While the epic mess I made of dinner tonight was most likely a bit my fault, I've decided to place all of the blame solely on Pinterest. Most slow cooker recipes take just a few hours instead of the required 8 I need to work but after finding one for sweet and spicy chicken wings, I was feeling pretty excited and on the ball. Things were good when I got home to a yummy smelling kitchen. They continued to be good even when taking them out, they proceeded to fall off the bone a bit. It means they were going to be tender, which is perfect. Things began to be not so good after throwing them in the broiler for 4 minutes as opposed to the required 10. As you can see from exhibit A below, it was an epic fail of monumental proportions that required a trip to Pizza Hut since dinner was inedible. Always great when that happens...
Big Miss
At least the Pinterest crafty win a few hours later made up for it a bit. But those crock pot recipes better watch their backs. Depriving me of dinner is no way to make me happy...
Could you have eaten them without even bothering putting them in the broiler? But I guess the point of the broiler was to get the skin crispy. I have a Crockpot that has a timer on it so I can leave it on while I go to work and it will turn to a "keep warm" setting once the timer goes off. Sorry these didn't work out for you. :-(
