More About This Product
What Makes BeLeaf's Drumsticks Different
Plant-based chicken alternatives are typically built on soy protein, wheat gluten (seitan), or pea-protein bases, each aiming to replicate the texture of real poultry. BeLeaf's drumsticks use a soy protein base (Non-GMO Textured Soybean Protein, Non-GMO Soybean Protein Powder, Pea Starch) formed around a sugar cane "bone" insert, giving each piece the familiar handheld shape and silhouette of a traditional drumstick — a presentation detail most boneless nugget- or tender-style alternatives can't offer. The product ships unbreaded, so kitchens apply their own sauces, rubs, or breading rather than working around a factory coating.
Per 2½ piece (100g) serving: 200 calories, 14g protein, 9g fat, 671mg sodium. Contains soy and wheat/gluten. Free from dairy, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, and peanuts. No cholesterol, no added MSG, no trans fat, no artificial flavors, no preservatives, Non-GMO.
Foodservice Specs & Ordering
BeLeaf drumsticks (item V011) ship 2 cases of 5 lbs per case (2 / 5 lbs), listed with Dot Foods under item number 770948 and UPC 850247008259.
BeLeaf drumsticks can be ordered a few ways, depending on volume:
- Truck delivery via broadline distributors — BeLeaf is integrated into the Dot Foods redistribution network, so operators working with Sysco, US Foods, PFG, or a regional distributor can add drumsticks to a standard order by referencing Dot item #770948.
- US Foods Direct (online, FedEx-shipped) — no volume minimum, making it a fast option for independent restaurants or first-time buyers.
- WebstaurantStore — available for direct online ordering by smaller foodservice and institutional buyers.
Product ships and is stored frozen; contact BeLeaf directly for current shelf-life specifications and the latest distributor codes.
Frying & Menu Applications
BeLeaf drumsticks arrive raw and frozen, ready for a quick fry (full instructions above): thaw overnight in the refrigerator, pat dry, and fry at 375°F for about 2 minutes until desired crispness.
- Buffet and banquet lines — the sugar cane "bone" gives each piece a recognizable, handheld presentation for carving stations and catering spreads
- Wing/drumstick baskets — toss in house sauces (buffalo, BBQ, Korean-style glaze) since the product ships unbreaded
- Family-style and event catering — a vegan centerpiece option alongside traditional chicken offerings
- Campus and institutional dining — an easy swap-in on rotating chicken-drumstick menu days
Because the product ships unbreaded, kitchens keep full control over seasoning and sauce pairing, dropping it into existing wing or drumstick fry-station workflows without adding a new prep process.
What is BeLeaf's plant-based drumstick made from?
BeLeaf's plant-based drumsticks are made with Non-GMO Textured Soybean Protein, Non-GMO Soybean Protein Powder, Pea Starch, and a sugar cane stick that forms the "bone," seasoned with brown sugar, sea salt, sunflower seed oil, and mushroom-based vegan seasoning.
Where can restaurants buy plant-based drumsticks wholesale?
Through Dot Foods broadline distributors (item #770948), including Sysco, US Foods, and PFG, through US Foods Direct for orders with no volume minimum, or directly via WebstaurantStore.
Is BeLeaf's plant-based drumstick gluten-free or soy-free?
No — BeLeaf's plant-based drumsticks contain both soy and wheat/gluten. They're free from dairy, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, and peanuts.
What's the best plant-based chicken drumstick for a foodservice menu?
An unbreaded, soy-protein-based drumstick like BeLeaf's works well for operators who want to control flavor with their own sauces and rubs, and who need an authentic handheld presentation for buffets, catering, and banquet service.
How do you cook BeLeaf's plant-based drumsticks?
Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, pat dry, and fry in oil heated to 375°F for about 2 minutes, or until the desired crispness is reached.
Does BeLeaf's plant-based drumstick have a bone?
It has a sugar cane "bone" insert, not an actual animal bone — this gives the product an authentic handheld drumstick shape and presentation for catering and buffet service.
