Spicy drums w/zest

[philpom]

We dropped by Kroger for a few things a few days ago and I saw big packs of fresh wings! I suddenly wanted to grill some but right next to them was big packs of drumsticks. Wings are crazy these days, over $4/lb. I remember when butchers threw them out... the drums were $1.39/lb. I figured I'd do them wing style.

Today after thinking awhile on it I decided to do them a bit differently. This sauce is fantastic and I highly recommend you try it on wings, drums, or even thighs.

1/2 cup sweet baby rays
1/2 cup Louisiana sauce
2 tbs chili garlic sauce
6 finely minced jalapenos

Very low simmer for an hour, lid on.

I seasoned the drums with extra fine Himalayan salt, nothing else.

Primo setup indirect with the dome temp @ 300°f. They cooked for 40 minutes, at that point they registered around 180°f internal. Then I sauces them and gave another 7 or 8 minutes to set up.

Spicy with serious zing, mouth watering.

Cheers

Really nice color on the drum sticks coming off the grill. I'd need to cut back on the spice, but the flavor profile is certainly there.

I bet those hit nicely. Add an adult beverage and you have a party.

Thanks y'all, turned out great. All gone now, leftovers went in to soup and made awesome chicken salad!

Those look fantastic. Might have to try that sauce. I prefer drums over wings. More meat, less effort.

Thanks, I have to agree. Also way more affordable.
