Instructions
**If you are using frozen wings, please make sure they are COMPLETELY thawed and dry.

- Cook on HIGH for 2 – 2 1/2 hours for 2.5 lbs of wings, up to 3 hours for 4 lbs.
HONEY BUFFALO STICKY SAUCE:
- Remove the wings from the slow cooker and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Scoop out 1 cup of the remaining sauce from the slow cooker and pour into a small saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup Buffalo sauce.
- Remove a few tablespoons of the sauce from the saucepan and place in a small bowl. Add 2 Tablespoons of Organic Cornstarch or Arrowroot and whisk until there are no lumps. Pour this into the saucepan and whisk to combine.  Cook for approx. 4-5 minutes or until the sauce thickens.
TO BROWN THE WINGS:
- Turn on the broiler of your oven and brush the wings with the sauce and put on the top rack to brown.
- Broil them for 2-4 min or until caramelized. Turn the wings over, brush with more buffalo sauce and repeat on the other side.
- Place the wings on your favorite plate alongside some Ranch or Blue Cheese dressing and some carrot and celery sticks.
