This is the last of the posts of the meal I made for my Montana curling friends. Thanks for putting up with the multiple posts.
The day before the meal, I started by cutting around chicken drumsticks just where the skin starts to widen.
I cut through the ligaments with shears.
I pulled the skin and ligaments over the knuckle of the bone and cut it off.
I cut a flat spot in the end of the drumstick so it would stand on end.
I sprinkled the drumsticks with my Basic BBQ Rub and put them in the fridge overnight. I bagged the trimmings to freeze for future stock.
The next day, I stood them in a roasting pan and put them in a 230 F smoker for 1 1/2 hours.
I brought them in and gave them a good brushing with Koss Barbecue Sauce.
Normally, I would have kicked the smoker up to 350 F but I had other stuff in it so I put the drumsticks in a 350 F oven for 30 minutes.
Here is the finished product.
These were excellent. The Koss Sauce is not as sweet as other sauces so it glazed very well to a beautiful golden colour. It gave a nice sweet/sour warm touch to the lollipops with just the right amount of warmth afterwards that didn't offend more tender palates.
