Steps:
- Preheat the smoker. Preheat your grill or smoker for indirect cooking at 225 degrees F.
- Make the chicken lollipops. Prepare your drumsticks by using a sharp knife to cut off the end of the drumstick leg, just under the bone joint. Press the meat down, away from the end of the exposed bone so the bone forms a handle for the lollipop.
- Wrap the chicken lollipops in bacon. Season the chicken meat on all sides with the sweet rub. Wrap each drumstick in a piece of bacon and either tuck the ends of the bacon or secure with a toothpick. Wrap the exposed bones tightly with a strip of aluminum foil.
- Smoke the bacon wrapped chicken lollipops. Place the chicken lollipops on the smoker, close the lid, and cook until they reach an internal temperature (not touching the bone with the thermometer) of 135 degrees F. At this point, increase the heat in your grill to 375 degrees F to crisp the bacon.
- Add the sauce and finish cooking. Close the lid and continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches 175 degrees F. Brush the lollipops on all sides of the meat with BBQ sauce. Close the lid and continue cooking until you reach an internal temperature of 185 degrees F.
- Rest and serve. Remove the lollipops to a serving platter or cutting board and allow to rest for 10 minutes before removing the foil from the bones and serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Bone drumsticks completely, or ask your butcher to bone them for you. Remove all bones, cartilage and tendons, but be sure to keep skin intact. Season inside and out with salt and pepper. In a mixing bowl combine next 10 ingredients. Mix thoroughly. Divide stuffing among drumsticks, stuffing each drumstick evenly under skin. Place in a roasting pan, skin side up. Roast for 30 minutes, basting once after 15 minutes with softened butter, or until skin is golden brown and puffy. Remove drumsticks to a warm platter, cover and keep warm while preparing sauce.
- Place roasting pan over high heat. Add stock and deglaze, scraping up browned bits and incorporating them into sauce. Boil until half of liquid evaporates. Whisk in butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until incorporated and sauce is lightly thickened.
- Serve turkey on warm dinner plates, surrounded with sauce and sprinkled with parsley.
