Smoked Chicken Lollipops
The chicken lollipop is a "frenched" chicken leg. The meat is cut loose from the small end and pushed down creating a "lollipop" look. The leg bone is left clean and creates the "stick".
To turn regular chicken legs into lollipops you'll need a sharp knife and a pair of kitchen shears. Make a cut completely around the lower part of the leg just below the knuckle cutting through the skin and tendons. Push the meat down to the large end and pull the remaining skin and cartilage off the knuckle. There's a tiny bone right against the leg that needs to be removed. Remove this bone with your fingers or the shears, and trim away the tendons sticking out the top.
To season the lollipops I start with a dusting of my All Purpose seasoning "The General". Next I layer on The BBQ Rub. howtobbqright.c... I give it a good dose for flavor and color. One last step is to cover the exposed bones with a small piece of aluminum foil.
Let the chicken sit for 30 minutes at room temperature while the smoker is coming up to temperature. At the house and in contests I'm using a Yoder YS480 pellet smoker. It's set for 300 degrees running BBQr's Delight Apple pellets.
While the cooker is heating, place a stick of butter in a ½ size aluminum pan. Go ahead and set the pan inside the cooker, so it has time to melt. Once the smoker is up to temp, place the lollipops in the pan with the bones sticking up straight. Close the lid and let it cook for 2 hours.
After 2 hours the internal temperature should be in the 165-170 range. Dark meat is done at 175 and that's just enough time to glaze the lollipops.
For the glaze I use Killer Hogs "The BBQ Sauce". howtobbqright.c... Be sure to remove the aluminum foil and dip the entire lollipop in the warm sauce.
Continue cooking the lollipops for 30 minutes until the glaze is set. You'll want to keep an eye on it, to prevent the glaze from burning. The final temperature should be 175 when you pull the legs off the pit.

I want you to know: people are still coming back to these videos, even years later. Thank you for the awesome recipes. Let’s get to cookin’!
Truth👍
I just did... I go back to whenever if it's what I'm looking to cook to see what everyone does to get there and cherry pick the recipes here and there to get the results I would like. Sometimes I just follow the recipe as is.
Hell yeah! Just got my offset smoker, this will be my first recipe today
@@matttillyer8046 same here, gonna make these this weekend
Always come back to him or Harry Soo for advice videos.
Malcom - Can't thank you enough for this recipe. Tried it last weekend on my Big Green Egg and they came out absolutely phenomenal! Everyone loved them, parents and kids alike.
I don't know why your not getting the continued thank you's you deserve for this video in 2018. I started smoking 35 years ago with an old freezer that I gutted and made into a smoker because that's all I knew how to do. I'll bet there's a heck of allot of us that started that way. Now I'm 61 years old. We moved and have DSL internet. Just discovered you in July 2018. Thank you much. I'll never be a competition guy, but now I might be a hero in my family circle. Best wishes, and thank you for what you do to help all of us that love to cook on a grill or smoker..
Making these for dinner tonight! Malcolm's videos deliver every single time!
Hey Malcom, always love to watch you videos, I just want to say thank you if it was not for you I would never have got into BBQ, I have come a long way since then thank you sir.
I made these lollipops for Super Bowl party. I followed your recipe and instructions and they turned out perfect. Never made these before so I was a little nervous. I got so many compliments. I made 24 and they were gone in 30 minutes. I also made your smoked party wing recipe yesterday and they were also great. Thanks for your great recipes. I’ll ride your coattails as long as you keep posting great food.
I made these last weekend just like the video. They came out great! Big hit for our summer party. They were so tender and had bite through skin. Thanks Malcom for sharing this video!
I go back to this video, even 9 years later. Thanks Malcolm
i so love making this!!!! i did it for my school practical class but used an oven instead, and i got really incredibly high marks for it!!!! i love it!!! mwaaaa!!!
When I want to learn a new technique like chicken lollipops, yours is one channel I always turn to (and often first). Great explanation of how to make these, and awesome looking result! Thank you Malcom and Shelly!
Malcom, you are the man! You keep it simple and to the point. Keep it up.
These videos have changed over the years but I’ll always come back for the recipe!!! Legend status Malcolm
Killer Hogs knocks it out of the park again! Malcom you are the bbq master.
The lollipops look great and I bet my grandkids would love em. I'm going to try a few tomorrow.
thank you malkom i found your channel when I first looked up a smoked wing recipe, I made that about a dozen times, so I can trust your expertise. I followed your chicken drum stick recipe here and still waiting on the smoker for the results, as i type this comment. Thank you, i appreciate your work.
I'm going to take it a bit further and remove the skin and wrap it with bacon. GREAT JOB Malcolm !!!
Though that cant be bad, you end up blocking the chicken from absorbing that beautiful smoke. Maybe wrap the bones in bacon so the juices drip down on the meat
Been on your news letter for a couple years, used several of your recipes, HOLY WOW!!! This will be another addition to the BBQ arsenal!! Thank you Malcom for some amazing food!! Those lollipops look amazing! Thanks for sharing your passion with us!! KEEP ON COOKIN!!!
My husband made these today and used Traeger rub and Traeger sauce and it was phenomenal! Thank you!!!!
Just got your package today; the BBQ run, and your sauce, your store doesn't sell your AP spice but this weekend I'm doing a BBQ for about 30 people, and I'm going to make these. They look amazing and I hope mine turn out 1/2 as well as yours. Your my hero and I'm going to need more of your sauce. I tasted your rub and sauce and it's out of this world. It's my new go to rub and sauce. Your my help. Great job
Video quality has improved indeed. Had to come back to this goodie tonight. Thanks sir!
Hell Yaaasss Bigg Malcom!!! These are awesome!! Im in Los Angeles and i LOVE your channel. i'm making these tonight for the familia on the GMG grill, thank you for these amazing instructional BBQ videos. Jon
Just made these on my Traeger, holy sweet jesus did they ever turn out. The prep is a bit tedious but the results are unreal. Great beer drinking 2 bite appetizer; tender, moist and smoky. Well worth the effort, thanks Mac!!!
Yes, Malcolm I made these today and boy it is good I used Heath Riles rubs and it was good the butter set it over the top
Thanks for sharing Malcom, adding this to my things to do list.
Thank you I have used this video a few times and live making these
I used this recipe and they turned out fantastic. I did about 18, and it took a long time to prep. Those tendons are tricky and slippery, and sometimes the small bone does not want to break off near its base. I think the work was worth it, as I hate those dangling tendons on regular drumsticks.
Thanks! I'm trying this today!!
I made these yesterday. My daughter loved them. Great simple recipe thanks for sharing.
2020 and these are still 🔥🔥🔥🔥
i just received your seasoning i gotta say its the best thing i ever tried bbq sauce is on point as well
Another awesome recipe, this is the best BBQ channel online!
Few French cuisine tricks: If you take that rag and grab the tendons, you should be able to pull them out entirely instead of just cutting them off. That way it won't end up in the final product at all for easier eating. Another presentation thing would be to cut the knuckle of (which is easy with a big knife after cooking).
Hell yeah 10/2/2022 , made them today, thanks Malcolm, from Melbourne AUS
You are "The" BBQ pit master! Love all of your work and sauces. Keep the videos coming I'll try them all! I failed so many ribs and chicken and sadly my thanksgiving turkey, about sold me smoker and gave up. Then I found your channel and work and you gave me new hope and after buying your products and recipes on here it's turning around. I'm going to need to order your large size bags of season and gallon of sauce. After making the lollipops I had to use the whole 12 oz bottle to heat it up and then I couldn't use the rest. Keep up the great work, and maybe post so,e of your stores coupon codes on here to help us out with the sales. You got me as a customer for good. I appreciate your stores communication, the emails, the tracking, and emailing confirming I received the sauce. You go ore than beyond and I appreciate it. Thanks man! Keep on kickin it up.
I LOVE watching your UA-cam Channel! This Chicken Lollipop is something my husband had at a "shooting event" recently (only done with quail legs) and he asked me if I could research it. This is freakin awesome - I can't wait to try this out myself! Awesome job as usual! Thank You!
Trying these tonight on my BGE. Thanks VERY much for the video of the prep-work....very valuable.
I’ve watched your videos and noticed you leave out some very important information on most of your recipes. I like your competitive edge 👍 and don’t get me wrong I think your videos are awesome 👍
Malcom, you are the man! we've done your St Louis ribs and Carnitas and they were fabulous! Today it's Tri Tip but I can't wait to try these.
I made these for the family last night bloody awesome thank you.
I am LOLing at those chicken LOLipops. Definitely going to try them out, though.
I'm trying it this weekend , Thanks Malcom .
Malcom... Excellent instructional! Making them tomorrow, using your technique. You need your own network show!
Thanks Malcom I will do that, your youtube videos have helped me win some trophys and ribbons. I hope to meet you someday to say thanks in person. Keep on making videos the BBQ nation loves them!!!!!!
dave scheihing glad to hear it! Good luck out there getting more of those trophys.
Love this guy
what a grate way to get the kids to eat.. they go as fast as I can make them and never no left overs. but I must say I like them too.
Cooking these tonight on my Yoder YS640. Thanks for the idea and video!
Everybody loves these when I make them. Doing a huge batch tonight for dinner with the in-law family.
Yeah this channel deserves over 1 million subs very good barbecuing
Made these today Malcom they turned out great they taste fantastic ... of course using different rubs and sauces ....ty u sir they were pretty good
Malcom you're awesome man i'm gonna try this
Awesome. .trying this for sure
Looks good as always. Love your videos. Keep em coming.
I have never seen lollipop chicken before. Looks delicious.
Legendary, it’s 2024 I’m trying your recipe 🤟🏼👍🏻today
These are amazing! I made them last night the family loved them will be making them again.
My next fun dinner for the family, love the idea!
I made these today and the chicken turned out so tender. I used Stubbs sweet BBQ sauce for the glaze, which was OK, but I'll probably not use next time.
I just saw this style trending on whatever app thing, and then this pops up and I see you covered it 7 years ago. :) But this method you used is much much easier.
Mr. Reed this too is Mr.Reed of Denver, Colorado. Your You Tube "How To (s)" are a real god send and I wish you the best Sir.
Sam Reed Thanks Mr. Reed. Appreciate it.
This is an oldie.. but still a goodie
For sure a great success
So this was my first time making these. Followed your recipe, I must say they are awesome! You have a new subscriber sir!
I love this dude.
I like that the prep removes the inedible parts. I wonder how it would turn out for those of us without such a fancy grill.
Wow that video made me hungry. I can't wait to try your recipe.
Thanks trying these in 2024 💪🏾💪🏾
So creative! You’ve taught me so much, brother!
They look great. Good information on how to do this.
I love what your doing man awesome !
These were the best chicken I have had in a long long time.
I am a new subscriber and I do love the videos I have seen so far and I am hoping there will be plenty more to watch frequently , the only thing I would say and I am not trying to be rude is that , everyone seems to make videos with smokers and other things but ALWAYS neglect that a lot of people just have gas grills / common bbq's and we need to know the temperature to hold / use and time frame for our bbq and not just ... how many coals to use or what time on the smoker etc . We need the conversion of the temps and times for our gas grill and if there is a way to smoke and such on the gas grill adding that info helps , other than that ... LOVE the work you do brother .. great ideas , methods , skill , ingredients etc.
Great recipe!!
Glad I found you on UA-cam. This is good stuff.
I like the technique of making the lollipops. That is all I need to know.
Gosh your videos are awesome. I need to try this out. Thanks Malcom.
Malcolm rocks the chicken lollipops.
Looks incredible!
Oh man... I'm makin these this weekend on my UDS!
Well did you?
Very nice. I am going to have to try this!
Wow that looks delicious, I'm gonna try it. Thanks
Amazing recipe soo simple and delicious
great recipe thanks. You remind me of pepper belly Pete's videos
I tried this Sunday they were great thanks for the cool idea
Great video sir!!! You made one mistake...😂😂 the paper towel. That was a sick that sauce off your fingers moment!!! Gonna try it. Thx
I seen ppl try these with bacon wrapped as well. Looks great
Didn’t know the butter was necessary… and now I’m going to use butter from now on. This man is a legend.
Everything is better with butter. It's commonly used for smoking thighs, but no FoodTuber except Mr. Reed seems to do that step for the lollipops. That's why he's so awesome.
@@jackwest5123 what does the butter do? Add moisture?
@@ZeusMerk it does indeed keep them moist and it adds fat, which equals flavor.
Looks great, cant wait to try this. Thanks for sharing how to prep this as I always wondered how.
the trimming and prep was easier than you'd expect.
This is just great. Thanks for the very informative video.
I ordered bunch of seasoning and sauce. every time we have someone over they want to know how to get there bbq this good so I give them some of each now I have to order some more. The legs look great maybe I will do some this weekend while I still have some seasoning and sauce left.
Thanks for checking it out. The legs are worth a try!
Smart idea chef
Awesome as always Malcom! Looks good Brother.
thanks man
Plate me up! Those look outstanding.
So *that's* what a Frenched chicken bone should look like.

They were good but i think i like breast meat better.
I made these this past Sunday using some huge legs I got at my butcher, and I made Alabama White sauce, and they were so cute and delicious.
Malcolm, this lollipop Drumsticks looks delicious. What are the ingredients on the sauce
