Brown Sugar BBQ Chicken Drumettes

I made this recipe with chicken leg quarters because it's cheaper and I didn't have any drummettes. This has a sweet and tangy homemade barbecue sauce that has a lot leftover for dipping and using later. Cheap and easy recipe.

Brown Sugar BBQ Chicken Drummettes

2 cups ketchup
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tbs. worcestershire sauce
2 tbs. apple cider vinegar
salt and pepper
6 pounds chicken drummettes, patted dry (I used 5 chicken leg quarters because it's cheaper.)

1) In a medium bowl, whisk together ketchup, sugar, worcestershire, and vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Set aside 1 cup sauce for tossing raw chicken; use rest for baked chicken. (To store sauce, refrigerate, up to 2 weeks.)

2) Preheat oven to 450 deg. F., with racks in upper and lower thirds; line two rimmed baking sheets with aluminum foil.

3) Divide drummettes between baking sheets, and toss with reserved 1 cup sauce.

4) Bake chicken until opaque throughout, 30 to 35 minutes, rotating sheets and tossing chicken halfway through. Toss baked drummettes with 1/2 cup sauce, and serve with remaining sauce on the side. (It took approximately 55 minutes to cook the leg quarters, but just cook until they're done.)



This is the picture I took of the leg quarters I made.
