prepwe’re gonna show you some of the gearget the grill fired up and then it’stime to get cookingokay I’m deck for ingredients todaywe’ve got a couple rubs to start it offso we can use a little bit of link andrubba-dub– we’re gonna mix those guystogether these are our chickendrumsticks that we bought I have thegrocery store we went with just a goodsolid chicken drumstick that didn’t haveany solution or injection in it thebeautiful part is we’re gonna add alittle bit of oil some of our wing canrub it up to this we’re gonna mix theseguys up let them sit in the fridge for3-4 hours so they really can absorb someof that flavor then we’re gonna glazethem today with a combination of highaltitude barbecue sauce fire honey andsome of our sweet soy sauce ah that’sgonna really I think make this all cometogether nicely if you don’t have sweetsoy sauce don’t sweat itregular soy sauce works just fine todaywe’re going on the technology front sowe’re gonna use our Weber connect smartgrilling hub this is going to do areally nice job of allowing us to pluginto those chicken drumsticks tracktheir temperature now giving us theoption to spend a little bit more timehanging out with our kids hanging out inthe house instead of tending to thegrill then this guy right here the grillmark wing rack that is super coolbecause now I’ll be able to get theseguys rub let them soak and then we’regonna hang them on here let them roastand do their thing before we take themoff put them onto the grill grates toget that final glaze so next up let’s uhdo some prep work get these guys in thefridge and then let them soak theeasiest part of this is getting the prepwork done and it’s very simple we addedour chicken legs and there’s about eightof them here wewith two pounds of chicken legs now whatwe’re gonna do is like we always saywe’re gonna add just a light coating ofoil we just want the oil to coat theseguys to help the rub stick so we’ll keepone hand free we’ll give these guys amix here real quick to get that allstirred up and now it’s time to seasonand again as much or as little as youlike I think I started us off here witha couple tablespoons of each so we’regonna go ahead and get that rub it upadded and then as we get that mixed inreal quick we’ll go ahead now and top itoff with our ink all right and the goalwith these guys is just to get it mixedreally really nice and then we’re gonnapop them in the fridge and yeah I alwayssay we’re gonna let them soak we’regonna let them soak for a few hours Ithink probably four is my suggestion toyou just to give them a chance to reallyget coated and that is it okay the legshave had a chance to soak we’re gettingready to cook these guys off first thingI wouldn’t do is I’m gonna go ahead andadd that chicken leg rack to the Weberright I want that to preheat with thegrill so we’ll go ahead and turn theseguys on push ignite let them go and nowwe’re gonna go ahead and let this get upto that 400 degree temperature then itis time to get cooking all right well asyou can see we’ve loaded our legs onthere we’ve got them all set on the racknow I picked one of the bigger guysbecause I left him out what I’m gonna dois put that probe in there right and I’mloading that guy in there not right onthe bone but close to the biggest partright there and we’re gonna go ahead andhang that guy now all right now thatwe’ve got that probe loaded in we areset to go so we’re gonna go ahead andclose this lid we are now going back upto that 400 degrees we’re gonna letthese guys cook off now probably about Iwould say about 25 to 30 minutes ourgoal is to get them to 155 degrees thenwe’re actually gonna take them off therack put them on the grates do somecooking while the chicken legs arecooking is a perfect time to go aheadand get our glaze so I’ve got ourbasting pot what we’re gonna do is startoff with 1/2 a cup of our high altitudebarbecue sauce and then we’ll add tothat again a quarter cup of fire honeynice and spicy beautiful sweet firehoney and then we’ll add our quarter cupof sweet soy sauce like I said you canadd regular if you don’t have it nowwe’ll get this all mixed up and thenright towards the end we’re gonna goahead and get these guys glazed up butthat’s it look at that beautiful easysimple delicious glaze okay well we justhit that 1:55 mark now we’re gonna goahead and take these guys off I’m justgonna set them here in the front realquick because we want to take thatchicken leg rack off now what we’redoing is basically getting a little bitof char on the outside right we want tocrisp up that chicken skin and reallyget these guys set to go we’ll get thisguy set to the side as well then we’llgo ahead and move our rack off all rightwe got rid of the chicken rack now Ilined these guys up kind of three bythree by twoI left that probe in there because Iwant that to track the temperature nowit is time to get these guys their firstglaze so what I’m gonna do is take thatand glaze these guys on the top herewhat I’m going to do is glaze them letthem go for five or six minutes with thelid covered so that we can continue toget these things just shiny andbeautiful and gorgeous right and thenwe’ll open it up rotate them sauce andglaze the other side okay time to givethese guys a little rotate and then itis time to do glaze number two and I’llprobably go ahead and glaze them acouple more times just to make sure Iget an absolutely perfect glaze on hereI just yeah Wow look at thatI want a beautiful color on here I’mlooking for gorgeous bronzedchicken legs but then I also really
