Hi all.
Had some friends round at the weekend so did the usual pork shoulder, lamb shoulder, pork cheeks and ribs.
As I was doing the weekly shop the week before,I had noticed turkey drumsticks for £2 each so got one.
Looked online and everyone was saying it had to be brined overnight. To be honest didn't have the time or inclination, so on Saturday morning, stabbed the drumstick a few times and rubbed pepper and salt all over pushing some into the holes I had made.
Stuck it on the smoker at 09:30 then at 13:00 sprayed with orange juice ( run out of apple ) wrapped in foil and stuck in the kitchen oven (gas mark 1).
Taken out about 17:30 and the meat literally fell off the bone. It had fantastic flavour, texture taste and smell and was super moist.
Amazing amount of meat for the size of leg.
Thoroughly recommend to all to give it a go if you haven't already.
Cheers
Colin
