✔️ Fans of buffalo chicken wings will love this easy to make slow cooker recipe.

✔️ It is a great recipe to make for game day and keep warm in the slow cooker for guests to assemble on their own.

✔️ Leftovers make great grilled cheese sandwiches!

🥘 Ingredients

Boneless skinless chicken breasts, if chicken breasts are large, cut them into smaller pieces to allow the sauce to absorb into the meat while cooking.

Buffalo wing sauce, I love this brand.

Chunky blue cheese dressing, I love this brand with big chunks of blue cheese!

Optional sandwich toppings: Lettuce, tomato, onion

Burger buns or slider rolls, I prefer the slider rolls as I love smaller sandwiches. I think they are easier to handle as well.

Gorgonzola cheese crumbles, these are optional but are so delicious topping the sandwich!

Cooked chicken pieces with buffalo sauce.

🔪 Instructions

In a small bowl, using a hand whisk, mix together the wing sauce and blue cheese dressing. Pour the sauce mixture over top of the chicken and cook on low 6 to 8 hours.
