?

Soup is just a way of screwing you out of a meal. — Jay Leno

Oh, for heaven’s sake! Are you seriously considering serving up these dull, uninspired slow cooker recipes on game day? Your guests deserve better than that! Let me rescue you from the clutches of culinary mediocrity and guide you toward a recipe that will actually impress your guests and make them feel like they’re at a real game day celebration.

Let’s start with a recipe that will blow everyone’s socks off — my signature Spicy Honey Garlic Chicken Wings. This recipe will have your guests begging for more and raving about your cooking skills for weeks to come. And don’t you dare even think about serving this without a wine pairing! I’d recommend a crisp and refreshing Sauvignon Blanc from Kim Crawford, as its lively flavors will perfectly complement the bold and spicy notes of the chicken wings.

Ingredients:

• 3 lbs chicken wings
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp red pepper flakes
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, mix together the honey, soy sauce, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
2. Place the chicken wings in a single layer in the slow cooker and pour the honey-garlic sauce over them.
3. Cook on low for 4–5 hours until the wings are tender and the sauce has thickened, stirring occasionally to coat the wings.
4. Once cooked, transfer the wings to a baking sheet and broil for 2–3 minutes to caramelize and crisp up the skin.
5. Serve the wings hot, garnished with sliced green onions.

Now, that’s a recipe worthy of game day! And don’t forget to have that Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc on hand. Your guests will thank you for it.
