Slow Cooker Honey Mustard Picnic Chicken

Ingredients

3 to 4 lbs. chicken drumsticks, drumettes, or wings

Salt & Pepper Tableside Seasoning, to season

1/2 cup spicy brown mustard 1/2 cup honey 1/4 cup dark brown sugar

4 to 5 Tbsp. Brown Mustard & Honey Rub

1 Tbsp. Crushed Aleppo Chiles*

1 Tbsp. corn starch

Directions

Step 1 Generously sprinkle chicken pieces with Salt & Pepper Tableside Seasoning. Place chicken and all remaining ingredients in a slow cooker.

Step 2 Use a spatula (or your hands) to toss and coat all chicken pieces with sauce. Set slow cooker to low and cook for 3 to 4 hours. Chicken pieces should be very tender but not completely falling off the bone.

Step 3 Remove chicken pieces from slow cooker with tongs and arrange on a large, foil-lined baking sheet.

Step 4 Preheat broiler. Transfer remaining liquid from slow cooker to a saucepan and simmer over medium heat, stirring, to reduce and thicken to desired consistency.

Step 5 Meanwhile, finish chicken pieces under the broiler for about 5 min., turning a couple of times, so the skin becomes slightly charred. Toss broiled chicken pieces with sauce just before serving and/or serve sauce on the side.

Recipe Notes

*For a little less heat, use 1 tsp. Aleppo chiles instead of 1 Tbsp.
