DAN!!!! (and Scott), these look amazing. After I cleaned the bones, I know I’d be picking up the plate to lick up the last bit of that sauce. Fantastic.
Thanks, Michelle; it’s great to hear from you!
I love chicken legs because they are cheap and flavorful! My kids like them because they call it meat on a stick! Liek a corn dog. It’s always more fun on a stick!
