Why Make Crock Pot Chicken Wings

  • Easy recipe with simple ingredients: This recipe is mostly dump-and-go and uses only 6 simple ingredients.
  • Full of flavor without covering the wings in a sauce: These wings are tender and delicious without sauce.
  • Perfect for football season and game day: by slow cooking your chicken wings, you can make more at a time, making these the perfect Game Day snack for a crowd.

Ingredients Needed

  • Fresh chicken wings: Raw, cut into drums and flats or drums-only
  • Bragg’s herb seasoning: I prefer this spice mix because it contains 24 herbs and seasoning and is widely available at the grocery store. You can also substitute all the seasonings in this recipe for your favorite dry rub like my chicken rub recipe.
  • Natural Ancient Sea Salt, optional
  • Smoked Paprika
  • Garlic Powder
  • Onion Powder

Be sure to check out the recipe card at the end of the post for the exact ingredient amounts and full instructions.

How To Make Slow Cooker Chicken Wings Without Sauce

  1. Pat the wings dry with a paper towel. Add the wings to the crockpot.
  2. Mix the spices in a small bowl. 
  3. Sprinkle on the wings and use tongs to mix to coat. Cover and slow cook on high for 2 hours
  4. Preheat the broiler for 15 minutes. Remove the wings from the crockpot and add them to a broiler-safe baking sheet with a rack in a single layer. If you don’t have a rack, no worries. I add the wings with the most browned side up to a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil. Broil for 5 minutes on high to char the wings and crisp the skin.
4 easy steps to cook Slow Cooker Chicken Wings from seasoning the chicken wings, adding the wings to a wire rack, and broiling them

Recipe Tips & FAQs

  • No extra oil or chicken broth is needed since the fat from the wings will keep them tender as they slow cook.
  • Broil the wings for crispy skin you can flip them halfway through to get even browning on both sides. For best results, preheat your broiler.
  • If you have whole wings, you can use this process to cut chicken wings.

Wing Dips

Dip these crockpot wings in:

  • Greek Yogurt Ranch Dip (Easy Homemade Recipe)
  • Ranch Dressing Recipe
  • Best Blue Cheese Dressing

Wing Sauces

If you want variety, you can add your favorite wing sauce to these crockpot chicken wings after cooking or before broiling. Some of my favorites are:

  • barbecue sauce
  • homemade buffalo sauce from my air fryer buffalo wings
  • garlic parmesan sauce from my garlic parmesan chicken wings

Storage & Leftovers

Store your leftover wings in an airtight container for 3-4 days.

Is it OK to put raw chicken in slow cooker?

Yes. My slow cooker chicken wings recipe uses raw chicken. I recommend that you thaw frozen chicken wings if you have them.

How long can chicken be slow-cooked for?

You can slow cook chicken on high for 2-3 hours or on low for 5-6 hours.

Should chicken be on high or low in slow cooker?

It depends on how much time you have and your personal preferences. Cooking on high takes less time but can dry out the chicken if you forget. On the other hand, cooking on low takes longer but preserves moisture and more flavor.
