Easy Slow Cooker Spicy Hot Wings Recipe
I don’t know about you, but I am a BIG fan of hot wings. I love them when they are fresh off of the grill and served on a platter, but since I do most of the cooking, that rarely happens. Ha! Instead, you will find this recipe for slow cooker spicy hot wings more often than any other hot wing recipe I make. In Louisiana we love all things HOT, and this is one of those HOT recipes. So grab yourself a glass of water and start cooking up this perfect game day treat.
Slow Cooker Spicy Hot Wings
Here is a quick list of everything you will need.
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp crushed garlic
- 2 – 4 pounds regular chicken wings
- cooking spray
- 1/2 cup Louisiana Hot sauce
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
Yes, these are called SPICY hot wings for a reason. I like adding the brown sugar to give them a little sweeter taste, but it is by far a delicious spicy recipe more than anything.
To get started, mix the brown sugar, crushed garlic, hot sauce, and cayenne pepper into a medium mixing bowl. Mix well and then set aside.

Take the cooking spray and spray the entire inside portion of the slow cooker AND also the wings. (Spraying the wings before you grill, bake, or cook – the chicken keeps the flavor and the spray makes them super juicy. TRUST ME.)
Take the wings and add them into the mixing bowl with your spices and toss to get a good even coat over the wings.

I’m not much of a spice person, but I have family members who are, so I’m pinning. I never would have thought to take them out and put them under the broiler — that’s the secret to a crisp wing!! Sadly, I’d probably just sit and eat the blue cheese dressing with a spoon LOL!
Haha! You and me both Seana! 🙂
I can’t do spicy but Cassidy is obsessed with hot wings so I put this on Pinterest just for him.
Yum, though. They certainly look delicious.
Thank you for the recipe! The wings look very tasty, and I love the spice. You may want to add 4 hours to the total cooking time for using the slow cooker.
We love wings, so I will definitely have to try it soon.
