Ingredients
- 4 pound chicken drumsticks (fresh or thawed from frozen), frenched
- 6 tablespoon raspberry chipotle rub, divided
- 4 tablespoon honey
Directions
- To make the "lollipops," use a sharp knife and cut off the knuckle end of the drumstick (where the wing was connected). Grip the bone tightly and push the meat and skin down toward the meaty end of the drumstick to create a knob.
- Preheat grill to medium-high.
- In a large bowl, sprinkle 2 tablespoons Raspberry Chipotle Rub over the Frenched chicken drumsticks and toss to coat.
- Place on the hot grill. Turning every few minutes to prevent burning.
- In a small bowl add the remaining 4 tablespoons Raspberry Chipotle Rub and 4 tablespoons honey. Stir to combine. Baste over the chicken lollipops for the last 5 minutes of cooking, turning occasionally to prevent burning.
- Serve immediately.
