They were just okay to me. Kept sticking to my teeth but with some tweaking could be very good.

I thoroughly enjoyed this drumsticks! I made a batch for my husband and I to eat over several nights and was very pleased with the way these tasted, even reheated! The seasoning ingredients are simple, standard things that I generally keep stocked in my kitchen, so that really helps to bring the cost of this meal down as well. I will definitely be trying this recipe over the summer on the grill!

Made this reciped for a picnic dinner at the Hollywood bowl. Very easy to prepare and cook. Good flavoring on the chicken. I feel that this would be best served hot. I served it at room temperature and found it to be okay. Make sure you have lots of napkins, the sauce makes it messy!
