This looks so good. Definitely doing this recipe. @kimrowland661
Crockpot is my favorite way to cook chicken on the bone (besides grilling), and for whatever reason I almost always make drumsticks BBQ so this recipe is definitely getting made in my household soon!
Thanks for reminding me of the beauty of crock pot cooking. This recipe was the first of yours I tried, and we loved it. The taste is great. The ease of putting it together and the joy of opening a lid hours later and dinner is ready. A new staple in our home! Thank you!😊
Can’t wait! On crockpot now!! It will be done at 5! Smells soooo good!
