Honey barbecue is my favorite kind of sauce on chicken. I think I could eat the honey barbecue sauce by itself; it is so good. I don’t usually cook drumsticks, but these are amazing. The dark meat gives it a great rich flavor that leaves you wanting more.

  • 1
    Mix flour, seasoning salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  • 2
    Combine the milk and vinegar. Set aside for 10 minutes.
  • 3
    Pat the chicken dry (dry chicken makes crispy chicken).
  • 4
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place a wire cooling rack in the oven with a pan under it. Let it come up to heat with the oven. Also, it doesn’t hurt to spray with non-stick spray to ensure a beautiful crust.
  • 5
    Once the milk has “soured,” pour into a shallow dish. Dip the chicken in the milk mixture.
  • 6
    Then dip in the flour mix.
  • 7
    Set aside on a plate until all the chicken pieces have been dipped and covered.
  • 8
    Add the chicken carefully to the preheated wire rack. Cook for 25 – 30 minutes. Rotating the pan halfway through.
  • 9
    While baking, prepare the barbecue sauce by whisking the ingredients together. Remove some of the sauce for serving.
  • 10
    After 30 minutes, baste the chicken with the barbecue sauce. Bake another 30 minutes, baste the chicken every 10 minutes.
  • 11
    Enjoy and serve the extra sauce on the side.
