I would say before for stew as otherwise the fat from the skin will be going in your stew.....

always before honey. goodluck!

no, take a thigh and peel using fingers. it comes off really easily.

it's only easy once you know how
for drumsticks, do the same peeling thing ,trying to turn the skin inside out, then when it gets down to the knobbly ankle bit, take some kitchenroll or a cloth to hold the skin and have the meat in your left hand, skin in your right and pull. it comes off in one piece then.
