Hey Veeky Forums, do you all have a source on cooking times you can reliably trust. I can never find adequate instructions. I'm trying to cook 8 chicken drumsticks in the oven. I'm thinking 30 minutes at 400 degrees? Is that good ?

>not knowing how to tell by eye when a meat is ready
Your genes can cease to exist.

Get a thermometer and cook till 170F

otherwise cook until juices run clear when squeezed. Not that hard dude

Y'know, people can be just starting out and not know how to do stuff.

That said, OP, the best thing to do is to keep monitoring. After that, you start to get a feel for times.

Jesus, I thought this kind of faggotry was contained on /b/, /v/ and /pol/. You don't have to be such a co/ck/sucker about it bro.

bro just literally google "how do i bake chicken drumsticks?" and read a few of the responses to get an average. asking Veeky Forums anything other than their favorite fast food or candy bar will get you nowhere.

I've never been to this board before, I've been looking through the threads and it looks like a bunch of elitist fucks talking about food...
No different than Veeky Forums or Veeky Forums, Sad.

Why worry and fuss only to find out you over/undercooked those difficult drumsticks when you could have a chef properly prepare a meal for you like the Mcchicken, the best value fast food sandwich.

>do you all have a source on cooking times you can reliably trust.

Thermometer, user. Buy a cheapie walmart job and use it, and you'll always be good.

Regardless, when the meat starts to pull away from the bone, you know you're done, if not close.

30 minutes should be plenty for 8 drumsticks at 400, just make sure you check one to make sure it's done before you pull them all.

You're spot on. This board sucks ass. You have to sift through so much contrarian "is ____ a MEEEEME?" and unironic fast food threads to ever find anyone who posts something interesting.
