Barbecued Drumsticks Slow Cooker Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Grease a baking pan with cooking spray.
• Arrange chicken drumsticks on the baking pan. Sprinkle Cajun seasoning, poultry seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper over chicken. Sprinkle flour on top. Spray cooking spray over chicken. Cover baking pan with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until juices run clear, about 2 1/2 hours. Uncover and spread barbeque sauce evenly over chicken.
• Continue baking, uncovered, until chicken is tender and falling off the bone, about 30 minutes more.

Steps:

• Mix ketchup, onion, brown sugar, garlic, vegetable oil, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
• Place chicken drumsticks in a slow cooker and drizzle sauce over top. Cook on High for 3 hours.
• When the 3 hours are almost up, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Transfer chicken and sauce to a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Cook in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone, the juices run clear, and the skin is browned, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Mix sugar, paprika, mustard, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper together; rub mixture evenly over chicken; transfer to slow cooker.
• Pour 1/2 cup barbecue sauce over chicken and toss to coat.
• Cover and cook until chicken is tender, 4-6 hours.
• Position oven rack 10 inches from broiler element and heat broiler.
• Place wire rack in foil-lined rimmed baking sheet and coat with vegetable spray.
• Transfer the chicken to prepared baking sheet; discard braising liquid.
• Brush chicken with 1/2 cup more barbecue sauce and broil until lightly charred and crisp, 10-15 minutes.
