TOO-EASY BAKED BBQ CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

TOO-EASY BAKED BBQ CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

This easy to bake dinner favorite is delicious and so unbelievably simple to make!   I actually feel  guilty that I don't work harder to make this meal.  

Ingredients:
28 oz. Bottle of Sweet Baby Ray's Award-Winning Barbecue Sauce 
16-20 Chicken drumsticks

Pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees.  

Remove the skin from the chicken drumsticks.   Rinse the skinned chicken in cold water and pat them dry, one by one and set aside.  Squirt 1/2 the bottle of barbecue sauce into a large Ziploc bag.  Place the drumsticks into the Ziploc bag.  Seal it tight and gently shake and massage the bag of chicken until all the drumsticks are covered in sauce.  Then arrange the drumsticks on a lined 17" x 12" baking pan and sprinkle with a little pepper and 1/2 the bottle remainder of bbq sauce.  Cover loosely with aluminum foil.  Slide them into the oven for 1 hour.  Flip at the 30 min. mark and squirt on the remainder of the bbq sauce bottle and slide back into the oven for final 30 minutes with the aluminum foil over top to keep the chicken from drying out.  After one hour, remove from the oven.  To thicken the tasty sauce, let cool for 10 minutes before serving and have plenty of baby wipes on hand for small sets of sticky hands around your family dinner table!  Enjoy!

There are lots of great recipes out there to make your own delicious barbecue sauce but I prefer to keep this the ultimate easy chicken recipe so I stuck with our family favorite ready-made sauce.
