Intro
Lemon Butter Chicken Drums is a fantastic summer grilling recipe that you need to do at least once this summer! This one takes a little work, but the flavors are well worth the effort. Grab your favorite cast iron skillet and get after this one. Also, I’d recommend using a Charcoal grill, but propane will work as well. Don’t have White Wine on hand you can sub in some chicken stock. Lemon Butter Chicken Drum sticks are great to make on a Sunday hot summer afternoon with a cold beverage in hand. Give this one a go and let me know what you think!
