Ingredients
  • 4 each turkey drumsticks
  • 4 ounces olive oil
  • Kosher Salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Coat each turkey leg with olive oil, salt and pepper.
  2. Follow the tips from the chef along with the video to get your smoker box set up and ready to go.
  3. On the other side of the grill, place the turkey legs next to the smoker box to cook using indirect heat.
  4. Place the remote cooking thermometer into the thickest and largest part of the turkey leg, making sure not to hit the bone.
  5. Cooking time will depend on how hot your grill temperature is and the size of the turkey legs. The turkey legs I used in this recipe were smaller, so it took around 1.5 hours total cooking until clear juices ran out and the internal temperature of the turkey leg reached 165 degrees. If you desire more color on the legs, you can even turn on the heat (direct cooking) to get a little more color on the turkey skin if desired.
  6. Note that the legs will continue to carry over cook a bit after you take them off the grill.
  7. To plate, place the beautiful turkey legs on butcher paper on a sheet tray for that primal feel and it will surely get your guests hungry for more!
