How to Make Amber Glazed Turkey Wings Legs

  1. Place turkey wings and legs in a large pot and cover with about 6 cups of water.
  2. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for approximately 90 minutes, or until the turkey is easily pierced with a fork.
  3. Remove the turkey from the pot and let it cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, refrigerate until ready to use (at least 2 hours).
  4. While the turkey cools, prepare the glaze (see recipe below).
  5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (approximately 375-400°F).
  6. Place the turkey wings and legs on the preheated grill. Cook for 20-30 minutes, basting frequently with the amber glaze, until the turkey is heated through and the glaze is caramelized and sticky.
  7. Remove from grill, let rest for 5 minutes, and serve. Yields 4 servings.
