Smoked Chicken Drumsticks

Zutaten

• 4.5 pounds chicken drumsticks
• 2 Tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Preheat smoker to 300F.

2. 2

   Pat the drumsticks dry with paper towels.

3. 3

   In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic salt, onion powder, and black pepper.

4. 4

   Toss to coat chicken legs with the oil mixture.

5. 5

   Hang chicken legs on the rack and place onto the smoker. Close the lid and allow to smoke for about 2.5 hours, until the internal temperature reaches 175 to 185°F in the thickest part, away from the bone. Legs laid flat on the grates cook faster, closer to 1.5 to 2 hours, so rely on your thermometer rather than time.

6. 6

   Remove from smoker and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
