Ingredients

3 pounds drumsticks
2 tablespoons brown sugar
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon Cajun seasoning
⅓ cup honey
2 cups BBQ sauce divided

Directions

Place all your drumsticks in your slow cooker.

Mix together the brown sugar, pepper, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder and cajun seasoning.

Sprinkle the seasoning mix all over the chicken.

Drizzle the honey all over the chicken.

Pour 1 ½ cups of the BBQ sauce into the slow cooker over the chicken.

Cover and cook on LOW 5-6 hours or HIGH 3-4 hours.

Right before serving place the drumsticks on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper.

Brush the drumsticks with the remaining BBQ sauce and broil under the broiler until they are caramelized, do not let them burn! Keep a close on them under the broiler, you just want to crisp them up a bit.
