Got a huge thing of chicken drumsticks from a friend, and it's too hot too cook... crockpot activated!

I haven't even broken out the BBQ this year, too much trouble.

So I'm gonna try a crockpot cook and just make them all at once of I can (might have to do 2 batches).

I got some non-alcoholic beer in the back of the fridge. (Dad used to do an amazing beer-baste on BBQ.)
I'm thinking some chopped garlic, and leftover onion slices (use 'em up)
..and just some basic seasonings like rosemary, thyme, etc...

Then I can strip the meat off and save it for use through the week. Tacos, and I got a nice masala sauce in a packet, etc... I wish it was cold enough for soup! Should I bag and freeze the bones?

1. I've done that

There’s no better way to infuse the chicken with savory goodness.

3. Other Spices you might consider

Both Dill and Tarragon are wonderful with crockpot chicken,

also Mustard and Garlic...

4. If u can, do it outside-easy w/a crockpot

When it’s hot I do almost all my cooking on an outdoor table under the awning. I have an air fryer, a crockpot, a rice cooker and a hot plate on the table out there. During a heat wave I even move the toaster and coffeemaker outside.

5. ... That's not advisable in Bear country! LOL

Considering he broke into my house last week I don't want to give him any more reasons to come hang out around here!

6. oooh! turned out AMAZING!!!!

simmered down nice and juicy, fall of the bone...

made a pkg of mushroom couscous, put some chopped carrots, zuchini, and celery in a bowl, threw over the hot chicken & couscous... the veggies were stil nice & crunchy! omg I love my cooking lmao

(my awful ex used to say I didn't know how to cook...because they liked the processed southern greasy crap... )

I got leftover couscous for tomorrow... then I might just rip it all off the bones and bag it and freezehalf for pasta etc...
