    @Legume - Some great eating ahead.  Belly burnt ends-way to elevate the cook.

    @NPHuskerFL That looks great. There’s a lot a prep work in those chicken legs. 
    For me prep was no longer than that of ABTs. Maybe it's just easy for me :i_dunno:
    Had to adjust a little bit.  Trying to beat the incoming storm...pretty sure the storm is gonna win considering I still have desert to go :lol:

    @Legume I had the same idea yesterday. I was wondering where I went wrong the other times I made them as they were not as I had hoped.  This batch rocked for some reason. Hope yours does as well

    @Sea2Ski - I gather based on the above that you followed the same process as before but had much better results??  Great looking for sure.

    @lousubcap same basic steps but altered the timing.  
    Shortened the smoking step a bit, braised them a hair longer (I think this was the key) then took them out of the braise and placed back on the grill indirect for about 15 mins to firm up the “bark”, Then I tossed them in the glaze in the pan as normal.  Doing it as Malcom did it, I had about 60-70% done perfectly. My modified method took success to 98%.  Give it a try!

    @Sea2Ski - many thanks for the refinement.  Will definitely give your method a try the next go 'round.

    Now you tell me @Sea2Ski

    I smoked these @240 for close to 3 hours as I was distracted by a hike with my wife and pup.



    They’re in with the butter, honey and brown sugar now, so I’ll let that go a little long before pulling to glaze, etc.  I used a mixture of John Henry Summer Peach and Meat Church Honey Hog Hot on them and they still have quite a bit of heat after smoking.  Hope that backs down a bit by the end, at least 1/2 this crowd won’t like lots of heat.
    Love you bro!

    Da-n @NPHuskerFL - a plate of beauty right there.  And you definitely are lollipop proficient if you can crank them at the pace of ABT's.  Enjoy there banquet.

    Thanks man.  Or....I suck at ABTs :lol:
    JK :smiley: Agreed. I've made lollipops so many times now it's merely a repetitive prep for me.

    these should be ready just shortly after kick off.
