This easy Crockpot Buffalo Chicken Dip is an appetizer that our family has been making for years and it's always a winner!! It's creamy, cheesy, and the perfect crowd pleaser!!

I love a good crockpot appetizer! There's nothing better than being able to prep a snack before guests start arriving. We have a really big family so once everyone arrives at my house for parties or dinners, it's nice to have something ready to dig into and not be in the kitchen prepping food.

How to make Buffalo Chicken Dip in the crock pot:

I like to use a rotisserie chicken for this dip. You'll need 4 cups of chicken meat. I use the white meat and the dark meat. If you don't want to use a rotisserie, you could also bake 3-4 chicken breast in the oven at 375 for about 25 minutes then shred those.

Once you've cut or shredded the chicken, you can add all of the remaining ingredients to your crock pot. (Make sure to save half a cup of the cheese to sprinkle on top of the dip when it's almost done.) Stir everything together to combine.

How long to cook buffalo chicken dip in a crock pot?

You'll want to cook everything on low for about 3-4 hours while stirring occasionally to make sure everything is warmed throughout.

Is buffalo chicken dip spicy?

Yes, and no. Traditionally, buffalo chicken dip is made with a spicy buffalo sauce and is pretty spicy (especially for wimps like me). If I'm making it for my husband and his friends, I make with with extra hot buffalo sauce. But if it's family coming over or a gathering with kids, I always make it with mild buffalo sauce so everyone can enjoy it.

What to serve with buffalo chicken dip:

We like to serve our crock pot buffalo chicken dip with tortilla chips and celery sticks. You could also use pretzel thins, crackers, or pita bread.

    2 Christmas's ago my nephew made this as one of our apps, I have tried several since then but none taste close to his, your recipe looks very similar so I am super excited to make this to see. It would be easier if he had kept his recipe but did not save it. Yours is the closest to his I have seen. Fingers crossed! Looks amazing.
