Welcome to part 2 of our Harry Potter Halloween Party! Last Friday we kicked our party off with our Pretzel-Rod “Wands.” Today, we thought we would share with you something a little more substantial. If you’re going to be grinding through some serious Harry Potter viewing, you’re going to need something to fill you up. Inspired the dragon that gave Viktor Krum so much trouble, these spicy little devils aim to please. If spice isn’t your thing, feel free to omit the sriracha, but that wouldn’t be as much fun. You can make an extra large batch and keep them in the crock pot on warm all day long.

Can these be made in a slow cooker?
Hi Tori,
I’m not sure that the sauce would have a chance to thicken properly if you made this entirely in a slow cooker. However, you can certainly make the sauce and then transfer it to a warm slow cooker.
Thanks!
