Drumstick recipe?

My family has been on a wing kick for a few months which turned into a drumette kick. We can't get enough! I cook extra and freeze the leftovers. My wife returned from the meat market yesterday with 6lbs of drumsticks she was excited for me to fire up the egg and grill some wings. I had to explain the difference between drumsticks and drumettes. As a family we all tend to favor white meat. Anyone have any good recipes for drumsticks on the egg?

    I cook about the same way as wings-since there is some meat to them I spot check a couple and pull around 180*F.  I run wings very raised direct at around 350-400*F on the dome and they take about 50 mins.  I seem to recall the drumsticks going a few minutes longer. Since you have the wings down, with these I would just go til the temp is good.  FWIW-

    I brined a batch a few days ago for two hours, then cooked double raised direct at 350 for about an hour or so.  Used Dizzy Pig Crossroads and then some Bbq sauce near the end.  Great results!

    I have been trying to find the perfect method, I liked the results with the brine!

    The very best way is to marinate a day or two in Allegro Hot & Spicy.   http://eggheadforum.com/discussion/1189333/pickled-chicken-legs#latest
