Slow Cooker Memorial Weekend Chicken Drumettes Directions:
Arrange the drumettes in a snug, mostly single layer in the bottom of a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker.
Sprinkle the ranch seasoning evenly over the chicken, then turn the drumettes gently with tongs until lightly coated on all sides.
Spread the drumettes back into an even layer and pour the barbecue sauce evenly over the top. Do not add water.
Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours or HIGH for 2–3 hours, until the chicken is very tender and reaches at least 165°F internally.
Gently turn the cooked drumettes through the sauce until evenly coated.
For a thicker sauce, remove the lid and cook on HIGH for another 15–20 minutes.
For lightly caramelized edges, transfer the cooked drumettes to a baking sheet and broil for 3–5 minutes, watching closely.
Serve hot with the thick barbecue-ranch sauce spooned over the drumettes.
