4. In a small bowl, mix together the BBQ sauce and chicken broth. Pour this mixture over the drumsticks and veggies.
5. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-7 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

Variations & Tips
For a spicier kick, you can add some red pepper flakes or a few splashes of hot sauce to the BBQ sauce mixture. If you’re not a fan of drumsticks, this recipe works beautifully with chicken thighs or even a mix of drumsticks and wings. For a healthier option, try using skinless drumsticks and reduce the BBQ sauce slightly.
