Steps:
- Prepare turkey: Dry the turkey legs with kitchen paper. Sprinkle them generously with salt, pepper, and sweet paprika powder.
- Brown: Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or another large, heavy-bottomed ovenproof dish. Brown the turkey drumsticks on all sides, about 3 minutes on each side.
- Simmer: Add 1 cup (250 ml) of the stock, cover the pan and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Preheat oven: In the meantime, preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit/ 200 degrees Celsius.
- Prepare vegetables: Clean and chop the vegetables. Whisk the tomato paste into the remaining chicken stock. Add the vegetables and tomato paste to the pot.
- Roast covered: Place the pot in the oven and roast for about 35-40 minutes. Baste the drumsticks with the cooking liquid twice while roasting. If necessary, add a bit more chicken stock.
- Roast uncovered for another 10 minutes to allow the skin to get crispy.
- Check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer; it should be 170 degrees Fahrenheit/ 77 degrees Celsius (Note 4).
- Rest meat: Transfer meat to a large platter and let rest for about 15 minutes. In the meantime, make the gravy.
- Remove about 1/3 of the vegetables from the pan and set them aside.
- Blend the remaining veggies and adjust the taste with salt and pepper if necessary.
- Return the reserved vegetables to the sauce, sprinkle with parsley, and serve.

Steps:
- For the turkey: Remove the tendons from each drumstick (or ask your local butcher to do it for you): With a flexible boning knife, make a cut at the knob end of the drumstick to separate the tendons from the bone. Locate the major tendon that resembles a cooked piece of fettuccini and follow it up the drumstick with your boning knife to cut it out. Repeat for the 3 to 4 other major tendons. Using a pair of pliers, grab and pull out the minor tendon that resembles a cooked piece of spaghetti. Repeat for the 5 to 6 other minor tendons. Scrape the boning knife against the bone to clean up any leftover meat.
- For the marinade: Place the cranberries, rosemary, sage, allspice, cloves, and cinnamon stick in a large plastic container and add 1 to 2 cups boiling water just to cover. Allow to steep for 10 to 15 minutes.
- For the brine: In a large bowl, dissolve the salt with 1 to 2 cups boiling water, whisking until the salt has dissolved.
- For the injection mixture: In a 16-ounce pint glass, combine the garlic juice, onion juice, hot sauce, chile sauce, Worcestershire sauce and stir. Fill the glass with beer and stir.
- Add the marinade mixture to the brine mixture, and then pour in the remaining beer to cool it down.
- Inject each drumstick a couple of times with the injection mixture using a meat injector. Place the drumsticks in the marinade and add 1 gallon cold water to cover. Refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat the smoker to 250 to 300 degrees F.
- Remove the drumsticks from the marinade and place in the smoker. Place the applewood chips in the smoker and smoke for 30 to 40 minutes. When they are done, they will have a light golden color and an internal temperature of 110 to 120 degrees F.
- Fill a turkey fryer with the peanut oil until it reaches the maximum capacity line. Light the burner and heat the oil until it is between 340 to 360 degrees F.
- Carefully drop each turkey drumstick into the oil and fry until the internal temperature of the drumstick registers 160 to 165 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oil and place on a paper towel on a wire cooling rack. Allow a resting time of 10 minutes before serving.

TURKEY DRUMSTICKS IN THE CROCK POT
The grocery here often has fresh turkey legs and they're very inexpensive. I make this recipe using 4 or 6, however many happen to be in the package. I then take the meat off the bone and use it in recipes that call for cooked chicken or turkey.

- Preheat the oven to 350 °F (177 °C). Before you do anything else, switch on your oven. Let it warm up to 350 °F (177 °C) while you prepare your drumsticks.
- Peel back the skin. Grip the skin near the bone and gently peel it toward the top of the drumstick. Don't pull it off entirely; just peel it back, so you can tuck butter and seasonings underneath.
- Rub 1 tablespoon (14 g) of butter over the meat of each drumstick. This will keep the meat moist while the drumsticks bake. For larger drumsticks, you can use up to 3 tablespoons (42 g) of butter.
- Season the turkey. With the skin still pulled down, sprinkle salt and pepper all over the turkey legs. For more flavor, try rubbing a tablespoon (about 2-4 g) of chopped herbs onto the buttered turkey meat while the skins are still pulled back.
- Pull the skin over the meat and rub it with butter. Stretch the skin back over the meat and rub another 1-3 tablespoons (14-42 g) of butter over the skin of the turkey.
- Sprinkle the skin with salt and pepper. Use a liberal amount of both salt and pepper to bring out the best in the turkey's flavor.
- Lay the turkey legs in a roasting pan. Use a pan large enough to easily hold all of the legs with no overlap. If you want to catch the drippings, use a metal roasting rack over a drip pan.
- Bake the turkey drumsticks for 90 minutes. Place them in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Turn them over and cook them for another 45 minutes. Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the meat.
- Let the meat rest for 15 minutes before serving. This gives the juices time to reabsorb into the flesh, making the meat juicy. Serve whole or remove the meat from the bone.
