Tried one more thing.
I have never brined anything
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
1st time Turkey legs
I let them soak for 24 hrs
Pat dry get the egg upto 220 and put them on
about 3 hrs later Done
Tasted just like the ones you get at a fair or disneyworld. :0074
My plan for Thanksgiving is to cut up the FREE Turkey you always get when you buy a Ham from the grocery store and smoke the the breast on T_day. Then take the rest of the parts wings, thighs and drumbsticks and smoke them them a few days before.
