6 large chicken legs (with thighs attached, 3 to 3 1/2 lb.)

Rinse the chicken legs and pat dry.
Mash the ginger together with the allspice, pepper and garlic.
Add the lemon juice to make a paste. Lift skin on chicken and spread 1/2 of the mixture over the chicken flesh.
Brush the remaining paste over the chicken skin.
Barbecue.
