RENAISSANCE FESTIVAL TURKEY LEGS
The title says it all. You can use any chicken seasoning, like McCormick Montreal Chicken Spice Grill Mates. I use a chicken barbecue spice rub that is local here. You can also replace the barbecue sauce with a grilling sauce like McCormick Mesquite Grilling Sauce Grill Mates. I just happen to prefer to use what I already have around. One more thing, it is probably best to finish the legs off in a smoker, but of course must of us only have a grill. You can always add wood chips to the grill and get the same effect. Either will do fine!

FESTIVAL AND THEME PARK TURKEY LEGS
We love the turkey legs they serve at the local Flea Market, the Colorado Rennaissance Festival and at our theme parks, so we sought out the recipe and now use this excellent version to indulge in that tasty finger [hand] food.This is supposedly the authentic recipe used by turkey leg vendors at fairs and festivals. Boiling the turkey legs first may seem like cheating but if you have to make thousands of them to sell you don't want to have them sitting on your grill for 20 to 30 minutes before you sell them. Original recipe from the About.com website. For easy serving, after grilling, wrap the bottom end of the legs in aluminum foil and a napkin or paper towel to make a great "holder".
