Notes
Sweeten the sauce with grape or cranberry jelly, or brown sugar (I’m giving you both recipes in the recipe card below). Granulated sugar is not recommended.
I like to use a high-quality honey barbecue sauce for the best flavor.
If you like a bit of heat, add a splash of hot chili sauce (like Frank’s hot sauce), or use sweet and spicy barbecue sauce instead of honey barbecue.
Use 3-4 quart slow cooker, or larger.
Servethem to your guests straight from the slow cooker, just provide them with a serving spoon and some clean picks so that they can help themselves! Or just serve in an appetizer bowl.
Storeleftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge.
Freezein a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
Reheatin the microwave until warmed through.
