Ingredients
- 1 cup buttermilk

- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 8 chicken drumsticks, bone-in/skin-on
- Kosher salt, for seasoning chicken
- Vegetable oil, for grill
Instructions
- In medium bowl, whisk buttermilk, mustard powder, sriracha, garlic and paprika until smooth.
- Place chicken in large zip-top bag; pour buttermilk mixture over chicken. Seal bag and refrigerate 2 hours or up to overnight.
- Preheat outdoor grill for direct grilling over medium heat, as well as an indirect grilling area on the grill, if possible. Remove chicken from marinade, shaking off excess marinade; discard marinade. Season chicken with salt.
- Lightly oil grill grates. Transfer chicken to grill over direct heat and cook 16 to 18 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, turning occasionally. If chicken starts to flare up over direct heat, move to indirect heat area of the grill and continue cooking until cooked through.
