You know its going to be good when the pit master looks like a linebacker.
😎
@@BeginnersBBQ btw made these just like you said and it was a crowd pleaser with the family. 👍
Definitely agree, a 100 pound grown man probably isn’t cooking the good stuff!!
Linebacker? This man is straight O-Line! Hell yea!
Linebacker my ass! That there is a nose guard and he will destroy you
The quick recap of exactly how and when and what temp at the end made me a subscriber. Nicely done.

Man you hit a a home run with this Bbq chicken. I’ve been to famous Dave restaurant and it’s some good bbq.
I live close to where Dave is from in Wisconsin. I believe the first one was in Hayward WI. There is on in Duluth MN that I have been to pretty good.
Like the recap it helps a lot
I’m glad I can help
I use Famous Dave too, they just came out here in Colorado with Texas BBQ sauce as an additional flavor, very peppery it’s a favorite now
Wow I haven’t tried that flavor yet.
Super helpful! Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
I’m finishing the first burn off on my Pit Boss Smoker and then I’m making these drumsticks just like you did!
Great work
Thank you 🙏

No problem, glad I can help.
Thank you for this video. I am going to try chicken legs for the first time tomorrow in the Traeger. Chicken legs are half the price of wings right now. Appreciate the simple instructions. I have subscribed.
Thank you for subscribing. I’m glad I can help out.
Very good channel brother! You got a new sub and like. And ❤️ I'm throwing on some huge chicken legs on the green mountain Daniel bone
.excited can't wait! Thank you my friend..great Great video
I'm new to pellet grills and found this video after going to a BBQ through down and one of the contestants advised to start off with some sort of dark meat like chicken legs. Followed your instructions, but used Sweet Baby Ray's instead as that's what I had on hand. Turned out great! I haven't seen anyone else using corn starch but can't imagine not using it. Great recipe and great video bro!
Thank you I love reading comments like this one. That’s what this channel is all about. I’m glad I can help

I’m glad I can help.
They closed the Famous Dave's in Tulsa OK. It made me sad. It didn't realize you could still get the sauce! Thank you sir!
Yea they sell them at Walmart
I tried this chicken on my pellet smoker it was the best chicken I’ve ever made thanks for the video
I’m so glad to hear this. This is why I do this.
I comeback every time I cook these lol. I always for get time and temp
I’m glad I can help.
greetings from germany!!!!! great drumsticks!
Thank you.
Dinner 🍽
Definitely agree , famous Dave’s is where it’s at.
Love famous Dave’s sauce.
Well done sir
Thank you.
The bite made me hungry
Great video. The legs look awesome. Keep smoking!
Thank you.
Oh yum
Oh man I’m gonna have to try this today. I don’t have a fancy grill but I have a thermometer I’ll leave in it to try to maintain the temp.
You dont need a fancy grill to make this. What ever you have will work. You got this.
Great job bro, seasoning up my new Traeger now and I’m going to throw some legs and thighs on for the first cook.
Congrats on the new grill.
I agree with Dave's bbq sauce being the best. And devil's spit Is very hot... but awesome
Just gave this a try, came out pretty good! IDK if the corn starch did anything as the skin was kinda rubbery but otherwise the family was impressed!! Maybe a higher temp? IDK my pit boss always seems to struggle to maintain temp. Ended up being around 285-290 most of the cook.
I’m happy to hear that it came out great.
For a good BBQ sauce, look for one without high fructose corn syrup as the first ingredient.
You know it’s going to be good when the Pitt master can barley breathe after every other word 😅😂
Damn those look good.
They where a hit with the family.
Where do you get that bbq sauce at?
Thank you gonna make a dish for the little ones
You know it’s pops when you give it that short little “ughn!”
You know it. 🤤
Man you made that chicken look good
Your reaction makes me want to buy a Traegar.
🤣
What temp do you set you set your grill ?
Did these on my Traeger, turned out pretty good. The skin was kind of rubbery but maybe I didn’t do enough corn starch. I’m going to try Olive oil next. Thanks for the video, you did a good job btw.
Honestly, if you just apply a good rub, but still follow his smoking instructions, you're going to have some good food.
That's a traeger thing, cook them to like 180. Or put in airfryer after
Can you specify what temp to look for at that 1 hour mark? Thanks!
Should be around 150-160. Then you add the bbq sauce and once there done, they should be at 170 internal
Using your recipe on 20 lbs of legs going into the Timberline XL for my dudes at work!
Hell yea!!! Let me know how it comes out.
@@BeginnersBBQ Came out great bro. Did 48 drums. Mango habanero/devils spit mix, Rib Rack hot honey, Sweet baby rays garlic parm, and Kinders teriyaki👌🏼. Ran 300 for about 50-55 mins to 165-175(some drums were twice the size as the others) and 15-20 mins after saucing! Thanks again for the corn starch tip!
@@gsairborne man I’m glad to hear that. It’s sounds delicious
Where are the recipes listed on your videos???? Do you have a website?
PA DAM DISHOOM!!!
What are the dry ingredients first put on? Flour? Flour, salt and pepper? Did you add the corn starch to the other mystery ingredients or directly to the legs. I am a true beginner.
It was bbq rub and corn starch
Did you flip these at all
Get that man an asthma pump😂😂 great recipe though
😅
What was the temp you set it at
oh yeah brother
How have you been?
@@BeginnersBBQ Been doing OK been real busy over the summer getting the motorhome ready to go to glacier with my portable Traeger
Love watching your stuff brother
@@fattnersgeekfile5478 where is that at
@@BeginnersBBQ Glacier national Park it’s in Montana
Should I skip the corn starch if the legs I have are skinless?
Yea you should skip it.
So do you prefer laying them down over hanging them on a rack?
I haven’t tried hanging them on a rack. But I do want to try it and see if there’s any difference.
@@BeginnersBBQ there isn't lol people be making it too complicated.
So I have a gas grill… what I do🥲🥲… and most of the time I see people flip their chicken leg.. any advice on that
I would put the chicken legs on the second grill grates. And cook it there and once the chicken gets to 160 internal temp, move it down to the main grates do get that char grill look and taste.
What temp o. The grill?
Did he just say scorn starch? Bro I'm dying :)))). Thanks for the tip though. I do have corn starch though, gonna try the recipe.
lol 😂
Got my chicken in the smoker praying it’s good
Once you put the chicken in do you flip the chicken?
No I don’t
You’re getting winded from prepping drums?
Made some awhile ago following your video, just using no cornstarch and different seasoning. They turned out fucking great.
Making some today also and came back to this vid to follow instructions. Gonna have to try out that sweet and spicy famous daves bbq sauce soon tho!
I’m glad it worked out for you.
Recap=subscribers.
Started the video cutting straight to the good part!!! A big BITE! 😊
Glad you liked it.
Olive oil crisp the skin too😀
Yes it does. Next time that what I’m doing.
What was the final temp after the final 15 minutes?
It was 175 internal.
@@BeginnersBBQ At 175 is there the fear of overcooking? I have always heard about the magic temperature of 165 for chicken.
@@carlos-ib4id not with bone in chicken. If it’s boneless than yea right at 165. But on bone in chicken you want to go 175 internal. The majority of pitmasters take it to 180-190 internal.
@@BeginnersBBQ Thank you very much for the information. As per your advice I took it to 175 and boy was it delicious. My family loved them! Thanks again for the awesome content!
@@carlos-ib4id I’m glad it came out good. I’m here to help.
How much cornstarch though?
Tablespoon
@@BeginnersBBQ thank you
1:49 300 degrees for 1 hour and 15 min to 1 hour and a half.
How much corn starch ??
Just enough to coat the chicken.
I dont want it if my pit master aint winded mixing up the ingredients
Lmao 🤣
Ingredients please
When you say “put in some of this” you don’t say what it is you’re putting on then chicken. Flour? Baking Soda? corn starch?
Sorry about that. It’s corn starch
@@BeginnersBBQwow thanks for the reply! I loved the video and it’s awesome to see you looking for feedback and questions in the comments!
@@PopeDope69-420 thanks for the support. I’m always looking for feedback. Even the bad ones because that how I learn.
A table spoon of cornstarch?????? Bro that was like half a cup
No flipping?
No. Not at all
@@BeginnersBBQ Okay, thanks for replying in an instant.
@@anglerstube8021 glad I can help
Damn brother good video but damn you need some breathing exercise my dude 😂
Hahahahaha. Yea got it all taken care of in the newer videos.
Another smoking show where the cook doesn’t tell how many pieces, what amount of ingredients to use.
Hello, I’m sorry for not adding that info as I am still learning to be more informative on my videos. The amount of chicken doesn’t really matter. It could be one piece or 12 or 20. The important part is making sure they hit that internal temp. Now on the ingredients it’s all there but it’s up to you how much you want to add. I like heavy seasoning while other may like a lite season on there chicken. I will try to keep in mind to be more informative
