pounds chicken drumsticks
At least 12 hours, and preferably overnight, put sprinkle oregano on drumsticks and press oregano so it adheres to the skin of chicken. Place in plastic bowl and drizzle olive oil over the chicken. Fire up grill. While grill is heating, use grill tool to remove debris from grates and spray non-stick grill coating on grill. Be careful of flare-ups.

Yes, that's salmon to the left. Place drumsticks on grill, when it has reached high heat. Grill for about 5 minutes, or until grill marks appear, then turn chicken over and cook on the other side for another 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and grill chicken over indirect heat, for an additional 20 minutes, or until meat is done.
