Whenever a holiday like Memorial Day
comes around, I like to cook myself up a batch of BBQ slathered
chicken drumsticks to eat and enjoy. Of course anyone can cook chicken, but it
takes a very 'special' person who knows the art of grilling to come up
with a batch like you see above!
Best ever Holiday weather with temps close to 90! |
Now appearances notwithstanding,
there's a lot that goes into both the sauce and the method of
cooking. First off, while I do use a commercial BBQ sauce like
Bulls-Eye, I've never been content with leaving well enough alone! No
sir! I will normally add a touch of hot sauce as I like my chicken to
bite me right back when I'm eating! That's why I add a squirt or two
of Tabasco sauce to liven the party up a little! Just before grilling, I wash the
chicken, pat everything dry and spray on a light coat of cooking oil.
They are then placed in a small Weber styled grill and cooked for
about 45 minutes to an hour over hot coals.
Needles to say, the food was great, especially when served with a side of potato salad.
