Drumstick rack

Hey Everyone,

I saw some posts with drumstick racks.  Was wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a company that sells them?  Everything else I have bought in the short amount of time with my egg has been from a small company such as Ceramic Grille Store or Kick Ash.  Was hoping someone was selling drumstick racks that I could support.

    The grill gate is the best drumstick rack there is.

    Do not spend $$$ for a not needed rack. 
    Here is three different cooks on my mini:

    Salado TX & 30A  FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Just given a Mini to add to the herd.

    Thanks! I will skip the rack and just use the grate.

    Just echoing what others have already advised! I bought a 12 drumstick hanger at Lowes at least 16 years ago. AND to this very day I have never used it! No sour grapes, but you really don't need one! BTW I'm egging 20 Georgia Red Wings on Sunday and all of them do very well just laying horizontally on the grate.

    I have one and love it. I cook indirect and raised direct. No flipping or turning. Just put them on and leave them alone until they’re done. The dishwasher takes care of cleanup. I spray it with Pam before use and I think that helps. Can’t remember the brand but it came from academy sports.

    I have a Mr Bar B Q EZ leg and wing holder that I used once.  I found it to be pretty flimsy and more trouble that it was worth with pieces of chicken falling off of it.  Mine has been back in the box for probably 8 years and I don’t miss it.

    I think many of us here consider that a fancy grate of sorts and just don't bother to clean it unless it gets extra gross.  Or clean it at 500+ F.

    @nolaegghead. +1  

    I have the rack and use it often.  It’s not a must have, I’m just too lazy to flip the legs around.  The hanging rack just eliminates a step.  

    As as for cleaning, it’s cooking at 400 Direct (my setup), not much to clean after that.  Once I take the chicken off I just leave the rack in the egg to cool.  The residual heat is to clean it...”good enough”.

      couldn't agree more. I got a deal on 6 of them at the end of the season at Lowe's. They're somewhere in the back cellar waiting for the yard sale after I die!

    If I ever decide to use it again this will be my method.

    I didn't read any of the rest of this stuff, but I like my leg hangers. Might need to go grocery shopping for some legs and make a post tomorrow.

    Anymore, instead of wings, I will do chicken legs, but since getting the gear from CGS, the leg holder has not been used. Raised indirect makes them easy, and no worry about the cook.

    If you like that gear, you should take a look at the "new" stuff BGE has developed.  Pretty sweet equipment.

    Bought couple of these years ago at Wally. Flat piece of stainless, foldable detachable legs, no nooks and crannies, super easy to wash after soaking.
