  Make sure all the pieces are well covered.

• 4

  Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight for best flavor.

  Remove the chicken from the refrigerator half an hour before grilling to allow it to come to room temperature.

• 7

  Place the chicken pieces on the grill.

• 8

  Close the BBQ lid and grill them for 30-40 minutes, until they are cooked on the inside (75°C core temperature) and golden brown on the outside. Turn the drumsticks regularly for even cooking.
