Smoked Chicken Legs on Big Green Egg with Malcom Reed HowToBBQRight

[@Ryan-ml4qi]

I will just say this. I dont mean to put anyone down, as these days everyone has bbq videos it seems. I have been grilling and smoking for decades on everything from a gas grill, pellet, weber, and all in between, but any man worth his salt can always learn. Malcolm Reed is the real deal and has brought my bbq to the next level. I appreciated your videos years ago and still today. Cheers sir from the hills of California's central Sierra Nevadas! Keep on going sir. I try and support you by purchasing your rubs and sauces.

[@ThrustIssues7]

Love watching these older videos. Wild how much of an improvement there's been in Editing, and camerawork. Regardless of which, these older videos will always be my favorite.

[@dorisnotnigel]

There's basically no point in looking for other recipes. This is the gold standard....High-quality chicken, light smoke, Big Green Egg. That'll do me! Thanks, Malcom

[@austinbaker6435]

Just wanna say that I appreciate you all doing videos like this. I’m new to the BBQ world and between your videos and podcast, I’m learning a lot real fast. Lol thanks so much and God bless!

[@stevenblackowiak2276]

Malcom, I just followed your recipe for these drumsticks on my Kamado Joe. I even used your rub and BBQ sauce. Absolutely wonderful! Big hit with the family too. The Layers of seasoning with AP and BBQ rub really stood out. Sweet and sticky glaze, perfect!

[@gthrizy3]

Malcom. You make my grill sing. I’ve had a lot of people ask for recipes and I keep pointing them back to you. This is an old video but a great one.

[@lsb9881]

Looks good. I cant wait to try this. Thanks for sharing.

[@JeffStoneman]

Just made chicken tonight on my Green Egg for the first time and used this recipe. Worked perfectly! Everyone loved it. Thanks!

[@teslaman3025]

Did up a batch of legs with my Weber, put a bit of Mesquite wood smoke on them and they were astounding!! I used some Kingsford competition briquettes with rails on each side. Did some dry chips of wood for a bit of flash smoke so the Mesquite would not overpower the rubs. Great video!!

[@roltol7539]

nice this guy tells the temp range and duration for the cook, explains all i need :)

[@robfohl]

Malcolm, made your chicken leg recipe for my girl.. she was so impressed, she said she’d marry me.. going to name the baby “Malcolm”.

[@joshuasmith6950]

Robert Fohl it's been nine months. Has Malcom been born yet?

[@DJRattliffe]

Them Malcolm folks can cook! I'm a Malcolm too.

[@robfohl]

Joshua Smith yes! He's a year old now, loves BBQ,

[@JohnVC]

Wait a minute is she kind of dirty blonde? Cuz I just made this girl some ribs and she said...

[@Thackula]

😂

[@EdHourigan]

I followed this video yesterday and it was a big hit! Can't wait for your next video!

[@TracksideNW]

I love your channel man. Every time I’m searching for a video on how to cook something on my pellet BBQ and I see your face I know I’m going to find a great informative video with awesome tips and recipes. The wife even asked last time when I cooked a rib eye on cast iron, “Did that one guy have a video?” I just turned and said very matter of fact, “Of course I watched his video, did you think I’d just take any KZbinr’s advice?” 😂

[@tangojoe9694]

Hanging legs like this is the best way to cook 'em - in my opion. Those looked great, awesome color!

[@RayMacksKitchenandGrill]

Now that is a nice grill rack...great color on the chicken legs. It doesn't get any better than this.

[@scottrunyon1817]

As a new "Egg" owner, I wanted to thank you for your recipes on video. They are very helpful and a great guide for we novices. Keep up the great work!! Trying the chicken legs tomorrow night.

[@ryanscott4237]

I did these this past weekend. Wow, they were good. And they didn't even have to have the sauce added to them to make them taste great.. Thank you Malcolm.

[@nl8511]

You have the best BBQ vids on the net brother.

[@richsajdak]

I liked how you did the summary at the end. I wish more BBQ videos did that

[@sktech76]

Use your techniques and recipes all the time! They’ve never failed me! Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Trying this for the first time this coming weekend, super excited

[@jeannedrapeau4505]

Malcom, I make several of your recipes and I buy your BBQ rub as well as your AP rub and I love your recipes! You are the master of BBQ!

[@miltonscornertobylove5068]

Man you act very humble every time you get to taste your cooking unlike the rest. Great vid man n very informative for rookies like me. you are my motivation to cooking!

[@RichardNutman]

"If that ain't how to BBQ right, I don't wanna know how to BBQ wrong!" Nuff said! :D

[@tomsmith8641]

You don't know what you're saying do you?

[@mistergrendel32]

I made this recipe yesterday and it is delicious! A keeper. Thanks Malcolm. 🤓

[@samrichards8251]

Best tasting chicken I have ever had. This is my go to recipe nearly every week now. 👌🏻 thanks mate

[@otisflick]

My pops use to say “never trust a skinny cook”. Turns out he was right. Nice job.

[@preparedliving]

Cooking for a wedding today for 50 people and I have had these racks but haven't used them ....but will try it now thanks for great video malcom

[@lynlarson5674]

I just finished this recipe.I used strawberry juice with Rays Bbq sauce. Easily the best legs I have had in recent memory. Thank You

[@simondilks4796]

Trying this out tonight on my new egg! Thank you for being so informative in your videos!!!! 5 stars for me.

[@paulpowers8774]

Love the videos Malcom. I just bought me a large Rivergrill with a side smoker and I want to be better at grilling for my family and friends and your videos really help me do just that. I just did the ribs that you demonstrated on your video and it was the best we ever had hands down. Just wanted to say I'll be viewing your other videos to continue learning from the ways of the pros. I appreciate you sharing your secrets to make me better on the grill and a hit with my family. Just so you know I do tell everyone about your videos and give credit where credit is due.

[@CitizenPerkins]

Ooh! I found an older vid! Wanted some quick advice on grillin' some legs and you didn't disappoint! Nice job, sir! 👍😁

[@YOLOIYL]

Thanks Malcom! Your receipes for the egg are awesome! Please keep them coming! Thanks again!

[@petrolhead7814]

That chicken leg didn’t had a chance! Great to see how the show mad a lot of progress. Greetings from The Netherlands

[@egrocket94]

Tried this cook today. Turned out crazy good. Used pecan and peach wood. You've gotta try that combo! Thanks

[@patrickwhelan8118]

Great video. Love the drumstick rack and sauce. Watching from New Zealand 👌

[@kevinb5075]

I am trying this tonight!!!! I will alter the bbq sauce to lower the sugar content, but this guy is a genius!!!

[@stephenguitarist9726]

Malcolm Reed... Pit Master and One Liner extraordinaire.

[@wayne2411]

Just tried this today with your BBQ rub. It turned out great and will be doing this again for sure!!

[@gcoffey223]

Made some legs the other day. Did a lot of it the way you said. Mmmmm GOOOD!!!!

[@ryankoehler3170]

Just watched this video...love the idea of dipping them and letting it caramelize.

[@vilchis212]

Very good recipe and very well explained!!! Thank you

[@Jackdifyouplease]

Malcom, you the man, sir! Learned a ton from all your videos! Thank you :)

[@markreed3810]

Malcolm, I tried this last weekend. The Flavor was great, but the skin was tough, really tough. I had the temp right on the whole cook. Any ideas on what I may have not done correctly?

[@pastorbluntaround7701]

I think a lot of it comes down to where u get the chicken… there are high quality and low quality meat selections. Maybe try a more expensive brand of chicken and see how those do

[@bhiei]

Just tried this recipe as my wife wanted chicken legs, they came out great! Stole the show

[@joshuachambliss498]

Once again Malcolm comes through for the win!!!!

[@rorybrown3149]

Great video. I run the BBQ department of a hardware store. I can't wait to try this out for myself (and bring some of your products onto my shelf!)

[@ShariHarris-ok7lf]

I love my rack, but I notice in the oven it burns from the top of chicken leg so I wrap with aluminum foil just the small chicken tip end. Just remember to spray the rack with Pam before using it's hard to clean.

[@Jimmerca]

Can't wait to try one of these racks awesome recipe Malcolm. I also like to cut up whole turkeys when they're on sale and smoke them on my primo porcelain smoker👍🏻🤠👍🏻

[@tonybrannen1740]

Man do I love your lessons on how to cook.

[@seahawks1185]

If you buy a rack like that, cook it by itself once before you use it, sometimes they give off fumes because they are mostly cheap.

[@frankgrimes3775]

Sea Hawks good advice

[@miltonscornertobylove5068]

Sea Hawks same thing goes for any smoker I would say, cuz when I used my smoker for the first time everything taste it metal. Lol

[@biggbellylove]

*BROTHER, IM GLAD I FOUND YOU CHANNEL* IM LOVING YOUR STYLE. I JUST SUBBED, AND JOINED YOUR NEWSLETTER. BOUT TO PLACE ME ORDER FOR YOUR SAUCE AND RUB. I REALLY LIKE YOUR STYLE. THANKS AGAIN YOUR GOOD OL ARKANSAS FRIEND BIGG KRIS.

[@porsche944mt]

Been using his rubs, sauces and pickles and my family and friends think I'm a genius! His BBQ technique is second to none! I'm a much better "Pitmaster" because of Malcom!

[@sanjeevvadaketh5620]

Malcom how's the skin, is it bite through or rubbery?. At those temps it cant be crispy.

[@rayhankabir466]

Malcom,you tha man,sir.its very good job sir

[@Forevertrue]

Another good one Malcom! Thanks!

[@jrichard711]

I can't believe how good these are for so little effort.

[@mapledoodle5516]

Malcolm- you're the man! Love your stuff. Haven't gone through all your videos- but wondering if you could set up a tandoori chicken- Malcolm Reed style video. Bet you'd do a hell of a job!

[@charisma7619]

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! You take the time to show us step by step. I been thinking about one of those chicken racks .

[@africard]

That is the coolest drumstick rack!

[@zachm745]

always loved ur videos, easy, simple, and full of flavor

[@patrickrogers02]

They look absolutely fantastic!!

[@myk1200s]

Malcom looks great!!! Question what's the proper way of cleaning a Butcher board?

[@sp3ck4]

Love the rack for cooking wings on the grill too. Simple and great results.

[@rustykc8962]

Hey Malcom, its Football season brother. If your up for it can you possibly do a video using your new gadget but instead of legs using wings like pcs56 commented on? I for one would love to see that video!

[@sp3ck4]

This is the one I use. I just put coals on both sides of the weber and put the rack in the middle. Put the lid on and let it cook for about an hour. EZ and awesome...Not my pic by the way... wings. i1034.photobucket.com/albums/a429/acwiesemann/IMG_7983_zps66a95148.jpg

[@rustykc8962]

Man that is the coolest thing ever! Typically how long do you smoke them at what temp? Im going to find one of those right now! Thanks buddy

[@sp3ck4]

Not sure about smoking them at low temp. I usually do them about an hour at 350-375. I just fill a chimney about 1/2-3/4 full coals and then divide the coals evenly on each side of the grill. Season the with some olive oil and season salt (or whatever you like), put the rack in the middle with the heat on each side, put the lid on, and just let em go. Melt butter and hot sauce in a small pot on the stove and then toss the wings in it when they are done.

[@warrencrusenberry6750]

Rusty KC I got two racks at Lowe's and I also know Home Depot carries them or near the the sam. Best way to cook legs and wings.

[@ardoinjc]

I thought we lost you at 3:45...Be careful!!! hahaha

[@porsche944mt]

It is the Bayou Classic Chicken Leg rack. Just ordered it....

[@Working_Man]

I am Starving Marvin ... Getting me some today. Thanks so much great job!!!

[@qtwpqtwp]

recently picked up Killer Hogs BBQ RUB i find it fantastic and can't wait to try the other flavors, I will have to order it from your site because local Walmart only has the one. I am also a fan of the How to BBQ Right dexter Knife great product best price point out there and is great for all kinds of cutting including watermelon

[@charlesdecesaris7553]

Man that looks good, Malcolm. I found a leg rack at Menard's for 7 bucks. I'll give it a try this week.

[@aseemdhillon2601]

bkuuh8

[@str8upskol]

How’d they turn out

[@juddy6675]

I like the grill rack, what a brilliant idea !

[@justinray6670]

oooh brother your videos make me hungry and make me want to cook I smoked my very first brisket this pasted Thursday and I want to start cooking more. my dad growing up would smoke a lot on his smoker which he gave me nd I have been putting to use. send me a link to your website so I can order some rubs.

[@rms353]

I've learned so much from your page! Thanks for posting great videos bro!

[@mayesman1015]

Enjoy your videos Malcom. If you dont mind me asking, do you reduce the salt amount in your main rub since you put on a base with the AP rub which consists of a good amount of salt?

[@jodywhitt1871]

That looks phenomenal! I'll definitely try this.

[@JohnVC]

Hey Malcom, you should try Filipino adobo style chicken legs next. Marinated in garlic, soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, bay leaves and chili flakes. Grill. Then reduce a marinade for a sweet salty sticky glaze.

[@macEboy]

Nice job as always Malcom and the Mrs, That rack looks like it would make a perfect looking leg (no grill flat sides). Not to mention, a super-low maintenance cook. It almost looks like its tall enough for a turkey leg?

[@howtobbqright]

Mac M yeah, it might be. Depends on the size of your turkey leg, but small and average ones would work.

[@BernPisarcikJr]

we spray our chicken bone rack with pam, found helps less to stick, esp when wrapping with bacon

[@chemagracia7058]

hello malcom, I follow you from Monterrey Mexico, and Im your biggest fan, I wanna make you a question. if I want to do this chiken legs and at the same time 2 racks of baby backs ribs and I have a smokey mountain webber do i put them at the same time or first the baby back ribs an after an hour or two put the legs? i hope you anwer me . thank you

[@TheDude21519]

Hey Reed I want to thank you for the great videos brother, I've a lot from your videos and now I am a follower of your work.....keep up the great work and thank you for teaching me a lot of things when it comes to smoking!!! ***SUB'd!***

[@stevelopez4571]

DaRealist One Same here man! I was pretty new to the smoking Q game. I started with ribs watching Malcoms videos and now people ask about my delicious ribs! Haha thx Malcolm!

[@GrumblesM4]

you're the man Malcolm!!!

[@FuckinAism]

Love the recipe! Instead of the microwave, why not put the sauce in the smoker to warm up?

[@kevinglenn8973]

Glad you got a rack to try. Love mine. Do you think this will do good in a competition?

[@DanielRodriguez-sl6yb]

Cooked to perfection delicious! 🔥

[@11111bdavis]

This looks so good. Making this tonight!

[@9929kingfish]

great color on those drumstick. what size egg are you using?

[@howtobbqright]

9929kingfish That is the XL BGE

[@kapbab751]

+HowToBBQRight Malcom Reed Does the size of the egg play a role in what kinds of meats smoke better on there?

[@t2thex21]

Look sooooooo good!! Gonna do this tomorrow if the weather holds up in the uk!! :)

[@TexasRanchu]

Ordered my from Amazon..cant wait to try it ..

[@EHCBunny4real]

Do you think you can hang turkey legs on it because I need a hanger when smoking my Disney style legs

[@williamriley2528]

The vertical racks are available on Amazon also...

[@jaraddecapua4195]

Love your videos. Keep it up

[@nahtanoj92]

I just made some of those last week and they are delicious 😋

[@mikeo5657]

These look amazing. Where did you get the glove liners? I've been looking for a glove that I can wear for heat but still have flexibility.. Any suggestions?

[@damonjbrennan]

They looked delicious dude, love your videos!!!

[@framus666]

Do you just toss out all that extra rub/seasoning on the plate after or save it for later?

[@rogerbrierton5726]

Get a hold of Rec Tec Grilles. Their electronics are the best out there for maintaining a constant temperature ( no in between temps) throughout your cook and their build is perfect. Huge hopper and no disappointments. Enjoy your videos and wish i were your neighbor.

[@rogerbrierton5726]

+Roger Brierton Sold my ceramic grille and bought a Rec Tec and have never looked back with any regrets. They should give you one and i would really like your input for all recipes that i could trust for flavor and quality!!! All the best.

[@gcoffey223]

Do I know how to skoke Chicken? Yes I do. Do we love Malcolm? Yes we do!!

[@CristobalRuiz]

I love the "early" videos!

[@brittneynicole7765]

I must overlooked your turkey leg recipe. You've grilled everything from pie to brisket. There's no way you don't have one lol

[@BrianKirbyOutdoorsman]

Great video, I'll have to try that rack

[@ShariHarris-ok7lf]

I love my rack, but I notice in the oven it burns from the top of chicken leg so I wrap with aluminum foil just the small chicken tip end. Just remember to spray the rack with Pam before using it's hard to clean.

[@nwrvt]

Malcom, I have insulated grilling gloves that are great for removing large cut of meats from my smoker but won't work for this. Can you go into more detail of your glove selection in this video and maybe where to purchase? Thanks!

[@howtobbqright]

+William Strope I just use a white cotton glove liner and a latex glove on top - works great for handling hot meat.

[@RiderRevolutiontv]

Love your video's Malcom, one question, does leaving the skin on impair the smoke from getting into the chicken?

[@IsaacWilliamsii]

These look amazing. I'm going to buy a leg rack.
