A grilled chicken wing drumette is the section of the wing closest to the body. It has one main bone and more meat around it than the flat wing section, which has two thinner bones.
A grilled chicken wing drumette is the meaty, single-bone upper part of the wing; a wingette, or flat, is the flatter middle section with two bones. Drumettes are often easier to hold and eat like a small drumstick.
Cook grilled chicken wing drumettes over moderate heat and turn them regularly, keeping them away from direct flare-ups. Remove them as soon as the thickest part is fully cooked; leaving them on the grill too long dries out the meat.
A marinade of oil, garlic, lemon, black pepper, and paprika works well for grilled chicken wing drumettes. Marinate them in the refrigerator, and discard any marinade that touched raw chicken instead of brushing it onto cooked meat.
Grilled chicken wing drumettes are ready when the thickest part is fully cooked, including the meat near the bone. A food thermometer placed in the meat without touching bone is the most reliable check; color or clear juices alone can mislead.
Pat grilled chicken wing drumettes dry before grilling and start with a hot, clean grill. Let the skin brown before turning the pieces, and brush on sugary sauces near the end so they do not burn.
Grilled chicken wing drumettes often stick when the grill is not hot enough, the grate is dirty, or the skin is turned before it has browned. Clean and lightly oil the grate, then wait for the pieces to release more easily before flipping.
It is better to thaw chicken wing drumettes in the refrigerator before grilling. Frozen pieces cook unevenly over a grill, so the outside can become overdone while the meat near the bone is still undercooked.
Grilled chicken wing drumettes pair well with coleslaw, grilled vegetables, corn, or a fresh salad. For a casual meal, serve them with a dipping sauce; add a grain or potatoes if you want a more filling plate.
Refrigerate leftover grilled chicken wing drumettes promptly in a covered container rather than leaving them out. Reheat them until steaming hot throughout, using an oven or air fryer to help the skin regain some crispness.

Grilled chicken wing drumettes are the meaty upper sections of chicken wings, shaped a little like small drumsticks. They are usually seasoned and cooked over a grill until browned outside and juicy within; they’re a familiar choice at barbecues and casual meals in many places, rather than a dish tied to one particular origin.
Serve them hot with a crisp salad, grilled vegetables or a dipping sauce, depending on the meal. They are high in protein, with 30 g per 100 g, and contain no carbohydrates. For a lighter plate, go easy on rich sauces and pair the drumettes with vegetables.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
