Air Fryer BBQ Drumsticks

How is everyone's daylight savings time Sunday? Let me tell you, the time change has thrown me off. It's not even 3pm and it feels so much later. I already went to the market, worked a few hours, have dinner in the crockpot, and watched football. What a day already!

A few days ago I made these BBQ drumsticks in the air fryer and I wanted to share the recipe (it can be found HERE) from Valeries Kitchen because these drumsticks turned out amazing! They were fairly easy to make and anything in the air fryer is better than fried! I don't use salt in my recipes so I took out the salt and we also did not have the dry mustard so we removed both of those from this recipe.

Ingredients for the drumsticks:
A pack of drumsticks (I cooked two batches of 8)
2 tsp vegetable oil
1/4 cup BBQ Sauce (we use Guy Fieri's and it is sooooo good!)
PAM cooking spray

Ingredients for the BBQ Spice Mix:
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp pepper, ground
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper

Directions:
Preheat air fryer to 380 degrees for 5 minutes. Wash the drumsticks and pat dry. Place in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with the vegetable oil. 

Sprinkle the seasoning over the chicken and coat well. Spray the air fryer basket with PAM or cooking spray and place the drumsticks in the basket in one layer. Cook 10 minutes at 380 degrees F. 

Use tongs to flip over the chicken and cook for 8 more minutes. Pull the basket out and use a spatula to apply the BBQ sauce all over the drumsticks. Cook at 380 degrees for 5 more minutes or until the BBQ sauce is caramelized. 

Enjoy!
