Absolutely delicious
Very easy to cook and very yummy
Beautiful, tasty and cheap meal. I used smokey BBQ sauce, as I don’t have liquid smoke.
Turned out great!
So delicious! Will be a regular in our house!
Easy and very delicious, saved to my favourite recipes to cook again.
This. With corn and coleslaw. A-MAZING! The flavours are incredible and a very budget friendly meal for a crowd, especially when COLES or Woolies drumsticks go on sale for $2-$4kg! We love this. So good.
Yummy! Didn’t have liquid smoke but used an American Bbq sauce that had a smokey flavour.
