It also keeps the legs out of the drippings for crisper skin. <\/p>\n<p>No rack? Place them directly on foil and flip halfway through baking.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1748780574503\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Why is some chicken still pink when fully cooked?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">With previously frozen drumsticks, bone marrow can release pigment as it thaws and cooks. The meat may look pink, but it\u2019s safe if the internal temperature reaches at least 165\u00b0F.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1748815223321\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I use this recipe for frozen chicken legs?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">It\u2019s best not to. Baking from frozen causes uneven cooking \u2014 the outside can overcook before the inside is done, and the texture suffers. Thaw completely for safety and the best results.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1754939923256\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Why not stop cooking chicken legs at 165\u00b0F?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">While 165\u00b0F is safe, drumsticks will still be chewy and stringy at that point.
