Ingredients
– 10 chicken legs
– 1 tbsp brown sugar
– 1 tsp chili powder
– 1 tsp ground cumin
– ½ tsp salt
– 1 tsp black pepper
– ½ tsp onion powder
– 2½ cup bbq sauce
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and onion powder. Mix well to create a flavorful spice mixture.
2. Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken legs, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
3. Place the seasoned chicken legs in a 6-quart slow cooker. Pour 2 cups of BBQ sauce over the chicken and toss to coat the pieces thoroughly.
4. Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 5-6 hours. This slow cooking process allows the flavors to meld together and the chicken to become incredibly tender.
5. Once the chicken is cooked through, preheat your broiler. Transfer the chicken legs to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
6. Brush the remaining BBQ sauce over the chicken legs and place them under the broiler for 3-5 minutes. Watch closely as the sauce caramelizes and the skin crisps up to perfection.
Notes
– For an extra kick of heat, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the spice mixture.
– Feel free to adjust the seasoning levels to suit your taste preferences. More chili powder for spiciness or extra brown sugar for sweetness.
– Serve your Crockpot BBQ Chicken Legs with your favorite side dishes like coleslaw, cornbread, or roasted veggies for a complete meal.
