Recipe
Step 1:In a pot combine..
- 4C water
- 1/4C sugar
- 1/4C brown sugar
- 1/4C kosher salt
- 1-1/2t seasoning (we like Canada's own CattleBoyz Smokin' and Grillin' Rub or their Smokey Southwest Seasoning & Rub)
Bring to a boil then let cool.
Step 2:
Put 2-4 turkey legs in the brine and store in the fridge for 6+ hours.
Step 3:
Pat drumsticks dry, put a seasoning rub on them (we used CattleBoyz here again)
Step 4:
BBQ on med-low heat for approx. 45 minutes - 1 hour 15 minutes. Or BBQ med-high with the drums wrapped in foil. As drum sizes can vary, it’s always best to check doneness by ensuring the internal temperature has reached 165F (74C) using a digital thermometer.
Looking to feed a crowd? Just double or triple the brine and you are good to go!
Family Thoughts:
Everyone loves these huge drumsticks. They taste great, are fun to eat and hold, fun party food and summer BBQ's.
