Saucy Crock Pot Chicken Thighs (Aimee)

"Jenn this recipe is awesome! We used thighs and drumsticks and took off the skin first. I would omit the hot sauce and we used trader joes bbq, which is yummy. Kids loved it. We had with mushroom and herb risotto." - Aimee

1/2 (teaspoon) salt 
1/4 (teaspoon) black pepper 
1 1/2 (cup) barbecue sauce 
1/2 (cup) honey 
2 (teaspoon) prepared mustard 
2 (teaspoon) Worcestershire sauce 
1/8 (teaspoon) hot pepper sauce
