Description

Crockpot Carolina Gold Bbq Chicken Thighs are a simple yet flavorful meal with tender chicken, zesty mustard, and sweet honey. Perfect for quick dinners, this dish brings comfort and taste to the table with minimal effort.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • ¾ cup yellow mustard
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken thighs evenly on both sides.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the thighs skin-side down until the skin is golden and crisped up.
  3. Transfer the chicken to the slow cooker, placing it skin-side up.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, honey, brown sugar, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth.
  5. Pour the sauce around the chicken rather than directly over the skin.
  6. Cover and cook on LOW for 5–6 hours, until the chicken is tender.
  7. During the last 30 minutes, uncover the slow cooker to let the sauce thicken slightly.

Notes

For added flavor, let the chicken thighs marinate in the seasoning for an hour before cooking.
Serve with your choice of sides like coleslaw or cornbread for a complete meal.
