Ingredients

• 16  chicken wings (about 3 pounds)
• 1-1/2  cups bottled chili sauce
• 3  to 4 tablespoons bottled hot pepper sauce
• 1  recipe Blue Cheese Dip (see recipe below) or bottled ranch salad dressing

Directions

1. Cut off and discard wing tips. Cut each wing into 2 sections. Place chicken on the unheated rack of a broiler pan. Broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat about 10 minutes or until chicken is browned, turning once. Transfer chicken to a 3-1/2- or 4-quart crockery cooker. Combine chili sauce and hot pepper sauce; pour over chicken wings.

2. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 4 to 5 hours or on high-heat setting or 2 to 21/2 hours. Serve chicken wings with Blue Cheese Dip or ranch salad dressing. Makes 32 appetizers.
