SMOKED CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS
These smoky chicken drumsticks are so versatile and easy! I like to use applewood chips or other fruit woods, but maple is also a great choice. Use your favorite BBQ rub. Letting the drumsticks air dry in the refrigerator overnight, combined with a higher smoking temperature, helps prevent rubbery skin that is common when smoking chicken. Serve with your favorite BBQ sauce, if desired.

Steps:
- Before frying, boil chicken legs in a pot of water for 10 minutes.
- In a large saucepan, heat vegetable oil on medium heat.
- On a large plate, combine flour, cayenne pepper, paprika, and salt.
- Keep beaten eggs in a separate bowl.
- Take 1 chicken leg and cover it is flour mixture.
- Place the chicken leg in eggs and cover it in egg.
- Place the chicken leg back into the flour mixture and cover it again in flour.
- Once oil is hot and ready for frying, place chicken leg into the oil for frying.
- Repeat steps 5-8 for each chicken leg allowing up to 3 legs to fry at one time.
- Once legs are fried to a golden brown, remove from oil and place on a double-folded paper towel on a plate.
- Allow plenty of time to cool before serving.
Tips:
- Use a buttermilk marinade: Buttermilk helps tenderize the chicken and gives it a slightly tangy flavor. Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours.
- Dredge the chicken in flour: Dredging the chicken in flour helps to create a crispy coating. Be sure to shake off any excess flour before frying the chicken.
- Use a combination of oils: Using a combination of oils, such as vegetable oil and sesame oil, helps to create a more flavorful coating. Be sure to heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the chicken.
- Fry the chicken in batches: Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the chicken. This will cause the chicken to steam instead of fry, resulting in a soggy coating. Fry the chicken in batches, if necessary.
- Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
