juicy baked BBQ drumsticks

Hey Reader,

FINGER-LICKING GOODNESS ALERT! I made these juicy, fall-off-the-bone baked chicken drumsticks extra easy with just 5-ingredients and 3-minutes of hands-on-prep. This simple dump-and-bake, budget-friendly recipe is an absolute crowd-pleaser, so get ready for these succulent barbecue drumsticks to become a new weekly staple!

A few quick notes for ya:

• Extra Sauce: Serve leftover BBQ sauce brushed on top of the drumsticks once they come out of the oven, or on the side for dipping.​
• Meat Thermometer: I highly recommend using a meat thermometer for this recipe (a good basic one will do the trick!) We want the chicken almost totally baked before adding the BBQ sauce and finishing baking.
• Check the Temp: The size and thickness of drumsticks varies greatly depending on where you buy them. For best results, use that meat thermometer to check the temperature at the meatiest part of the leg, not touching the bone.
