1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, ground ginger, and black pepper.

3. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until wings are tender and cooked through.
