I looked through the tags but it seemed most recipes call for chicken breasts or thighs.
Anyone have any good (or great) crock-pot recipes for drumsticks? The only dietary needs are no onions (or onion soup mix) or garlic. But if it's a great recipe, just let me know cause I can easily leave those out.

To be honest, though i find that just leaving the onions or garlic out of a recipe doesn't usually alter it too much:) (also, i'll sacrifice for, say, salsa)
Also, if you are doing this with drumsticks, onions on top or under the drumsticks?
(can you guess what I'm thinking for dinner tomorrow?)
As I recall, the "sticky" bit doesn't apply as much when it's done in the crock but when you slow-cook it in the oven (5 hours at a low temp), the onion caramelizes and gets beautifully sticky juices all over the pan.
I have not done this one in a wile, but oj,pinaple,and teriyaki, then served with rice. adjust to your taste before adding to chicken
Oven fried drumsticks
20-24 drumsticsks
1/2 C flour
2 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground pepper
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp Emrill's Essence (not sure what's in it, it's one of those spice mixes from that "BAM!" guy)
2 tsp garlic power or poultry seasoning
1/2 C. butter, divided and melted
----------------
Heat oven to 450. Combine flour, and spices in ziplock bag. Line 2 13x9 pans with heavy duty foil. Place 1/4 C. melted butter in each pan. Coat chicken in bag, shaking about 3 legs at a time. Place chicken in pans and bake uncovered for 30 min. Turn over and bake 15-20 min longer, or until tender and nicely browned.
This is a really yummy recipe. The spices have SUCH a good flavor. :-)
