A friend of mine just gave me a Wagner, a Griswold, a lodge skillet also a ribbed Goldcoast. The three skillets haven't been used in a really long time. There is a very hard substance on them that looks like rust forming under the seasoning. Is it necessary to completely reseason these skillets?
Fixing to warm the legs up for Thanksgiving Dinner. I could not have done it without the help from all you really nice guys, thanks you all so very much. I hope each and everyone of you and your families have one fantastic day.
The legs turned out great, I just had to sample one and they are great, not tough and tastes really good. Thanks for all the help, I will file all this information for next year if there is one.
Whew, finally all legs are at or slightly above 180 in all parts of the legs. My smoker is a mess, I didn't notice the pan that catches the drippings was too full, it is only an inch deep anyway.
I will rewarm in the morning in the bags in warm water about 140 degrees. Does this sound about right?
My smoker will get pretty high. I converted my Smokey Mt charcoal smoker to an electric with a household oven temp control a few years back, then insulated it and wrapped the total outside with aluminum. These legs look like they came off an Emu, I kid you not, they are huge. Had I known they...
That is a relief, I had wrapped the legs with tin foil and placed in a cooler, they are still hot to the touch so I returned them to the smoker still wrapped and will bring them back to 180 this time. They are supper juicy though.
Should I turn the smoker temps up or leave at 225?
It really...
I am smoking some really large turkey legs. I have taken 6 of the legs off the smoker at 170 degrees IT. When I pulled the temp probe out liquid spurted out, what has me concerned is the fluid looks a little pink. I am smoking at 225 degrees and they have been smoking for about 5 hours. I did...
Desertlites, you are a ray of sunshine, thank you for the encouragement. I hope to smoke them tomorrow along with the two large turkey breasts. I will let you know how they turn out.
This morning, I am warming up 5 large butts I have already processed and vacuum packed for one of our grandson's...
Man if it isn't one thing, it is another. I just read that the larger the turkey legs the tougher they are. If that is the case these are going to be like whit leather. Any suggestions how to tenderize them? Maybe foil wrap half way through cooking? I know ribs will be super falling off the bone...
Thank all of you so much, I am a happy camper now.
I just opened the packs of legs and what I thought were three per pack were two. I have never seen a turkey leg that big. Those turkeys had to weigh 50 pounds each. I had two legs from a 22 pound bird and they were every bit 1/3 the size of...
Thanks angry and brown, I really do appreciate your information.
Brown, the legs were frozen three to a pack. They are still in their orignal packing and this is the first time thawing them. That is a load off my mind. I sure don't want to make anyone sick. Thanks again to both of you, you...
I did a search and couldn't find anything on how to rewarm smoked turkey legs.
I put the legs in the fridge to thaw and it has taken a few days but they are now at 32.3 degrees. It is still 2 1/2 days until we will eat them. I am afraid to wait until Thursday morning to smoke them. The lower...
Fgignac, Chris and Keith , I can't thank you enough for putting my mind at ease, fantastic information and I really do appreciate it a lot. I usually put 5 or 6 charcoal brickets close to the heating element so they will light up and get the temps a boost to start with. I also put a 5 or 6 inch...
