That Turkey Leg!

[real mad hatter]

Ok,I've tried lots of foodie favourites that Disney fans have had but yet to indulge in the famous turkey leg.My question is do you like it or not?:shrug:It looks huge,no way do we have turkeys that size in Scotland.So is it a must at least once on a Disney vacation?:wave:

 

[WDWmazprty]

It's usually a love it or hate it decision. I love 'em! They're great to have with a beer.

 

[ddbowdoin]

ah, it's one of those things I ALWAYS talk about, ALWAYS order, and essentially ALWAYS dislike. It's oddly smoked, pinkish... and pretty far from what we know of turkey, when we think of it in terms of a thanksgiving dinner. Alas, I'll continue to partake at least one a trip... go figure!

 

[jlevis]

This is a must do on our upcoming trip. Smoked turkey is great! It will be my birthday present to myself!!! :sohappy:

It looks huge,no way do we have turkeys that size in Scotland.

We don't either. The "turkey" legs actually come from guests who think "keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times" is a suggestion instead of a requirement.

Never tried one, never will! Too grisly and fatty for me! Doesn't even look appetising to me either. :hurl:

Lol.

Really? So, no fried chicken for you? :slurp:

 

[unkadug]

oops

 

[LuLaSue]

Count me out unless they make a meatless turkeyleg...

 

[Phonedave]

I like the taste, but they are horribly huge (I can eat one, trust me, I just don't need that many calories and I feel bad throwing it away).

They are also not, in my opinion, a walking around the park food. Man are they messy.

My fiance and I usually split one. I like to dip it in honey mustard. Yum. It's only a once per trip kind of snack. I think the weirdness of it is why we always do it.

And we take the meat off the bone - we don't bite into it. Except for that first bite so you can get a picture of it!

 

[GSUMouse]

A must do on every trip!!!

I can remember when I used to look at people eating these massive things and feel bad for them... However after some convincing from a friend I decided to try one, I absolutely loved it!!! I now feel as if my trip to WDW is not complete if I do not have at least one while I am there. In recent trips I have noticed that they have become increasingly difficult to find in every park, I feel that DHS is the easiest by far. This could be due to the messiness involved with eating these legs, however I will continue to indulge every chance I get without fail.

Man are they messy.

Buying a Turkey leg is on our agenda of must things to do.
When we get them we do two things. First, grab a handful of napkins. Two, Strategically sit near a restroom where upon finishing the Turkey Leg, we thoroughly wash both hands and face to remove greasy mess. :slurp:
