Ingredients

  • 6 chicken drumsticks
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/3 cup ketchup
  • 1/3 cup white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 4 teaspoons butter
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoons dry mustard
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder

Directions

Step 1 -Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Step 2 -Put the drumsticks into an oven-safe glass dish large enough that they can fit in a single layer.

Step 3 -Mix the water, ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, butter, salt, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and chili powder all together in a bowl.

Step 4 -Pour the mixture over the drumsticks, and cover the dish with foil.

Step 5 -Bake the dish in the oven until the chicken is no longer pink at the bone, the juices run clear, and a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part not touching the bone reads 165 degrees F, about 1 hour. Make sure to turn the chicken about halfway through.

Step 6 -Take the dish out of the oven, and let it cool for 1-2 minutes.

Step 7 -Serve warm.
