Smoked Turkey Legs in you pellet grill or smoker is easy to do and it tastes awesome. Theres nothing better than grabbing a smoked turkey leg and eating it caveman style… knaw away at that juicy, smoked turkey leg and it doesn’t get much better than that.
For this smoked turkey recipe, I kept it simple with a brine that is made up of:
16 cups of water
1 cup of salt
1 cup of sugar
1 cup of brown sugar
1 Bay Leaf
2 Tablespoons of your favorite smoked turkey rub
The turkey legs go in the brine for 24 hours.
For our smoker today, we are using our Pit Boss KC Combo Pellet Grill with the Competition Blend Pellets. You can use any kind of smoker for this, you just want indirect heat and to set it at 250 degrees Fahrenheit.
Cook your smoked Turkey Legs until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees and then I brushed on a little bit of BBQ Sauce that I thinned out with apple juice.
Put the Smoked Turkey Legs back in the pellet smoker for another 15 minutes and serve.
