CHEF’S SECRET

Pre-cooking the drumsticks on broil colours the meat, while the time spent in the slow cooker makes the meat fork-tender. Drumsticks can be heated for up to 3 hours.
Practice when you have a whole gang coming over.

If you have skin-on drumsticks, you can easily remove the skin by pulling it towards the bone.
Then snip off with scissors.
