Turkey Leg Pot Roast Recipes

SLOW COOKER TURKEY LEGS

Steps:

• Wash the turkey legs, and shake off excess moisture. Sprinkle each turkey leg with about 1/2 teaspoon of poultry seasoning, salt, and black pepper to taste. Wrap the leg tightly in aluminum foil. Repeat with remaining legs.
• Place the wrapped turkey legs into a slow cooker with no liquids or other ingredients. Set the cooker to Low, and cook until the meat is very tender, 7 to 8 hours.

ROASTED TURKEY LEGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Rinse the turkey legs and pat dry.
• Stand the turkey legs upright (as if the turkey were standing). Press a knife downward into the deep tissue, creating 2 or 3 long pockets. Press a piece of celery into each opening. Pull back the skin on the legs, rub with butter, and season with a little salt. Put the skin back into place, rub with more butter, and season lightly with salt. Lay the legs in a roasting pan.
• Roast uncovered for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until the legs are golden brown and the internal temperature is 180 degrees F (82 degrees C) when taken with a meat thermometer. Add more water if needed while roasting, and baste occasionally with the juices or butter.

• Transfer To Oven: Transfer the turkey legs to a greased baking pan, skin side down and transfer to the preheated oven.

ROASTED TURKEY LEGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Fit a rimmed roasting pan with a roasting rack and spray the rack with avocado oil spray.
• Pat the turkey legs dry with paper towels. Brush them all over with melted butter and rub with the seasoning mix. Place on the roasting rack and lightly spray with avocado oil.
• Roast, uncovered, for 20 minutes, until the skin is browned.
• Loosely cover with foil, to avoid scorching the top, and continue roasting until the juices run clear when pierced with a fork and an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees F (make sure it isn't touching the bone), about 30 more minutes.
• Remove the turkey legs from the oven and allow them to rest, still covered in foil, for 10 minutes before serving. Do not skip this step - it allows the internal temperature to climb a bit more, and the juices to redistribute and settle.

TURKEY LEG POT ROAST

Steps:

• In a greased 5-qt. slow cooker, combine the first six ingredients. Place drumsticks over vegetables. Sprinkle with the seasoned salt, thyme, parsley and pepper. Cover and cook on low for 5 to 5-1/2 hours or until turkey is tender. If desired, top with chopped fresh parsley just before serving.

TURKEY LEG RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut the skin and the thin bones at the bottom of the joint around the bone.
• Then pierce through the tight and cut along the bone on all four sides.
• Cut the remaining thin bones and separate the meat from the bone. If a sharp knife isn't available use a pair of scissors to cut through the thin bones.
• Cut the meat up into smaller pieces for quicker cooking.
• Pour oil into a frying pan and on high heat braise the legs until at least one side gets golden brown.
• Add the onion, garlic, parsley and the black pepper then mix them well with the meat.
• When the onion gets a translucent / glassy look add the mustard, water and turn the heat down to medium low.
• Cook it under lid until the meat gets tender enough for about 20 to 40 minutes depending of the chunks of the meat. The smaller the cuts the quicker it cooks. We are after a fairly thick and tasty stew here so the water doesn't need to be replaced. Nonetheless make sure the onion has enough liquid and stir it once in a while to avoid burning it black.

POT ROASTED TURKEY LEGS OR WINGS

Steps:

• Ingredient amounts are any amount you wish to use.
• This is a method more than a recipe since the amounts you use will depend upon how many you are serving and whether you want to have turkey to freeze for future casseroles/salads.
• Generally speaking, roast 6 legs/wings at a time, usually enough for supper and lots left for freezing Ask your butcher to cut the turkey legs crosswise for you, dividing each one of them into three pieces, a bony part at the bottom which is saved for broth making and two equal portions from the fleshy part of the leg.
• Place the fleshy parts of the legs in an uncovered roaster, and bake at 375 degrees for 1 hour.
• Sprinkle the legs with sage, salt and pepper, add water to roaster, cover and bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour.
• Remove the roaster from the oven, add the potatoes, onions and carrots, sprinkle them with salt and pepper, cover roaster and roast for another hour or until veggies are tender.
• (Those troublesome tendons in the turkey legs which cause so much trouble are very easy to remove after the meat is tender.) Serve the turkey and veggies, counting exchanges for the portion used.
• After the unused turkey is cool enough to handle, remove the meat from the bones and freeze in portions to use for future casseroles or salads.
• Calculate the exchanges used according the the amount used.
• Low sodium diets- omit salt.
• low cholesterol diets, may be used as is.
