Prep time: 50 minutes
Serving note: Use about 1 lb of drumsticks (3 to 4 pieces), 1 tbsp BBQ sauce (about 4g net carbs), and 1/2 cup halved cherub tomatoes (about 3g net carbs). Bake at 425F for 40 minutes. The BBQ sauce is the only sugary item, so keep it to 1 tbsp. Save the rest of the tomatoes for Friday.
