Delicious Grilled Drumettes with Honey BBQ Sauce

These grilled drumettes are marinated and then grilled to perfection, resulting in juicy meat with a sticky, flavorful glaze. The recipe is straightforward and takes about 30 minutes from start to finish, serving 4 people.

Ingredients

2 pounds chicken drumettes
1 cup honey
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped green onions for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the honey, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Marinate the Chicken: Place the drumettes in a resealable bag or bowl and pour the marinade over them. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best flavor.
Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Grill the Drumettes: Remove the drumettes from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Grill the drumettes for about 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are cooked through and have a nice char.

Add the Glaze: Brush the reserved marinade onto the drumettes during the last 5 minutes of grilling to create a sticky glaze.
Serve: Remove drumettes from the grill, garnish with chopped green onions if desired, and serve hot.
