Chicken Drumsticks are delicious when cooked on the grill. What’s better is that you will routinely find them on sale or even clearance. When I find chicken drumsticks on sale, I place them in the freezer. Once we’re ready to plan our grilled meal, I let them thaw in the refrigerator. It will take 24 hours! But once thawed, you can marinate them and cook them deliciously on the grill! It’s an easy dinner for a hot summer day!
BBQ grilled chicken drumsticks are delicious as well, however it’s much easier to burn the chicken with the sweet sauce. That’s why I love using this method with Italian dressing. It’s so easy and the dressing crisps the skin which makes these extra yummy.
