Baked BBQ Saucey Garlic Chicken Drumsticks

It was raining and my dreams of barbecuing these were dashed, but they tasted amazing out of the oven! I fully recommend either/or. These are just so finger-licking good, the sauce is a no-fail recipe that will work on many kinds of meat, also awesome on chicken breast as I find it keeps the juices contained and wont let your meat dry out. I love it on these drumsticks, and it’s a perfect for a summer dinner with a side salad and crusty bread or even a pasta salad. If barbecuing, prepare as recipe instructs and cook over med-high heat for about 7 minutes per side. Enjoy!
