    If you're worried about excess liquid or sodium in this recipe try this: 1) instead of cooking chicken in wing sauce, cover in water with a a few tsp of vinegar in crockpot, 2) dump water, shred chicken and add wing sauce or hotsauce+butter or oil to taste. I serve with romaine as a wrap. Delish. - 2/1/10

    We love hot wings, but hate the calories. My husband and I loved this recipe. It was like eating hot wings, but not feeling guilty later. - 1/18/10

    I used Ashanti's wing sauce, which has a lot less calories and sodium than other brands. It was delish! We made wraps with La Tortilla Factory tortillas, 1 tbsp Marie's Light Blue Cheese dressing, and spinach. Yum! - 10/3/09

    This is my boyfriends favorite recipe! I shred the chicken and eat it on flour tortillas with lettuce and fat free ranch. Easy to make and really tasty if you like spicy food. I use Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Sauce. The sauce you use will make all the difference with this recipe. - 4/3/11

    Thanks for the recipe. I'm trying right now. I put about 30 oz. of frozen ckn. in with 1 T ranch powder and 1 C hot sauce on top. I'll see how it turns out. I usually put some 1/3 less fat cream cheese in afterwards. Man, my mouth is watering as I type. I'll let you know! - 9/25/12

    i'm going to try this... i'd like to eat it "stuffed" into a baked potato and sprinkle a tablespoon on bleu cheese on top.
    and it does sound amazing, but i might cook the chicken and then add the seasonings to taste to save on sodium.. thanks for the great idea - 6/21/11

    I thought this was good. I didn't shred it after it was done and put it back in the pot like it said. I instead took it out, shredded and then used the remaining liquid just as drizzle. I'll make it again and have leftovers for lunch! - 4/6/10

    First things first: Delish! Second: I used a local sauce called Syberg's. Lower in sodium than Frank's, et. al. I might look for something hotter next time though. I used 3 lbs of chicken, and had 60oz of cooked chicken. Enough for 15 4oz services at 150cal, and 621mg of sodium per serving. Not bad! - 6/23/12

    I didn't care for this at all and threw out all the leftovers after a few days of no one eating off of them. It may have been the low sodium sauce I used so I will try it one more time using a regular sauce. - 12/5/11

    I have this (without butter) in the crockpot today. For those worried about the sodium -- yes, it is high. BUT, you are not really eating ALL of the sauce (source of the sodium) -- most stays in crockpot. Search for a sauce with low sodium or do as others suggested and use less. - 9/14/11

    This was such a good recipe! My whole family loved it. I used a low carb whole wheat tortilla to put it in(45 c.) and my children ate it on little rolls. I added a little lite blue cheese dressing to crock pot as well. - 2/3/11

    Made this for my husband and I and we loved it!! I did use the bottled dressing instead of the dry mix and it still turned out great. A little to spicy for the kids, but the adults loved it! Thanks for this recipe - 10/12/10

    AWESOME! I LOVED this recipe. My husband loved it too, and I took leftovers to work and my co-workers loved it. We ate it as open face sandwiches with blue cheese on top, and had celery for a side. - 9/30/10
