Oven BBQ Chicken Drumsticks

6 chicken drumsticks

½ cup water

⅓ cup ketchup

⅓ cup white vinegar

¼ cup brown sugar

4 teaspoons butter

2 teaspoons salt

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, or to taste

2 teaspoons dry mustard

2 teaspoons chili powder, or to taste

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place drumsticks in a baking dish.

Whisk water, ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, butter, salt, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and chili powder together in a bowl; pour mixture over drumsticks. Cover with aluminum foil.

Bake in preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour, turning chicken about halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
