Blue Cheese Hot Wings Recipes

SLOW COOKER BBQ HOT WINGS WITH BLUE CHEESE DIP

Steps:

• Mix water and liquid smoke in the bottom of a large slow cooker. Add frozen wings and sprinkle with kosher salt. Cook on high for about 4 hours.
• Mix together all the ingredients for the blue cheese dip except for the blue cheese crumbles. Then gently stir in the blue cheese. (You can also blend them in if you don't like big pieces of cheese). Refrigerate for at least a couple of hours, the longer the better- it just gets more flavorful.
• Just before wings are done cooking, add all sauce ingredients to a small sauce pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer about 15 minutes.
• When wings are done cooking in the slow cooker, dip each wing in the sauce and place on a cookie sheet. Place in oven under the broiler on high for a couple of minutes, then dip each wing again and place on the cookie sheet again with the other side of the wing facing up. Place under the broiler again for a couple of minutes. Place wings on a serving plate and baste with the remaining sauce.
• Serve with blue cheese dip and celery.

Steps:

• Make the dip: Pulse the sour cream, blue cheese, mayonnaise, garlic, milk and lemon juice in a food processor until combined but still chunky. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Make the wings: Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large deep skillet over high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F. Set a rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Mix the flour and paprika in a shallow dish. Dredge the wings in the flour mixture to coat, tapping off the excess. Fry the wings in batches, turning as needed, until cooked through and deep golden brown, about 15 minutes. (Return the oil to 375 degrees F between batches.) Remove with tongs and transfer to the rack to drain.
• Meanwhile, combine the hot sauce, butter and honey in a medium pot over medium heat until the butter melts. Continue to cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Reserve one-quarter of the sauce for serving. Add the cooked wings to the pot and toss with the remaining sauce. Serve with the blue cheese dip and reserved sauce.
