Chicken drumsticks are the lower portion of the chicken leg. Keeping the bone in and the skin on provides exceptional rich flavor, naturally bastes the meat to retain moisture during cooking, and yields a crispy, savory exterior when roasted or fried.

Culinary Uses
- Ideal for high-heat roasting or baking to render out the subcutaneous fat and crisp the skin. - A classic choice for breading and deep-frying or air-frying. - Excellent for braising or simmering in stews, as the bone marrow breaks down and heavily enriches the cooking liquid.
