Sticky Slow-cooker Drumsticks

So I may have forgotten to take a picture of this one, but it's really good! Now the recipe specifically said drumsticks, and I did some drumsticks and some breasts...and the drumsticks were by far better. The breast meat got very dry in the slowcooker--but maybe if you wanted to try bone-in breasts instead of boneless? That might be better. Otherwise I'd stick with drumsticks and maybe some wings if you wanted to branch out. But really, this took me about 20 minutes in the morning and it was delicious! Pair it with some sticky rice and sauteed bell peppers, and you're good to go! Maybe snow peas... Anyway, thank you AllRecipes.com Dinner Spinner iPhone App! Because yes, there's an app for that.

Sticky Slow-cooker Drumsticks

2-4 lbs chicken drumsticks, skin removed (use really good kitchen scissors)
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced (my garlic actually went bad so I substituted for ~2tsp of garlic powder)
8oz can of tomato sauce

This is a recipe you will definitely want to use slow-cooker liners for. Again, these are made by Reynolds, and they're with the Reynolds wrap and Ziploc bags. So PAM the crock pot, place the liner in, and PAM the liner. Otherwise the brown sugar will make your crock pot a mess that will need to soak--and who has sink space for that? Place all drumsticks into the slow cooker, spread them around. Then in a medium mixing bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, tomato sauce, and garlic. Pour the sauce evenly over your drumsticks and cook on LOW for 8 hours.

The soy sauce makes it a little salty, so you may want to add more sugar for balance. But it's really good, and the meat falls right off the bone. I'm expanding my chicken horizons...
