Recommended Videoⓘ Grilled Turkey: Another White MeatWhen it comes to food, turkey is not just another version of chicken-despite both types of meat being poultry. One benefit with turkey meat is that it tends to be bigger than what you’d get from chicken, meaning you get more meat from the same cuts. Hence why you see grilled turkey legs being sold at places like Disney World and Renaissance festivals, rather than chicken legs. When properly cooked, turkey can truly excel in flavor, but any sort of quick cooking, like the kind done in a stir fry, is likely to turn out poorly. Texturally speaking, the relatively larger size of a turkey means that individual cuts may have a tad more stringiness to them, hence why slow-cooking it tends to yield better results. In terms of flavor, turkey tends to contain proportionately more dark meat than chicken, meaning that it has a comparatively deeper and richer taste. A Step-By-Step Guide to Grilled Turkey LegsTurkey is just like any dish with chicken-there are dozens of ways to go about the same basic recipe. Provided below are several recipes for turkey legs, including at least one turkey leg brine recipe, as well as advice on seasoning and how to marinate turkey legs.

In ConclusionGrilled turkey legs are not exactly a complicated thing to serve friends and family. Just think of them as amped up chicken legs that offer more than enough mass to benefit from the wealth of flavor bestowed by either a brine or marinade. While this article featured four approaches, nothing is wrong with using them as inspiration for a recipe that is uniquely yours. How long does it take to cook a turkey on a charcoal grill?Using a meat thermometer, cook turkey to internal temperature of 180° F in thigh and 170° F in breast. 10 to 16 lb. turkeys will take 2 to 3 hours to grill. When done, remove and let stand for 15 minutes before carving.
How long do you smoke turkey legs on the grill?Lay the turkey legs directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and smoke until the internal temperature reaches 165℉ and the turkey legs are deeply browned, 4-5 hours.
Do you wrap turkey legs in foil when grilling?Wrap each drumstick and 1/4 cup marinade in heavy-duty aluminum foil. Grill, covered with grill lid, over medium heat (300° to 350°) about 1 hour, turning turkey after 30 minutes. Remove foil, reserving marinade.
Can you grill a turkey on a charcoal grill?First, you will need to set up your grill for indirect cooking. For smoking a turkey on a grill, we like to arrange the coals in a circle around the exterior of the grill, leaving a space in the center without coals where we can put a pan to catch any juices that drip from the bird. The bird will go over this pan.
