Forgot to post this. After the holidays, I found some smoked turkey legs on clearance. We like using the meat in a pot of beans, as it's a much healthier option than ham. They are precooked since they are smoked but we like to boil them for a couple of hours. It lets us skim off any fat and makes the meat fall apart tender.
Though they had the wings, we like the legs, seem to get a bit more meat for your money.
The pot filler comes in handy!
After they have boiled for a couple of hours, we pour out the water. It's literally falling off the bone tender.
Took about 10 minutes to get all the meat off the bones (those tendons are a pain, ha).
We ended up with 6 cups, divided into 2 cup packages, vacuum sealed and put in the freezer for future use (three big pots of bean soup).
