Sweet "n" Spicy Drumsticks
"From Huey's Cooking Adventures. Times are estimated but to be honest I would be cutting the honey back to about 2 tablespoons from a 1/2 cup due to diabetic reasons but otherwise happy witht he recipe, he posted as a kids like recipe so servings are for 4-6 kids but I would say 3-4 adults Serve just the drumsticks as an appertizer or at a picnic could be good too."

Such a simple and easy recipe to make.<br/>Not too spicy at all, the only thing I would change next time, (and not the recipe's fault at all) is that I used gluten free soy sauce, and it was very salty, so I think I will need to find a GF sauce that is less salty or better still salt free, although the salt had no negative outcome on the taste of the chicken, the chicken was fantastic!<br/>Thanks Pat, for a great recipe I will use again. -
Yummy and so easy! I didn't get the spicy part of the recipe but my kids are good with that! I would make these again but broil them after them are done cooking to crisp up the skin. I just didn't have time! Made for Everyday's a Holiday. Thanks I'mPat! :) -
Good and sticky. I used 6 legs, but kept the rest the same to have enough sauce for rice. Made for Make My Recipe.

With the demise of the forums and with no more interaction on site with what was a great community and it was a pleasure to get to know so many of you over the years and to have had the privilege of meeting some of you in person. For me now this is just another recipe site like to many on the net, it has lost its specialness, such a pity especially when Scripps changed the name from Recipezaar to Food.com and made this statement sorry cannot replicate here as considered invalid but they basically said yes the community was valuable hence .com was short for community but it was a pack of lies as they were not willing to put the money into that community and got rid of the forums which was the community so for .com has become .crap.
