Grilled chicken drumsticks prepared according to this recipe turn out incredibly juicy, with a crispy, glossy crust and a wonderfully sweet and spicy barbecue flavor. Before grilling, the drumsticks are rubbed with a mixture of brown sugar, chili powder, paprika, and cumin and then left to rest in the refrigerator while you prepare the barbecue sauce. Some of this sauce will be used directly during grilling, while some is reserved for serving. In addition to ketchup and spices, the sauce also includes brown sugar and molasses. These ingredients impart a rich flavor and leave a light, delicious glaze on the chicken drumsticks.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, chili spice mix, paprika, and cumin. Sprinkle the chicken with 1 tablespoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper, then rub all over the legs with the spice mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
BBQ sauce
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, orange juice, garlic, molasses, hoisin sauce, and mustard until smooth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, 10-15 minutes.
Exit: less than 1.5 tbsp.- Remove the chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling. Preheat the grill to medium heat and brush the grates with vegetable oil. Grill the chicken, covered, turning occasionally, until the skin is crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the drumstick (away from the bone) registers 170°F (77°C), 35 to 45 minutes. About 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time, begin brushing the drumsticks with a little barbecue sauce.
- Transfer to a platter and drizzle with additional barbecue sauce. Serve the drumsticks with the remaining sauce.
