Ingredients
- 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken drumsticks
- ¾ cup ketchup
- ⅓ cup fresh orange juice (from 1-2 oranges)
- ¼ cup dark brown sugar
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ cup water
- 2½ tablespoons cornstarch
Instructions
- Place the chicken in a large crockpot set on low heat.
- In a small bowl, stir together all the sauce ingredients.
- Pour the BBQ sauce mixture over the chicken, using a spoon to make sure all the chicken is coated.
- Cook for 5-6 hours on low, or until the chicken reaches 165°F.
- After the chicken is cooked, you can serve it as is or take 2 cups of the leftover BBQ sauce/cooking liquid and heat it in a saucepan. Bring it to a boil and then reduce to a simmer until it's thickened to your liking.
- Toss the thickened sauce with the drumsticks and serve.
