FESTIVAL AND THEME PARK TURKEY LEGS



Festival and Theme Park Turkey Legs image

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".

Turkey and Chicken Legs with Medieval Marinade image

Provided by Sandra Lee

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 turkey legs
4 chicken legs
1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons applewood rub (recommended: McCormick)
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 cup frozen chopped onions, thawed
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 bunch fresh parsley, leaves picked, for garnish

Steps:

  • Put the turkey and chicken legs into a large resealable plastic bag.
  • In a large bowl, combine the tomato paste, olive oil, chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, applewood rub, apple cider vinegar, onions, and garlic, and whisk them together until blended. Pour the marinade into the resealable bag over the turkey and chicken legs. Seal the bag and put it into a large bowl. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or as long as overnight.
  • Preheat 1 side of a grill over medium heat. Remove the turkey and chicken legs from the marinade, shaking off the excess, and set aside.
  • Put the marinade into a small pot and cook over low heat, until reduced by half.
  • Grill the chicken legs over direct heat for 5 minutes per side with the lid closed. After 10 minutes grill them over indirect heat for another 10 to 15 minutes. Grill the turkey legs for 20 to 25 minutes with the lid closed. Brush on the reduced marinade every 5 minutes until the legs are cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 175 degrees F. on an instant-read thermometer. Hold the chicken legs on the coolest part of the grill or in an oven at 200 degrees F while the turkey finishes cooking.
  • Arrange the chicken and turkey on a serving platter and garnish with fresh parsley.

RENAISSANCE FESTIVAL TURKEY LEGS



Renaissance Festival Turkey Legs image

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!

  • Combine all of the ingredients for the brine in a large pot and bring to a boil. Let cool. if you're short on time, you can also start by boiling the brine with just 2 quarts of water and then adding ice to cool to 1 gallon of brine.
  • While that's happening, rinse your turkey legs and set aside in a large container (one that will fit into your refrigerator). You may want to use two separate containers. When the brine has cooled, pour the brine over the turkey legs, making sure they are totally submerged. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • If you want to expedite the process, use a marinade injector, injecting one syringe-full of brine into each turkey leg (1½ syringe-fulls for the larger turkey legs). Then, let brine as usual for 5-6 hours. This way, the turkey legs don't need to brine overnight. Sounds gruesome, but it really expedites the process, and these marinade injectors are pretty inexpensive!
  • When the turkey legs are ready, heat your charcoal. Your key tools for this recipe are a charcoal grill, a chimney starter, charcoal, and wet wood chips, which provides the smoky flavor. Fill your chimney with charcoal and light the coals with a piece of newspaper. Let heat for a solid 15-20 minutes or so--until the coals are slightly white hot. Also, take 1-2 handfuls of wood chips and soak them in water while the coals are heating.

  • Place the turkey drumsticks, Dr Pepper and chiles in a large pot. Cover and brine in the refrigerator for 8 hours. Remove the turkey drumsticks from the brine and pat dry. Let the drumsticks stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Put the apple cider in a spray bottle for basting.
  • Light a hardwood charcoal or wood fire in the firebox of a smoker. Heat the smoker to 250°. Scatter some of the soaked wood chips around the coals; the chips should smolder but not flare. Set a drip pan filled with water on the bottom of the smoke box. Set the drumsticks over the drip pan. Smoke the drumsticks, spraying and basting every 30 minutes with the apple cider, for 5 to 6 hours, or until the juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the drumstick registers 165°. Let the drumsticks rest for 20 minutes before serving.
