How to Get Ready: There are a few important things you need to do before you start grilling to make sure your drumsticks turn out perfectly. First, use paper towels to dry the drumsticks and get rid of any extra water. This will help the skin get crispy when you grill it. Next, use a lot of your favorite BBQ rub or marinate to season the drumsticks. Allow the paste to soak into the meat by letting the drumsticks sit at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes. When and how hot to grill: ● The length of time it takes to grill chicken drumsticks depends on several things, such as the size of the drumsticks, the temperature of your grill, and whether you're using direct or indirect heat. As a general rule, grill chicken drumsticks for 30 to 40 minutes, making sure to turn them over every so often to make sure they cook evenly. ● For gas grills, heat them up to 375 to 400°F, which is medium-high. Place the drumsticks on the grill and cook for 15 to 20 minutes on each side, or until the chicken hits 165°F on the inside. ● For charcoal stoves, stack the charcoal on one side of the grill to make a two-zone fire.
