Northgate (Gonzales Market) has chicken drumsticks on sale for 79 cents a lb until 9/10, so get em while they're still cheap! Ah what the hell. I'll take 5 packs, thanks!

The weather was very nice today. Warm-to-hot but with a very cool breeze throughout the day. The forecast is 104 next weekend, so I better enjoy it now.

Brine for 4 hours and applied a lot of rub consisting of brown sugar, oregano, chipotle rub, thyme, garlic powder, ginger powder, basil spice, paprika, and cumin.

Loaded up two racks.

Kept the lid slightly open to bring up the heat.

After 1 hour at 300 to 325, I applied Rays Buffalo sauce, then added more rub. The next 30 minutes, I maintained 275, and with the remaining 30 minutes I lowered it to 225, mopping with Rays Buffalo Sauce every 10 minutes.

The finishing product! Shared some with my neighbor, Chad. His wife made some great salsa, beans, and tortilla to go with it.

very nice looking chicken legs!!! Thanks for the heads up on the price too, I just don't know if I have room in the freezer. I really like going to Northgate except on weekends, too many people.

You're welcome. I'm always looking out for good deals. I wish we had a forum section where we could just post deals discussion on meat and grills. I was browsing fatwallet today and Target is having the one touch silver on clearance for $49.
