Baked BBQ Chicken Drumsticks

Jennie Duncan
These Baked BBQ Chicken Drumsticks look and taste like they came right off the grill! No grilling here though you can bake these in the oven anytime and still get crunchy chicken drumsticks that are full of flavor.

Notes

The trick though is once they are done baking brush them in BBQ sauce and then place them back into the oven to broiler.
I did mine for just 45-50 seconds and flipped. Continue this until all sides have crispy skin.
