As chicken legs will vary in size and thickness, so will the cooking times. If you’re cooking really large or thick drumsticks or thighs, add a few more minutes and pierce the chicken at it’s thickest part to make sure the juices run clean. Use whatever BBQ sauce you love.

Notes
Air Frying Tips and Notes:
Shake or turn at least once while cooking. Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket.
If cooking in a non-preheated air fryer, it take longer to cook than if the Air Fryer is already pre-heated. Recipe timing is based on pre-heating the air fryer.
Recipes were tested in 3.4 to 6 qt air fryers. If using a larger air fryer, the recipe might cook quicker so adjust cooking time.
Remember to set a timer to shake/flip/toss as directed in recipe.
