The chicken comes out amazingly fall-off-the-bone tender, and the foil in the bottom keeps it from being greasy.
Slow-Cooker BBQ Chicken Leg Quarters
6 chicken leg quarters
barbeque dry rub
barbeque sauce
aluminum foil
1. Place aluminum foil balls in the bottom of the slow cooker.
2. Rub the chicken with a barbeque seasoning of your choice. I prefer Grill Creations Smokey Mesquite.
3. Place chicken on top of foil in the slow cooker. Cook on low 6-8 hours or high 3-4 hours.
4. Remove chicken from slow-cooker and place on a rack above a foil lined baking pan. Brush both sides with the barbeque sauce of your choice.
5. Place under the broiler and cook until the skin starts to crisp and the sauce starts to char slightly (just a few minutes). Remove and serve.
I'm making this for dinner today. The only rub I had was Kansas City style - I hope it works well with the BBQ sauce. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteMade this tonight. Was even better than I hoped. Thanks for sharing the great tin foil technique. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI made this tonight, and I'm adding it to my permanent meal rotation. It was so good!
ReplyDeleteI do not have the smokey mesquite rub I have grill creations chicken and rib rub. Would that work just as well?
ReplyDeleteHe said you can use any rub you like, so I think it would be good
DeleteCan you put them on top of each other?
ReplyDeleteI made this about six weeks ago and even my skeptical husband loved it! Been asked to make them ago for Super Bowl fun food!!!
ReplyDeletecan you make this for just 2 leg quarters in crockpot?
ReplyDeleteI'm putting meat on a lemon bed and putting BBQ sauce on while cooking; then will put in oven to crisp up the skin!
