Broiling vs. Baking: The Heat is On

As our quiz highlighted, the main difference between broiling and baking lies in the direction of the heat. Baking envelops food in heat, while broiling exposes it to direct heat from above. This difference can significantly impact the texture and flavor of your chicken drumsticks. If you're aiming for a crispy skin, broiling is your best bet. However, it requires vigilance to prevent burning. Learn more about this in our FAQ on whether to use the broil or bake setting when cooking chicken drumsticks in the oven.

Perfecting the Internal Temperature

Regardless of the cooking method you choose, the internal temperature of your chicken drumsticks is crucial. As our quiz mentioned, the recommended internal temperature for fully cooked chicken drumsticks is 165°F (74°C). This ensures the chicken is safe to eat and deliciously juicy.
