Crock Pot Maple Dijon Chicken Drumsticks

drumsticks

Maple syrup

tbsp balsamic vinegar

Dijon mustard

tsp garlic salt

cracked pepper

Season chicken with garlic salt and pepper and place in slow cooker. Combine maple, balsamic, and Dijon in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Pour over the legs, making sure the chicken is covered. Set a 6-quart slow cooker to HIGH and cook 4 hours, or until cooked through and tender.

this is our favorite Gina recipe so on this freezing cold day a nice hot dinner seems appropriate. Question - can I throw in some frozen veg with these &amp; if so at what point in cooking

I made this with chicken thighs. I would do it again but use bone in thighs, add some chicken broth and cook on low. When the cooking time was done there was no sauce left  and parts of the chicken and sauce were crystalized and burned. I scraped out the burned parts, added chicken broth and fresh sage. I will make it again but with the above changes. I think my slow cooker runs hot, especially on high.

SO EASY and YUM, YUM, YUM!!! It's a KEEPER!!!

In order to cover the chicken with the sauce or marinate you have to doble the ingredients.
I turned the legs half way and came out good but next time I would doble everything but the legs

These are awesome! I've made them many times, the whole family loves them, the meat just falls off the bone.

This recipe is a winner! Five star taste , whole family favorite, sooo easy to prepare..what's not to love?!!
 I'll make this often.

This was really good a super easy.  
I only used 6 drumsticks but made the same amount of sauce.  
Will definitely make again.

This was great and so simple!  Very few ingredients.  I substituted, by mistake chicken thighs for drumsticks and they were great!

Is it possible to make on the top or in the oven, and how long would thighs take?

This was absolutely fantastic! I used bone-in chicken thighs, minced up a little garlic and sliced up a little onion and put them on top, doubled the sauce, and when I was done the chicken was falling off the bone. I shredded it a little bit, put that over seasoned rice, then with the gravy I thickened it with some cornstarch and put that over it and the flavors are outstanding! I will definitely be making this again and again!

This is sooooo good.  I know maple syrup seems to be super expensive lately but breaking it down it's still an inexpensive meal for four (or like me, two dinner, two lunch the next day).
I pull the fat off my drums, put the garlic and pepper on. Put them in the crockpot with the sauce on top. I put the heavy meat side down.  I add a veggie on top, usually baby carrots. I cook them on low for 4 to 4 1/2 hours and let them sit an hour or so on warm because that really browns the drums.  YES, it works for browning them!  They will look like the pic. At least mine do. I also put a paper towel between the crockpot glass cover and pot so the condensation doesn't fall into the food - keeps it way less wet.
My crockpot runs very hot so low temp times are actually recommended hot temp times for me.  
I make this often and I want to try it with different meats and veggies now too!

Made this recipe tonight. It was fantastic! I used boneless skinless thighs that I had on hand and added onion and a couple garlic cloves.  Cooked on low for 6 hours and it was perfect. Will definitely be making this again.

I make this several times a month! My kids love it. I usually use boneless skinless thighs so we don’t have to deal with a bone. Same cooking time as the recipe lists.

I have made this several times and my family absolutely loves it. It’s so so simple too. The only change I make is sometimes we double the sauce and then take the chicken out of the crockpot and thicken the sauce with some cornstarch to spoon over the chicken!
