How the heck do you make chicken drumsticks crispy?
Is there a way to make them crispy in the oven? I burned the living heck out of 6 drumsticks. Came out all black, looking like an old catcher's mitt. Gross. I took a bite out of one. Vile charcoal.
Do I need to coat the things with something? Or do I sit there and watch the stuff?

i cook my chicken on 450 "convection roast" but if u only have a regular oven u just move the shelf inside up ore towards the top little coil things for crispier skin. u could also try 400 until about done and then crank up to 450 for browning.. also if u brush lightly with some oil or butter it will help crisp them up.
i never have a problem with crispy skin but i use breasts.. my mom has a gas oven and i do them at her house on the top shelf at 450 for about 50 minutes.. drums would be a little different time wise though ..

475 if you can, should be plenty hot enough.
*edit* 405 says 450. But he might just be numerically dyslexicNO SOURCES GIVEN

What man cooks chicken in an oven? Grill baby grill.

I always like a thin olive oil coating on my chicken. Comes out a little crispy. What I LOVE is marinate chicken in orange juice and a ton of cilantro for 3 days. Then BBQ or bake. The chicken is all orange and comes out sweet tasting!

Same here. When I do drumsticks I apply a thin layer of olive oil with my seasoning. Next I seer them directly over the coals in the firebox to get the skin crispy. Finally I finish them off in the smoker (not the smaller firebox where the coals are, inside the smoker chamber I keep the temp around 225F) until they reach an internal temp of 165F (I pull them out of the smoker & let them rest for 5-10 minutes since they will continue to warm another 5* or so). If they get much hotter than that they start to get dry & tough. If you don't like the "smokey taste of traditional BarBQue, wrap them in foil.
As for in the oven, put the top rack as high as it will go & rotate them often so they brown evenly. I rarely cook any chicken in the oven, for boneless skinless chicken breasts I George Forman them.Last edited by EverettCD; 09-01-2013 at 08:10 PM.

I cooK mine low and slow.I brush with hot sauce and dust with garlic powder than set the oven to 350 Papa min leave them in there until skin gets nice and crispy. Throw them in the Tupperware container and have them in the fridge for snacks for me and the kids.

Cover with aluminum foil cook like 35-45min(it gets cooked in the middle, than take the foil off and put them back to get the crust.
Chicken will be juicy, not dry and with crust

austin i can tell u for about certain if u cook bone in breasts in the oven on 450 for 50 mins u will get exactly what ur looking for (except a breast instead of a leg).. just put em on a pan and use garlic powder, pepper, & lawrys season salt.. (the season salt makes the skin BTW)
im smoking 3 racks of baby back ribs today!

Looks bueno.

looks delicious! but if you want to get the best home cooked meals you got to upgrade to Convection oven like 405 mentioned, and Induction stove. I cook allot and this was the best investment I made, cooks crispy outside and leave moist inside, and cooked to the point where the meat falls of the bone, and in half the time it take with gas and standard electric stoves/ovens.

Cook the chicken on a rack if you want crispy. Sitting in juices will make it wet and steam effect going on. Alton Brown suggested for oven baked buffalo wings to steam them first to render fat a little then put them in the oven as high as it can go to reduce smoking.

Hey I know it isn't drumsticks But last night I made some gnarly good chicken.
Take 4 chicken breasts cut into one inch cubes and fry in ro-tel until all the liquid is boiled away. Then add cheese and eat. Sooooo good and spicy. Wanted to share
