The Turkey Leg Phenomenon.

Chicken thigh ice cream is my favorite. :slurp:

Though it is followed closely by the frog body ice cream over at Chefs De France. :slurp:

Uh, I believe they call it the "Premium Chicken Thigh Ice Cream" .....

Turkey legs taste like ham because they are cured (seasoned with salt and aged) and smoked like ............... ham.

I think that you’ll find that the ham taste comes from the adhesive they use to stick the processed chicken flavoured pork to synthetic bone like material. I believe that this glue is made from rendered horse meat, but Disney is very selective and only uses former racehorses as their sinewy carcass makes a more adhesive product. The colour is provided by a food additive made from extracts left from the discarded shells of shrimp that are processed and frozen. So I would say that it is a very environmentally friendly product

The thighs however are processed and used for food (hamburgers, hotdogs, tacos, ice cream, sodas, candy, cakes, pies, chicken strips, pizza, etc.) in the worldwide chain of Disney CM cafeterias.

Anyone willing to make me some Turkey thigh ice crea, soda, candy, cake, and pie? I'm thinking they might be right up there with....BEVERLY! They sound deliscious Woody...now, if only I can find how to make each of those. :slurp:

:lol:

That’s because its not made from real shepherds. But that’s an English dish, I prefer something made from sheep’s offal, oatmeal and cooked in the lining from a sheep’s stomach and served with mashed turnip and potatoes

Why the sarcasm towards my national dish? Haggis is hard enough to catch so they should be savoured and revered.

Could you also post Joke next to your posts that are meant to be funny and fact next to the posts providing information?


Now that’s sarcasm

I can't imagine walking around at WDW in the middle of summer eating a huge turky leg. It just doesn't sound that tasty. :hurl:

I remember on the Food Network when they were covering favorite foods at WDW they showed them preparing turkey legs, and I could have sworn, someone feel free to correct me, that they inject the turkey legs with a solution to keep it moist, and that's why it comes out pink.

Ohh there’s so many opportunities in that statement for my sick sense of humour :dazzle:

But I am fond of pink meat

Salt water mix of some sort. They did mention it. It adds flavor during the slow cooking process.

Smoking is a very ancient method of food preservation. Prior to the advent of refrigeration, if you desired to preserve meat, you had to salt it, pickle it, dehydrate it or smoke it. Smoking meat is not the same as cooking meat.

In the smoking process the food materials are first salted, then hung for a certain length of time in a closed room where the smoke of burning wood (generally hickory) is allowed to enter. The outside of any smoked food is ordinarily brown. We smoke fish, meats and poultry. The inside of the meat will be pink and fully "cooked". The salt is a vital component to stop bacteria and it tenderizes the meat.

Good meat smoking (and dehydrating) technique requires many hours at specific temperature levels and exact recipe inclusion of salt content. The bottom line is that without salt, we all die! :kiss:
