Recipe and cooking method please

Just 2 turkey legs seasoned with a Memphis style BBQ rub. Smoked them for about 4 hours at about 275⁰F using apple wood chunks and charcoal in my side-smoker.

Were they tough at all like the ones you get from amusement parks or ren fairs?

Not tough at all, I pulled them right at 165⁰F, so they're still nice and moist

No brine?

No, I thought about it, but got sidetracked yesterday and missed my window, so I just quick seasoned them before smoking

Is it yummy? I haven’t tried turkey cooked like that

It was deliscious! It was my first time smoking anything but pork or beef. It won't be the last!

Wow nice! I’ll try that when I get the chance. Thanks for sharing!
