I am starting to become a big, huge fan of my KitchenAid slow cooker. It took me awhile to appreciate the time saving value it could have in my life, but now that I know, I’m sold.
You can make everything, practically, in a slow cooker! Breakfast, lunch and dinner… and even a snack in between if you had enough slow cookers and cabinet space to keep them all going at the same time.
I’ve made full size chicken legs in the slow cooker before, and they turned out great. Ugly, but great. So, I decided I’d try to make some chicken wings in the slow cooker and with the use of the Reynolds Slow Cooker Liners, the chicken wings were perfection. They didn’t stick to the sides, they weren’t messy to clean up and they were low maintenance and delicious.
So now that I’m a HUGE slow cooker fan, tell me… what’s your favorite thing to cook in the slow cooker? I’d love to know!

I first tried the slow cooker liners this year and LOVE them! However, I realized that I do need to get a larger slow cooker than the one I have… it worked great for just 2 people.
Love the flavors in this recipe.
Umm…there are slow cooker liners? My husband thanks you in advance. He is the dishes man around here!! Favorite slow cooker dish lately? Applesauce! http://thelemonbowl.com/2012/10/slow-cooker-applesauce.html We add it to oatmeal, smoothies, you name it!
What’s not to love about wings in a slow cooker? We made Osso Bucco over the weekend in the slow cooker and it was beyond crazy good and fall off the bone tender.
I fiiiinally have my own slow cooker, so I can make things like this! I am so so excited to get the ball rolling on it 🙂
Ooooh this looks so good. LOVE using my slow cooker too!!!
Oh my….you had me at chicken wings! These sound so good! Never thought to make them in the slow cooker!
These look amazing, I love the flavors, Kristen!
Those Chicken wings look delicious! Amazing photographs!
We don’t use a slow cooker but have become HUGE fans of slow braising in the oven, which is similar to the slow cooker approach. I have not thought of doing wings before but now I am inspired to try that. Cannot wait!
Been reading your blog now for a while. Now that I’m a mom of a precious 6 wk old – I am definitely looking for using my slow cooker more.
I didn’t have 5 spice in the unpacked spices (we just moved from NC to AR) so I used som jerk seasoning. Am serving this tonight after a trip to the mall! Thanks for the idea for some protein!
Does anyone have the nutritional facts for these?
