eyeguy 54 Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 I'll warn the guys blb. I smoke them around 230 to 240 till they hit 175 then I let them rest. thirdeyes recipe. turkey drumsticks 1 gallon water 2/3 to 3/4 cup of Morton's kosher salt 2 tablespoons Morton's TenderQuick 1/2 of an onion, sliced several cloves of garlic, sliced handfull of brown sugar cracked pepper or pepper blend peppercorns dissolve the salt, sugar and Tenderquick in the water. Add onion, garlic and pepper. Submerge and brine drumsticks in a non-reactive container for at least 12 hours and up to two or three days, refrigerated. The longer the time, the more pronounced the flavor and texture change from the curing agent. The longer cure will also result in a saltier finished product. Following brining, rinse and soak in cold water for 1 to 3 hours. Dry off and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, overnight is better. for these 4 big legs I doubled everything and put 2 gallons in my brine bucket.
