Oven method: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place skin side up in a shallow pan, baste with marinade, cover with foil and roast for 30 minutes. Remove foil and brush with marinade again. Roast again uncovered for 20-30 minutes. (Test for doneness: drumsticks should be soft and juices should not be tinged with pink when you pierce the thickest part of the thigh with a fork. Brush with marinade twice more during this second roasting period.
