As regular members of this forum know, I really like the smoked turkey legs they sell at WDW. They are a very healthy food. I like them so much that for several years now, I have smoked my own turkey legs at home. However, finding these large drumsticks in the market can be daunting and the time and work involved to properly brine and smoke them limits my ability to produce these treats. Well, if you too like these delectable drumsticks, I have found a new source for these poultry prizes. Wal-Mart!
Wal-Mart is now selling Pilgrim's Pride Smoked Drumsticks in their deli section. They cost $1.98 and they are every bit as good as the drumsticks sold in WDW. They heat these turkey legs up in their rotisserie ovens and then seal each leg into a plastic bag for sale. They then put them on a self service cart (under heat lamps) near the store entrance. I have been to 6 different Wal-Marts and they all had these for sale. I noticed too that these turkey legs sell very quickly. They will put about 24 to 36 legs out at a time and they are all sold within 20 to 30 minutes!
The taste and texture of these legs is great. The meat is moist and tender yet not greasy. The skin (not good for my dietary requirements) is easy to peel away and the dark red meat (from smoking) easily comes off the bone. While these legs are not quite as large as the WDW variety (supplied by Erlich Foods International), they are still excellent. If you are a turkey leg aficionado, you'll really enjoy these. I promise.
