There are many problems with this recipe. I do not think small drumettes should be cooked in the Insta pot. The meat fell off the bone. You do not want that with a chicken wing. And the instructions to place the chicken wings on parchment then under a broiler is incorrect. The parchment paper just burns immediately causing my smoke detector to go off. If you dare to try this recipe use tinfoil.
Loved this recipe! I was worried about what the previous commenter said but then realized she used drummetes and not “drumsticks!” My drumsticks came out “fall off the bone” tender! And with my own BBQ sauce, it came out perfect!
This one’s fool proof. Great drums every time!
Was not a fan found the chicken way to spicy
Good 5yebx m7m
I dont have a poultry button. I have a meat/stew button. Is that the same?
You can just use your manual or pressure cook button with whatever the time it asks you to use.
Love this recipe! Only left out the cayenne because i made them for my kids. They still found the skin spicy, but they loved the meat! Definitely making again!
Loved this recipe! The drumsticks turned out great and was very delicious. Going to leave out the cayenne pepper next time. Was a little too spicy!
Perfect for the super bowl!
Great recipe
Great Recipe! Used Cajun Seasoning! Fall off fhe bone good!
Has anyone else used this recipe. Mine were still raw:(((
Chicken was moist and cooked well spice mix was alright kids thought it was spicy. As a newbie to instant pot though i did not expect the 20mins of pressure release at the end of the recipe.
Really simple and tasty! Only reason for not giving 5 stars, having to use the oven also. Well worth it though.
Great recipe. Left the cayenne pepper out. Easy and tastes great. Found time for IP to be perfect—Fall off bone perfect! Thank you for posting!
My wife and I just finished our first batch. What I love most about this recipe is the flexibility. You can use any rub or sauce of your choice. Very moist and so simple.
Way too much cayenne! My husband loves spicy food & even he was running to the fridge for milk!
Great starter recipe for using the Instant Pot with boned chicken.
Very easy to do. The chicken falls off the bone.
Can I make this with chicken tenderloins? My kids don’t like bone-in chicken. Thoughts?
I used full size skin-on drumsticks. The rub was SUPER spicy. I followed the recipe (except I had to double the rub recipe as I was making 12 drumsticks) and the rub just made the outside really dry and spicy. The chicken itself was very tender.
Very tasty. Cut down the pepper and couldnt fathom why youd put 1 tbsp salt in! Wow! So omitted that too. After broiling a while i coated a few in bbq sauce which made it yummier.
I was looking for a way to pre-cook drumsticks to barbeque. This is perfect. My drumsticks were little ones, so the meat was falling of the bone, which I didn’t want, but I think with larger legs, this would work perfectly. For small legs, I would cook a shorter time.
Not a 5 star because of the cayenne pepper and boil situation. Otherwise pretty good
It was tasty… But I was not expecting it to be extremely spicy. I made this for my family and I didn’t realize that the cayenne pepper would be overwhelming. Surprisingly my young kids ate it all but I don’t think I would be making this again. Especially since the rub was still super powdery. And I followed the directions…
I don’t know how to go back and edit my review, but as for people stating that the chicken fell off the bones… That happens when you use the instant pot. Anytime I have any recipe that requires using chicken in instant pot it comes out fall off the bone. But I just wanted to find a rub that would come out delicious.
My instant pot didnt have thw right button for the drum sticks, i was lost?
Way too salty. I would leave out the celery salt and cut the salt down by at least half or non at all if using celery salt
I love this recipe, its a great use of drum sticks and i didnt have to guess if the drumsticks were cooked through for the first time ever.
Super easy, quick and spices i always have on hand so a great quick throw together dinner!
I made this and did not add any spices or salt, just barbecue sauce came out delicious!
I made this tonight and was rather easy. I didnt use every ingredient, so I made it my own a bit. I only used salt, pepper, cumen, paprika, and garlic powder. The drum stick was good and broiled two minutes each side. That is why i didnt give 5 stars. It needs much longer then 2 mins each side. I dont broil often so i followed instructions. Next time im going to broil longer.
Absolutely a new household favorite! Quick easy and great use of chicken legs.
Great way to cook drumsticks!
– half the salt & celery salt
– omitted cayenne
– no poultry setting, just use manual pressure cooking setting.
– broil on high with oven door open for 4min/side.
I should’ve read the reviews before making. As others have mentioned, way too salty and spicy. I doubled the amount of chicken and there was still a lot of rub leftover. I’d omit the salt and cut the rub amounts by 2/3, or find another rub recipe altogether. The chicken cooked via the poultry setting was easy and use those directions again.
This recipe was not intended for the Instant Pot that I purchased. So far, very disappointed with it!
I tried this last night and the chicken came out moist and tender. I was just confused with the measurements. Does the 4 1/2 tsp black pepper actually mean 2 tsp (4 of 1/2 tsp) because 4.5 tsp seems too much? I only put 1 tsp black pepper and I cut the rest of the spices and salt to 1/2. I don’t have dry mustard, celery salt, and cayenne so I eliminated those, added chili instead. The spiciness came out well. I added barbecue sauce when broiling it. I will try this again with the correct spices.
Made this last night. Chicken was falling off the bone. The spices were way too hot for me. My husband loved it. It should be titled Spicy BBQ Chicken Legs.
Salty, WAY too spicy (even for my husband who loves spicy) and overcooked. Also, the recipe made way too much seasoning for the anount of drumsticks. Dinner was a dissapoontment :/
Since so many had the same complaints about the dry rub I decided to just make my own so I can’t speak to the saltiness or spiciness of it. However, the cooking directions for the drumsticks themselves was perfect. Meat was tender and juicy and practically fell off the bone. As for the broiling, I found that I needed to double the time to really crisp the skin but that could just be my oven.
The drumsticks cooked well in the IP. I agree with other reviewers, the rub was too spicy. Next time I’d leave out the cayenne, and use a BBQ sauce, too. My oven has a high and low broiler setting, and low was definitely the better choice. Also, foil on the pan is easier than parchment paper.
We made this for dinner and it was a huge hit! We mixed a dry ranch packet with our bbq rub for the little pallets in our house and everyone wanted seconds.
Used my own rub… sea salt,brown sugar,red pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika Other then that everything came out as expected. Yep, meat falls off the bones, but then again we do not eat legs with our hands too much anyway. Did have to broil for a bit longer however
Way too spicy, way too much rub.
Chicken cooked great! Used my own bbq sauce tho, and added in most of the spices mentioned (in smaller increments) minus the cayenne. And it waa fantastic!
This was my first IP meal! Drumsticks were large and thick so I cooked them 17 minutes. Rolled in spices they went in the broiler for a short time, also with BBQ sauce on them as folks suggested. Totally yummy!
My Family loved this.
Changes I made:
Instead of using Drumsticks I used 6 Thighs, that’s what I had.
Instead of using Pepper and Garlic Powder I used
2 1/2 tsp Garlic & Pepper Seasoning
Also added
1tsp Original Mrs Dash
1tsp of Minced Onion
(I ended up with too much seasoning. Was also too peppery, 1tsp of Garlic Pepper next time. I spread a little chili paste over my husband’s before broiling and he loved it.)
A little spicy for me but still dam good
Love the taste! Depending on what mest you use, it may be too much seasoning. I will keep experimenting with this receipe.
Calling this “Chicken on Fire” because the parchment caught on fire in the oven, but gave the drumsticks an awesome smoky flavor:) . Everyone loved it. Cut the salt to 2 tsp. Used onion salt from Trader Joes instead of celery salt. Also cut the cayenne down to 1/4 tsp.
Hi Rebecca,
The parchment paper shouldn’t have caught on fire as it is made to be heat, grease, and moister resistant. Is it possible that you were using wax paper? They almost look similar except that wax paper cannot be used in the oven and will catch on fire since it’s not heat-safe.
why did I have to buy all the spices if I was just supposed to put barbecue sauce on it after I cooked it in the instapot???
Hi Altined1,
We apologize for the confusion. The spices combined and coated onto the chicken (or meat) is referred to as a BBQ dry rub or BBQ rub for short.
