Default sticky e-brake

every time i let off the brake i hear a sqeak coming from the rear drums, and it only happens when i let the e-brake off, when i pull it up i get no sqeak, so im pretty sure my e-brake is sticking, now how do i go about fixing it, can i just jack up my car and yank on the cable while applying lots of grease or do i have to take the drum apart?

So when your e-brake is applied no noise and when you just un apply it you get a noise ? If so it sounds like your shoes in the back are not letting go all the way.

That sounds about right. You could try putting some grease on backing plate.
