Method
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, eggs, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Using about 1 tablespoon of the chicken mixture, lightly flatten out into a disk and add a piece of blue cheese (about 1/2 inch piece.) Close the chicken around the cheese and roll into a ball. Cheese should be completely encased by the chicken so it will not leak through into the sauce while cooking.
Step 3
Repeat the chicken, cheese, rolling process until all the chicken is used.
Step 4
In a crock pot, add 1/2 cup of hot sauce to the bottom to prevent meatballs from sticking or burning. Layer meatballs and remaining 2 cups of hot sauce so the meatballs are evenly coated.
Step 5
Scatter pieces over butter over the top of the meatballs. Cover and cook on high for two hours.
Step 6
After cooking, gently stir meatballs to evenly coat with hot sauce and to stir in any separated butter. Transfer to a serving dish and coat with remaining buffalo sauce from the crock pot.
Step 7
Sprinkle the buffalo chicken meatballs with chopped celery. Serve alongside blue cheese or ranch dressing for dipping.
