Ingredients
Scale
- 2–3 pounds chicken drumsticks (or wings)
- 1/3 cup sodium soy sauce
- ¼ cup white vinegar

- Place drumsticks into your slow cooker.
- Pour sauce over the drumsticks and toss to combine.
- Cover and cook on low heat for 6 hours (or high heat for 3-4 hours). Use a slotted spoon or tongs to turn your drumsticks over in the sauce every few hours to make sure all sides get cooked in the yumminess.
