Summer picnic

The credit for this one goes to Ben Kahn, Took drumsticks tossed em in canola and then Ben's rub, which he refuses to divulge any ingredient except one, which I wont post out of respect. Vacu-sealed then froze for a week or so. A one day thaw and then on the grill with a full hickory smoke box over indirect heat. Seemed to get an almost fried crispiness to the skin whilst retaining considerable moisture, I believe keeping the back burner on high in order to keep the smoke rolling while the front burner completely off is the key. Finished with a light slather of Stubb's spicy (my store bought of choice). Served with baked beans reduced slowly with a bit of catsup, and a fresh fruit salad composed of: kiwi, mango, strawberry, bartlett pear, banana, salt, pepper, lime juice, and honey. Retarded good. Jess and I have had some variation of this meal weekly for at least a month.
