Spicy Jamaican Jerk Crockpot Wings

Jamaican Jerk inspired wings cooked in a slow cooker. These wings are crisped in the oven on a broiler setting to give you deep fried wing texture without the frying. And the flavor is to die for!

I love making chicken wings in the crock pot. My family loves it too. I make them all the time, and sometimes I get bored having BBQ Wings every time. But this time I was really feeling the jerk chicken vibe. I have a marinade recipe I love, and I thought I would give it a try. It was delicious on wings. I highly recommend it if you like a little kick.

How to Make CrockPot Wings

This recipe is so easy I find myself making it WAY too often.

Start by taking your wings (however many you want), I used about 4 lbs for my family because we LOVE wings and always have neighbors over for dinner, and I put them on a baking sheet lined with foil and with a cooling rack on top. This allows for some air flow around the wings.

Broil for 8-10 minutes per side.

Every oven is different, so watch your wings so you don’t burn them. The idea is to make the skin crispy.

Once you have broiled them they will be a little crispy on the outside. This is good. But they won’t be cooked through.

At this point I dumped about a cup of the sauce/marinade in the bottom of my crockpot, put my wings in, and dumped another cup of sauce over the top.

Stir it up to coat the wings well.

Cook on high for 2 hours. Or if you you want to eat sooner, skip that slow cooker and use this Oven Baked Chicken Wings method with the same marinade, or try Air Fryer Wings.

At this point you can serve, they should be nice and tender, meat falling off the bone, and the skin will be crisp from the broiling.

If you want you can pop them back in your broiler for another 4-6 minutes per side to crisp them up more. That is a matter of preference.

Just be careful not to burn them. They are Jamaican Jerk, so they will blacken a bit anyway, but keep an eye on them. My family likes them crispy, but I don’t love frying them, so this is the best way to get a “fried wing” texture without the oil!

Serve with your favorite sides. We had cheesey skillet potatoes or Oven Baked Steak Fries!

Jamaican Jerk Sauce

This is my go to recipe for marinade when I want a Jamaican flare to my food. However, you could skip the marinade all together and use a bottled version of Jamaican sauce.

One thing to keep in mind is you can adjust the heat of this sauce to your preference by either adding some serrano peppers to the mix or extra cayenne pepper. I love it with about half the cayenne listed in the recipe when I am serving a crowd or my kiddos.

When it is all blended up it isn’t the prettiest, but trust me when I say it tastes amazing. The cinnamon, the nutmeg, the onions, all combine to give you a fun island flavor with a little heat!
