  • Every backyard Pit Master needs to know how to smoke turkey legs (drumsticks) in their smoker. Smoked Turkey legs, when smoked properly are very juicy and flavorful. Subscribe: / @weekendwarriorbbq
    I'm using my Pit Boss Pellet Smoker today to smoke these turkey legs but you can use any kind of smoker. I like to smoke them at 250 degrees F because this gives them enough time to absorb some good smoke flavor and allows the skin to firm up.
    I brine all of my smoked turkey overnight with my tried and true turkey brine.
    Here are the links to the turkey brine and the brine bucket. Order them today. They always sell out quickly.

    Oh man those turkey legs looked amazing! That brine is awesome and I gotta check out that rub. My Ace hardware store has some many rubs and spices. Fit for a king Mike! Nicely done brother! Cheers!

    Mike I’m glad you made this video because I just love Turkey legs!😋
    I noticed how beautiful your yard looks and the tomato plants, did you create this landscape? If so you are the master!

    You did a video with the pecan rub on a pork loin. I tried it and it’s the bomb bro! It’s my new fav rub.

    I would love to try this, but, Amazon says $42 for the briner [plastic bucket] and $27 for the brine [2 uses], at that price you may want to add a crack pipe to your shopping list!

    Good god I’m trying this! Wont even wait for Canadian thanksgiving. Those look amazing. When you say ‘cooking spray’ for the rub to stick, you’re talking about simply a standard non-stick spray? Thanks for posting. 🇨🇦🦃

      @WeekendWarriorBBQ  Рік тому +1

      I always post my smoked turkey videos early for our Canadian friends. Any non-stick cooking spray will do. In this video I used Pam but use whatever you can find locally

    Great video. Have you ever used duck fat spray as a binder and to help crisp up the skin?

    • @WeekendWarriorBBQ
      @WeekendWarriorBBQ  Рік тому

      Duck fat makes an excellent binder.

    Mike! Any thoughts on horizontal pellet grills?

    • @WeekendWarriorBBQ
      @WeekendWarriorBBQ  Рік тому

      Hi Steve. They work just as good and you can grill on them too. The reason I chose the vertical is it takes up less space and it holds a lot more pellets.

    Why not let the dirty smoke clear before you put them in, why not a pre heated smoker?
