Steps:
- The day before, make a dry brine: Put 2 wire racks on 2 rimmed baking sheets. Mix together the sugar, chili powder, mustard powder, garlic powder, cayenne and 1/2 cup salt. Pat the turkey drumsticks dry. Put 2 drumsticks in a large shallow bowl and sprinkle generously with the dry brine, rubbing it into every nook and cranny. Transfer to one of the wire racks. Working in batches, sprinkle and rub the remaining drumsticks with the dry brine and transfer to the wire racks. Sprinkle the drumsticks on the racks with any remaining dry brine. Refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 8 hours and preferably up to 24 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the drumsticks, rotating the baking sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through cooking, until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer measures at least 200 degrees F, about 2 hours. Let cool to room temperature. Transfer the drumsticks to large re-sealable plastic bags. (The turkey can be made ahead up to this point and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.)
- Preheat a gas grill to medium-low or prepare a charcoal for medium-low indirect heat: bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results).
- Brush the grill grates with oil. Put the drumsticks on the grill (or indirect side if using charcoal) and cook, turning and basting with the barbecue sauce every 5 minutes, until the drumsticks are deep amber on the outside and heated through, about 15 minutes.
- Let cool for 5 minutes, then wrap the exposed bone-end of each drumstick with foil and serve while warm.

COUNTY FAIR TURKEY LEGS WITH SWEET AND SPICY BBQ SAUCE
Turkey legs are a traditional snack at county fairs. They are also known as "caveman pops" because they are held by the bone and eaten like huge lollipops. Ree likes hers with a sweet and spicy BBQ sauce which, although not traditional, makes a delicious accompaniment to this meaty snack, and a great addition if you are serving these at a party.

DELICIOUS OVEN-BAKED CRANBERRY BARBECUE CHICKEN (OR TURKEY LEGS)
This is SOOOO good! You can double the complete recipe and bake in a roaster pan, throw in a chopped green bell pepper and/or a jalapeno pepper also if desired! Four small turkey legs can be used in place of the chicken, if using larger turkey legs then double the cranberry sauce and BBQ sauce, also the cooking time will need to be increased.

BAKED BBQ TURKEY DRUMSTICKS
This is a really simple recipe to make that I found on the net somewhere. I don't remember but I made it last night and all I can say is the sauce is memorable. It was very very tasty. Sweet and tangy. You could even make the sauce on its own for other purposes. I made steamed broccoli and I threw in red potatoes in foil on the rack above the turkey. It was and is devine! And the kids loved it too!

Tips:
- Choose the Right Turkey Drumsticks: Select plump and evenly shaped drumsticks with smooth skin and no bruises or discoloration.
- Thaw Frozen Drumsticks Properly: If using frozen drumsticks, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or place them in a large bowl of cold water, changing the water every 30 minutes until thawed.
- Prepare the Barbecue Sauce: Use your favorite store-bought or homemade barbecue sauce. You can also customize the sauce by adding spices, herbs, or other ingredients to suit your taste.
- Marinate the Drumsticks: Marinating the drumsticks in the barbecue sauce for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight helps infuse them with flavor and moisture.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before baking the drumsticks.
- Bake the Drumsticks: Place the marinated drumsticks on a baking sheet or roasting pan and bake them according to the recipe's instructions, usually for 45-60 minutes or until cooked through.
- Baste the Drumsticks: During baking, baste the drumsticks with the barbecue sauce every 15-20 minutes to keep them moist and flavorful.
- Check for Doneness: Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the drumstick to ensure it has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the oven.
- Let the Drumsticks Rest: Once the drumsticks are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before serving, allowing the juices to redistribute and the meat to become more tender.
