Step 1

Add olive oil, melted butter, garlic powder, salt, paprika, curry powder, and cumin in a small bowl. Whisk to combine.

Step 2

Add drumsticks and marinade to a gallon sealable bag or container. Toss to coat and leave them to marinade for at least 30 minutes (overnight works good too!)

Step 3

For the smoker, heat to 350 and smoke for 45 minutes to an hour or until the internal temperature reaches 180 degrees. Turn occasionally for equal cooking.

Step 4

For the oven, preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place marinated chicken drumsticks on an elevated rack inside of a sheet pan. (I usually line the pan with foil to help with cleanup and brush the rack with olive oil to help with sticking.) Cook for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 180 degrees, turning halfway to crisp both sides of the chicken.
