How to Make Barbecue Glazed Drumsticks

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine all sauce ingredients (see below) over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, stirring frequently.
  3. Place the drumsticks in the prepared baking dish. Pour the barbecue sauce evenly over the drumsticks, ensuring they are fully coated.
  4. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
  5. Let the drumsticks rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
