- Опубліковано 24 сер 2024
- Have you ever seen folks at theme parks walking around chowing down on huge turkey drumsticks, and thought! I want one of those? Please allow me to show you how to make some! All you need is:
2 large turkey drumsticks
1 teaspoon of pink curing salt
2 teaspoons of kosher salt (non-iodized salt)
3 tablespoons of brown sugar
1 cup of warm water.
Mix all these ingredients and brine the turkey overnight in the fridge.
The next day fire up your smoker, rinse the meat off and dry with a paper towel. and smoke them until you reach an internal temperature of 165-170 degrees. Grab a beer and chow down!
I never thought about curing turkey legs? I'll have to try that out! Those legs looked some kinda fine Sal. And that beer looked very refreshing! Cheers to ya brother and Rock On!!!
That beer was awesome! Thanks for stopping by T-Roy!
You said, I can’t wait to taste this.
I just went ahead and licked the screen.
I ordered 6 cases of Turkey Legs to make for my high school students for Thanksgiving next week. Cheers!
LOL! Glad you liked it! Rock On!
PortCanon where do you order the turkey legs from ?
Tee Dawg, Last year I ordered from Publix and went to the trouble of brining, curing, smoking. They were good, but very challenging to work with that much raw poultry at one time.
This year, I ordered pre-smoked drumsticks from the Neighborhood Market. I brought my smoker to school and let them slow cook for another 3-4 hours till they were fall off the bone tender. The drums averaged 2 pounds a piece. Almost everyone shared or took some home.
Happy Thanksgiving! 🍁
I love love love Disney Turkey legs. Fantastic recipe, now i can make them at home !
You da man Kelvin! Rock On!
You hit it on the head......Just Like Ham! Not only are they great to chow down on.......but awesome used in soups and southern style collard recipes.
Hey........We missed the smoking process where you spayed them with cold water! Thanks for the mention! You deserve a Beer! See what I can do? Rock On! \m/

I have been smoking turkey like that since I was a kid. That was the 2nd thing that my grandfather taught me to smoke, "just like in the old country" he used to say. Only difference, I cure for a couple of days. It sure is good stuff. Nicely done.
RTFO!!! GB
Oh my gawd, they looked beautiful, Sal! Wow. Tastes like ham, I bet it tastes better than ham! That pink curing salt does add a wonderful level of flavor. Thanks for sharing!
It really is a treat. Now I know what all the fuss is about. Thanks for watching John!
Great job as always sal they look awesome keep up the great work bro!!
Thanks Gary! Rock On!
Nice
Heck yea brother this one is awesome I've been wanting to do this myself.. That cure is what's gives it that "hammy look and taste which is that "Disney leg flavor" Excellent video Sal!
Best tasting turkey ever! Thanks Jaxx! Rock On!
Just ran across you & tried it out and you are spot on! 👍
Excellent! Thanmk you!
Nice color! Great looking legs sir! Lol. I'm trying that bacon jam this weekend! Thanks for sharing
You are going to fall in Bacon Love! Rock on Noob!
Lager is my go to - so inam sure i would have liked it
The drumsticks looks great too. I think i need to get some next week. We are traveling south, and there is a turkey industry close to where we have our place :)
They are cheap! And if you cure and smoke them they are awesome! Thanks Lars!
I'm SALivating here bro. I'm def gonna do this and soon. Will keep you posted. That beer sounded awesome too. I agree, never had a bad Stone beer. Even the ones marked down close to expiry are excellent. Cheers mate.
World class Lager! Salivating. I see what you did there! Rock On Vic!
Dang Sal.. lol That looked good.. I've never done Turkey legs in a brine like that but your right it looked like ham. Very interesting it tasted like it too. Awesome video
It's real easy to do! You need t give it a try! Rock On Joe!
Doing this tonight what was the temp and cooking time . Was not mentioned. ty
The Pit Barrel runs at about 265-285 degrees and it took 2 1/2 hours to get the turkey up to an internal temp os 175 degrees. The only temp that is inportant here is the internal temp of the meat but if yu want a good smoke flavor use a smoker and go for at least 2 hours.
Good job Sal. My bride loves turkey legs. Maybe she has the ingredients for me to try these.
You really have to make this for her then! Rock On Oren!
Lookin good Sal!
Thank you Tom! Rock On!
I'm not cool enough to have ever seen Disney, but being from Texas, I've had some of the most humongous turkey legs ever seen! I love em' slow smoked to come right off the bone, and then wrapped in bacon and deep fried quickly, and then dipped in Dr. Pepper wing sauce. haha.
OMG it does look like ham! YES! ham of the turkey! Just need a giant roast elotes (corn, mayo, chili, limon, etc) with that...damn!
It's good stuff, Aaron! Wrapped in bacon, they call that a Swanson after some TV character. Thanks for watching!
You just made some Turkey Ham or something. It does look very good! Okay, you know I always have wanted a PBC like you used there. I bought a trash can cooker called the Po' Man Charcoal Grill.... Today I gave it a burn to burn off any bad oils etc. I will cook on it soon. It is smaller and trashier, but so am I.
You got to do what you got to do! Can't wait to see what you cook! You Rock Michael!
Omg how delicious 😍😍😍
Thanks Angie! It's food you can walk around with ! Rock On Fit Lady!
Looks mighty fine Sal gonna try some on the Lang hope they look as good as yours Bro🦃🦃🦃👍👍👍
Going to be great! Thanks for watching!
Meathead (From amazingribs.com) tested the ways to get smoke to adhere to a surface and by comparison cold and wet attracted the most smoke. I thought it would have been the oil because it is sticky, but no.
My buddy Ken ( Heavy Metal BBQ) always says"Smoke sticks to cold wet meat" It's his mantra.
He says he patted dry , did he rinse it before drying ? I didn't because he didn't say to. It's in the oven right now.
I did rinse them. Sorry I didn't make that clear. Hope it turned out ok for you!
@@rootboycooks they did, thank you! Gonna try these again, but they are frozen, so hopefully will turn out just as good ! Happy new year !
What was the smoker temp to get those fine looking legs to look so good.
I used the Pit Barrel Cooker and it runs at around 275 degrees. This took 3 hours. Thanks for watching!
Betcha that's a heck of a lot cheaper than those Disney drumsticks, too!
6$ for the meat and pennies for the cure! should say so! Rock On EW!
Love Disney drumsticks, I have never thought about making them! New subscriber, would love to stay connected, we have a cooking channel too!
This was on my bucket list. It's really easy! Rock on!
How long was overnight?
Approxamatly 16 hours.
Why does it require so much salt? Any alternatives that would work for taste? Just curious? Maybe there is no way around it but if there is would like to know. Thanks!
I didn't think the salt was excessive, it has to cure t get that color.
The Root Boy Cooks !
So it’s more about the color for the salt purpose? It did seem like a lot of salt for a couple of drum sticks that one or two people would consume. Not use to smoking or cooking turkey legs so this is more out of curiosity opposed to anything else. Just curious man, love the vids and the channel by the way.
Brooks Norris “Curing is any of various food preservation and flavoring processes of foods such as meat, fish and vegetables, by the addition of salt, with the aim of drawing moisture out of the food by the process of osmosis. Because curing increases the solute concentration in the food and hence decreases its water potential, the food becomes inhospitable for the microbe growth that causes food spoilage.” The salt is needed for the process. I’m not reading too deep on wiki tonight but I reckon it’s like reverse osmosis. That reduction in water content may also play a role in the texture of the meat making it easier to hold the bone and gnaw on, as opposed to a traditional turkey drumstick, that it cooked slowly, tends to fall off the bone.
Looks great but u left out all the steps and details for rookies....
Which part?
We ordered some from a very high end smoke house once. They were ok, but they didn't look as good yours, they didnt taste very smoky like a ham, and they weren't nice and juicy like yours. You've got the touch, Sal. You should open a restaurant. God bless, T
A resturant is like being married to two wives! Thank Theresa! Rock On!
You had Mr SG Jr guy glued to the screen (as well as MY undivided attention)! Yep, we've had Turkey stems at Disneyland (Anaheim) on 2 occasions. I *know* what all the shoutin's about! 😄
I never had one, so this is a bucket list cook for me.It was fun and economical.Thanks for watching Mr. Smokey Goodness man and thank Levi for me as well!
Would this work with an electric smoker?! Looks so good
I believe it would. Let me know if it works out!
The Root Boy Cooks ! Thanks! Will do! I think the secret is the pink salt! Thanks again
Also how do I get one of those beer mugs?? :)
Only two exsist! My cousin gave me one and Booger 500us gave me the other!
Danger, danger when you taste brown sugar
How come it tastes so good? Rock On Charles!
Nope wrong song.
