Start with chicken drumettes, which are the drumstick-like parts of the chicken wings, not the larger wing section.
With a paring knife, start just up from the base of the skinny end and work around the bone in a circle, cutting the meat all the way through to the bone with a sawing motion. Holding onto the bottom end firmly, pull the meat upwards on the bone, stripping the meat from the bone until it gathers into a ball at the top, turning it inside out as you do this.
To remove any remaining meat from the bottom of the bone, either scrape it clean with your paring knife, or use a large, sharp knife to remove the end of the bone entirely with one quick downward cut.
