Chicken drummies were on sale at local supermarket so I picked up a pack.

I gave a quick rinse and marinated in buttermilk, salt and pepper for 3 hours.

After 45 minutes, I brushed with olive oil and took them off the grill. Inner temp was 167F.

Chicken had a mild smoky flavour and was very tasty but wasn't super moist as I expected. Skin wasn't crispy or rubbery but had a good bite and flavour.

Smoked Jalapeno SPAM was the winner!!!

Thanks for reading!!!

i have gave up the buttermilk marinade and started use salt brine for 1 hour. So much more juicy. I now just make up a gallon at a time and keep in fridge. one cup salt to one gallon water. I brown over coals and than indirect for 40 minutes and just a quick finish back over heat.
 
Nice looking plate of chicken legs. I'd eat those

Point for sure
