Low Carb BBQ Wings and Drums

These BBQ wings and drumsticks are out of this world! They are partially baked in the oven and finished in the slow cooker, resulting in tender, juicy, flavorful chicken. The sweet and tangy BBQ sauce is perfectly seasoned with a slight smoky flavor. It is so easy for a weekday and delicious enough for weekend gatherings.
