Ingredients
  

Chicken Legs

  • 1 Pack Costco Drumsticks 4 legs
  • 1/2 Cup Favorite Bird Rub
  • 2-3 Tbsp Olive Oil

Alabama White Sauce

  • 1 Cup Mayonnaise
  • 1/3 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 Tsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 Tsp Coarse Black Pepper
  • 1/2 Tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 Tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/4 Tsp Cayenne to taste
  • Water to thin to your liking - I did just about 1 Tbsp

Instructions
 

The Bird

  • Get the RecTeq fired up to 275 degrees.
  • If they're still in the package, get 'em out of there, rinse em and pat day. Give a thin olive oil coating and throw your favorite bird rub on 'em. I put the rub on the meat, folded the skin on top and dusted again.
  • Throw the bird legs on the grates and let 'em go for about 30 minutes. Flip after 30 and let 'em go for another 30 (Total of 1 hour)
  • Dial up the RecTeq to 375 and we're gonna turn that skin from rubbery to bite-through. Keep 'em in the heat for 20-25 minutes - looking for an Internal Temp of 155.
  • Brush on that Alabama White and get it back in the heat for another 15 minutes or so - until IT is at least 165.
  • Rest for 5-10 minute, throw another bit of sauce on there if you want and eat 'em up!

The Sauce

  • You can be more elegant than I, but I combined the ingredients in a mason jar, gave it a solid shake, and in the refrigerator until use.
