Ingredients
12 chicken drumsticks, skin on
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup water
Instructions
Pat the chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and onion powder.
Rub the spice mixture evenly over all the chicken drumsticks.
In a separate bowl, whisk together barbecue sauce, honey, soy sauce, olive oil, and water until well combined.
Place the seasoned chicken drumsticks in the crock pot in a single layer.
Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken drumsticks, ensuring they are well coated.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 4 to 4.5 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
Once cooked, carefully remove the drumsticks from the crock pot and place them on a serving platter.
If desired, spoon some of the sauce from the crock pot over the drumsticks before serving.
