Sharon:
I took a closer look at all those wing recipes and have a couple
thoughts. First, if you want to use drumsticks, were I in your place, I'd
simply double the amount of sauce or glaze called for in the recipe. I'm
assuming you're using about 8 to 10 drumsticks, so I'm sure doubling the
amount of sauce, or maybe just one and a half times, should work. I prefer
wings with a lot of sauce on them, so I'd double it and then cut back after
seeing if it's really too much or not. Second, I see that a lot of the
sauces and glazes aren't applied until the wings have been mostly cooked. I
see there are instructions given on how to roast wings in the oven. If you
do this, I strongly suggest using parchment paper. I have found that when I
use foil, the wings stick relentlessly no matter how well I try to grease it
first. Parchment is much easier to work with. In my opinion, deep frying
wings is the best way to go, but I have been searching for alternatives
because I don't always feel like dealing with the mess. One way that seams
to work alright is to steam the wings for about 15 to 20 minutes, then drain
well, pat dry, then finish roasting in the oven. This eliminates a lot of
the fat that often turns into smoke and/or causes the wings to stick even
worse than they otherwise would. On a side note, I have ordered volume two
of the "Slow Cooker Revolution" as of today, so perhaps there will be more
wing recipes in there. Anyway, those are my thoughts. Jon

Any of the ideas in the 20-s and 30-s, and the last two 49-50, but not on a
grill.

Sharon:
I have only just begun my search through chicken drumstick recipes, but
I wanted to let you know there are two recipes in my cookbook for the slow
cooker that use drumsticks. One of them is for barbecue drumsticks, and the
other is for drumsticks finished with a honey mustard glaze. I may pick one
of those recipes to be on my next menu. If you're interested in the
recipes, let me know. If you give me an idea of what flavors you want to
use, that will help me a lot in my search. Jon

You know, that's a really good question, Sharon. Let me poke around
on line today and look at some recipes using chicken drumsticks and
I'll get back to you. My guess would be to allow at least 3
tablespoons of sauce for each drumstick piece, but that's just a guess.
I'll look into it and
get back to you. Jon

If you wanted to do drumsticks with some of these ideas, how much more of
each ingredient might you use? I'm bad with proportions.
