Ingredients
16 chicken drumsticks, nice plump meaty
¼ cup Big Green Egg Savory Pecan Seasoning
¼ cup chipotle flavored hot sauce
¼ cup maple syrup
¼ cup barbecue sauce
1 cup crushed pork rinds or bbq potato chips or hickory sticks
Instructions
Take a sharp knife and slash the outside of the chicken drumsticks, about a ¼ to a ½ inch deep at most.
Rub the bbq seasoning into the drums making sure to rub it into the slashes. Let marinate in the rub for at least an hour. If you can go overnight the flavor intensifies
Preheat grill to medium-high. About 325 to 350 degrees
In a small bowl whisk together the chipotle hot sauce, maple syrup and bbq sauce. set aside at room temperature
Grill chicken drums for 40 to 50 minutes, turning frequently until the drums are lightly charred and fully cooked but still moist n tender. Minimum internal temperature of 165 F. but personally I think 185 degrees to 195 degrees internal on drums is perfect. The chicken will be moist and juicy and peel tenderly from the bone
Place all the cooked drumsticks into a large bowl
Toss in the bbq sauce mixture
Toss to evenly coat
Toss in the crushed pork rinds or bbq potato chips, mix well
Serve Immediately
