SMOKED TURKEY LEGS [close to Disney Style]
The brine:
2 cups tender quick salt
1 cups brown sugar
2 tbsp. onion powder
2 tbsp. garlic powder
4 bay leaves
2 gallons water
4 turkey legs [totally submerged in brine]*
Sweet paprika
Mix all brine ingredients together in a non reactive container. Put the turkey legs in the brine and place the container in the refrigerator. Let stand for at least 48 hours.*
Remove legs from the brine and wipe them dry with paper towels. Rub the legs with a small amount of sweet paprika. Put legs in smoker and set temperature for 225 degrees F. Smoke for at least five hours.
*Large turkey legs will require 3 full days to be fully brined and flavored. Smoking time at 225 degrees F will be about 6 1/2 hours.
Turkey legs, thighs, and wings, chicken parts, pork ribs, and pork chops can also be cured and smoked this way. Adjust the smoke times for different meats.
