OVEN BBQ CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• 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).

BBQ DRUMSTICKS WITH SLAW

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Slash the chicken with a sharp knife and toss with the barbecue sauce in a roasting tray. Season with black pepper and roast for 45 mins, basting every 15 mins with the sauce from the tray, until sticky and cooked through.
• Meanwhile, make the slaw. Mix all the vegetables together in a large bowl, then toss through the salad cream and some seasoning. When the chicken is cooked, serve with the slaw and some crusty bread, if you like.

BBQ-MARINATED CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• Clean them drumsticks. Sometimes they have small pieces of bones and fat which you need to remove.
• Put all the drumsticks in a large plastic bag.
• Make a batch of BBQ marinade. We have made a very easy recipe for BBQ marinade which only requires a few and simple ingredients. Find it on our blog.
• Pour most of the barbecue marinade into the bag with the chicken. Save some of the marinade for later. Close the bag and shake it so that all the chicken is covered by marinade.
• Put the bag, with the chicken, in the fridge and leave it for a couple of hours - we normally prepare the chicken the day in advance so that it marinate for about 24 hours. If you are busy you can skip this step.
• Fire up the grill and grill the drumsticks for about 15-20 minutes. Pour the last of the barbecue marinade over the chicken. Alternatively, you can cook them in the oven at 200 C (400 F) for about 30 minutes.

GRILLED BBQ CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• Pour hot water, 4 tablespoons salt and sugar into a deep container and stir until salt and sugar are dissolved; pour in cold water. Add chicken to brine, cover and refrigerate 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Spray cold grates of gas grill with grilling spray; preheat for indirect heat by turning one side of grill to high and leaving one side on very low heat.
• Stir together remaining 1 tablespoon salt, paprika, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and cayenne pepper in small bowl. Drain chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Season chicken with spice mixture. Place chicken on cool side of grill, cover and cook until chicken is no longer pink (180°F), turning occasionally, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Baste chicken with BBQ sauce, move to hot side of grill and cook for 2 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning. Serve with additional sauce, if desired.

BBQ GLAZED CRISPY CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375. If you have a convection oven, I highly recommend using that setting for this recipe. I have tested without a convection oven and while it did produce comparative results, the chicken was crispier when using convection.
• Rinse drumsticks and pat dry to ensure that you get as much moisture off of the surface of the chicken as possible. Place on a paper towel and set aside.
• Pour the cornstarch into a large Ziploc bag and close. Shake the bag to break up any lumps of cornstarch and to coat the inside of the bag. (I like to use the large freezer bags, but if you don't have any you can use sandwich bags and work in batches).
• Open the Ziploc bag and insert the drumsticks. Seal the bag again and try to leave a good amount of air in the bag. Give the bag a good shake to evenly coat the meat.
• In a medium size pan with high sides, heat the oil over medium-high heat until small wisps of smoke appear on the surface. (You want to make sure that the depth of your oil is about a 1/4 inch; so the amount of oil you use is subject to the size of your pan)
• Working in batches, fry the chicken for about 3-4 minutes per side or until the crust is just starting to brown. Transfer to a cooling rack placed over a paper towel to drain.
• Line a cookie sheet or baking pan with foil and place a cooling rack on top of the foil. You can use the same cooling rack that you used to drain the chicken. Place the chicken on the cooling rack.
• With a pastry or basting brush, paint the drumsticks with your favorite BBQ sauce. (I use a ketchup based sauce like Cattlemen's. I found it best to put a light coating of sauce on the meat to impart that hint of backyard BBQ without over powering the flavor of the chicken).
• Place the drumsticks in the pre-heated oven and bake/roast for about 30 minutes.
• Remove from oven and allow the drumsticks to sit for about 5 minutes to cool slightly before serving.

BARBECUE CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• Make the chicken: Combine the brown sugar, chili powder, paprika and cumin in a small bowl. Season the chicken all over with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, then rub all over with the spice mixture. Cover and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the barbecue sauce: Whisk the ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, orange juice, garlic, molasses, hoisin sauce, mustard and chili powder in a small saucepan until smooth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. (You should have 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups sauce.)
• Remove the chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling. Preheat a grill to medium and oil the grates. Grill the chicken, covered and turning occasionally, until lightly charred and a thermometer inserted into a drumstick (without touching the bone) registers 170 degrees F, 35 to 45 minutes, brushing with some of the barbecue sauce during the last 10 minutes of cooking. Transfer to a platter and brush with more barbecue sauce. Serve with the remaining sauce.

EASY HONEY BARBECUE CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• Season chicken legs with seasoning salt and pepper.
• In a fry pan with oil, brown the chicken legs on all sides.
• Place the chicken legs in a greased casserole dish.
• Sprinkle with chopped onions and garlic (if using).
• In a bowl combine all remaining ingredients; mix well, and then pour over the chicken (mix slightly to coat the chicken legs).
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken legs are done.
• *Note* if you find that the sauce is too thin at the end of cooking, place the chicken in a large bowl, and transfer the sauce to a saucepan to boil down and reduce slightly for about 30 minutes.
