Sweet And Sticky Grilled Drumsticks - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 cups dry red wine
    1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
    2 tablespoons dark brown sugar, packed
    1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
    2 tablespoons ginger, finely grated fresh
    1 garlic clove, minced
    8 chicken drumsticks, skin on
    coarse salt
Preparation
    Bring wine, sugar, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic to a boil in a saucepan.
    Reduce heat, and simmer until mixture has thickened to the consistency of honey, 35 to 40 minutes.
    Let cool.
    Using a sharp knife, make three diagonal slashes through the skin and flesh on both sides of each drumstick (this will help the flavors permeate the meat).
    Preheat grill to medium-low. (If you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 7 seconds.)
    Place drumsticks on grill, and brush with sauce.
    Close cover, and grill 4 minutes.
    Flip chicken, and brush with sauce.
    Continue to cook, flipping and brushing with sauce every 4 to 5 minutes, until cooked through, about 20 minutes total.
    Season with salt.
