Low-and-Slow BBQ Chicken Drumsticks
  1. 1

    Assemble all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Coat a baking pan with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Place the chicken drumsticks in the prepared pan; season with Cajun seasoning, poultry seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Dust the top with flour. Spray the chicken with cooking spray; cover the baking pan with aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated oven until the juices run clear, about 2 1/2 hours.

  4. 4

    Remove the foil and pour the barbecue sauce evenly over the chicken.

  5. 5

    Bake again, uncovered, until the chicken is tender and falling off the bone, about 30 minutes more.
