I haven't tried this one yet, I'm putting it here for safe-keeping. Looks good, and interesting, and would be good to do when turkey parts go on sale. This recipe is from B.J.'s Market & Bakery in Chicago.

this was ok. I was expecting something different like the picture I guess. it seems like the cooking time is way to long that is almost 2 hours for some wings! I also thought there is too much liquid in the sauce. My wings were a little dry and the sauce didn't stick to them at all since it was so thin. Maybe i will just try again without sauce next time.

    This recipe looked great. I changed around the recipe a little by adding about a tablespoon of jerk seasoning on the wings. To the sauce, I substituted 2 diced cloves of garlic for the celery and didn't add the milk and flour. It still came out great. My husband and kids loved it.

    Hey Jude! This recipe for Smothered Turkey Wings was really, really tasty and a hit on my Christmas Dinner Table!! I did not need to make the sauce because I used Reynolds Oven Bags with 1/2 cup of Fat-Free Chicken Broth in the bag and the wings made sooo much tasty gravy!! The spices were a perfect blend and flouring the wings prior to placing the wings in the bag with the broth gave the wings a nice golden brown color, infused the wings with so much flavor and made it's own gravy! Besides not making the sauce, I used Morton's Nature's Seasoning Salt in place of regular salt and baked for 1 hour, 15 minutes. Hey Jude, the Turkey Wings were tender, falling off the bone and Delicious!!!

    Excellent. The sauce tasted like mushroom soup without the mushrooms which was thumbs up from DD who dislikes fungi. We used the wings, thighs and legs of a 16lb turkey. We actually had this for our lunch on thanksgiving as hot sandwiches then later had the breasts with the rest of the usual thanksgiving trimmings. Will definitely do the recipe again but next time will drain off most of the fat from the roast pan before adding the sauce. I am just adding another comment - today I was having leftovers and perhaps the amount of liquid (chicken broth and milk) should be less for a thicker gravy like sauce. Adjust accordingly to please oneself. Still a fab dish.
