Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 turkey legs
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Dry Rub, recipe follows
Mop, recipe follows
Your favorite BBQ sauce, as needed, (recommended: North of the Border Chipotle BBQ Sauce)
1/4 cup chipotle seasoning, (recommended: North of the Border Chipotle Seasoning)
1 to 2 tablespoons mild dried ground red chili or paprika
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon BBQ sauce, (recommended: North of the Border Chipotle Barbecue Sauce)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Several hours before planning on barbecuing, loosen the skin on the turkey legs by running your fingers under it as far as possible without tearing the skin.
  • Combine the Worcestershire sauce and the oil. Coat your fingers with the mixture and rub really well into the turkey legs, getting as much as you can under the skin. Sprinkle the Dry Rub over the skin, liberally rubbing into the turkey legs and under the skin. Place the legs in plastic bags and refrigerate.
  • Prepare the smoker for barbecuing, bringing the temperature to 200 to 220 degrees F. Remove the turkey legs from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  • Re-warm the mop mixture over low heat.
  • Transfer the turkey legs to the smoker. Cook until the legs are very tender and the juices run clear, about 3 1/2 to 4 hours. Mop the legs at 45-minute intervals in a wood-burning pit, or as appropriate for your style of smoker. Serve the legs hot, to be eaten with your fingers, with a side of barbecue sauce.
  • Mix ingredients together in a small bowl.
  • Combine the mop ingredients in a small saucepan and warm the mixture over low heat.

Time 2h15m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 stalks celery stalks, cut in thirds
3 turkey legs
6 tablespoons butter
salt to taste
½ cup water, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Rinse the turkey legs and pat dry.
  • Stand the turkey legs upright (as if the turkey were standing). Press a knife downward into the deep tissue, creating 2 or 3 long pockets. Press a piece of celery into each opening. Pull back the skin on the legs, rub with butter, and season with a little salt. Put the skin back into place, rub with more butter, and season lightly with salt. Lay the legs in a roasting pan.
  • Roast uncovered for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until the legs are golden brown and the internal temperature is 180 degrees F (82 degrees C) when taken with a meat thermometer. Add more water if needed while roasting, and baste occasionally with the juices or butter.

JERK TURKEY



Jerk Turkey image

I recommend wearing rubber gloves when handling Scotch bonnet peppers. The marinade recipe works well with chicken and Cornish hens too. Simply cut the recipe by two thirds for 1 large chicken or 2 Cornish hens.

COUNTY FAIR TURKEY LEGS WITH SWEET AND SPICY BBQ SAUCE



County Fair Turkey Legs with Sweet and Spicy BBQ Sauce image

Turkey legs are a traditional snack at county fairs. They are also known as "caveman pops" because they are held by the bone and eaten like huge lollipops. Ree likes hers with a sweet and spicy BBQ sauce which, although not traditional, makes a delicious accompaniment to this meaty snack, and a great addition if you are serving these at a party.
