Ingredients

  • 3-4 pounds chicken legs
  • 1 cup BBQ Sauce of choice
  • 2-3 Tablespoons Rotisserie seasoning or BBQ seasoning of choice
  • 1/2 cup water

Instructions

  • Arrange the chicken legs evenly in your crockpot.
  • Sprinkle the rotisserie seasoning over the chicken. You may use tongs or your hands to rotate each piece to coat it completely.

  • Pour 1/2 cup of water in the crockpot.
  • Cook the chicken in the crockpot on low for 5-6 hours or high for 2-3 hours.
