Memphis-Style Turkey Legs - Alton Brown

Recipe #303511 | 2¼ hours | 10 min prep | add private note

I've yet to cook turkey legs. They're so inexpensive---I've got to try them soon. This recipe in Alton Brown's "Feasting On Asphalt - The River Run," was inspired by a dish at Melanie's Soul Food in north Memphis.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  2. 2
    Place the legs in a 13x9-inch baking pan and sprinkle with the seasoned salt.
  3. 3
    Pour 1 cup of water into the bottom of the pan and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 1 hour.
  4. 4
    After 1 hour, gently uncover the pan and turn the legs over. Continue to bake for another hour.
  5. 5
    Remove from the oven and drain off any remaining water.
  6. 6
    Combine the barbecue sauce, brown sugar, and lemon juice in a medium saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and glaze the turkey legs with the sauce.
