Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 8 chicken drumsticks
  • 2 tbsp  olive oil
  • 2 heaping tbsp Steeped Tea Smoky Tea-Aki Rub
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • lime wedges
  • Chopped fresh cilantro

Instruction

  • Rinse chicken drumsticks and pat dry with paper towel.
  • Rub with oil, then with tea blend, then with brown sugar, and refrigerate for at least an hour or overnight.
  • Heat grill on high, then turn it to medium-low and grill chicken drumsticks, turning often.
  • The brown sugar will give a nice char, but be careful not to burn.
  • I like to brown the drumsticks on the direct heat, and then turn off one of the burners, put the lid down, and cook the chicken with indirect heat.
  • The drumsticks should take about 30 minutes to cook through.
  • If you aren't sure, a thermometer should read 175° in the plumpest part of the drumstick.
  • Remove from grill and scatter with chopped cilantro and wedges of fresh lime for squeezing.
