Number Of Ingredients 9

8 chicken drumsticks
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 garlic clove, minced (optional)
8 slices bacon
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 ounces plum jam
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (to taste)
1 tablespoon mild chili sauce (to taste)

Steps:

  • Prepare a fire in a grill.
  • Rub drumsticks with salt, pepper and garlic, if using.
  • Wrap a strip of bacon firmly around each drumstick, securing ends with toothpicks.
  • Brush with vegetable oil and grill, turning frequently and brushing with additional oil, for about 12 minutes, or until cooked through.
  • To test for doneness, pierce meat in the thickest part with a thin skewer.
  • The juices that run out should be clear.
  • Heat jam for sauce with apple cider vinegar and chili sauce in a small pan or microwave oven and beat together.
  • Arrange hot drumsticks on a platter around a dish of the sauce for dipping.
