We eat a lot of turkey and I wanted a new recipe. This was a nice change of flavor! If you check my other recipe reviews, I am always one for simplifying whenever possible and needless to say, I did so here. I seasoned my (three) legs with S, P, and oregano. Then wrapped two pieces of bacon around each leg and fried it in a pan just like you would regular bacon. Turning carefully so the bacon doesn't fall off. Then I placed the legs in the crockpot. Poured 1Tb. of Hoisin sauce over each leg and cooked on low for 6-8 hours. It was delicious and easy!

I wanted to take a break from eating red meat and thought of using this turkey recipe for my husband. The first time we had it, my husband was not only surprised by the size of the turkey legs, he was also extremely pleased with how it tasted. I cooked it again when a couple of friends came for dinner and they found it also delicious! It has become a favorite dish whenever we expect relatives and friends for dinner. But to improve its taste, I marinated the turkey without the olive oil for at least 2 hours or better yet overnight in the refrigerator then an hour before cooking, I mixed the olive oil into the marinade and let it sip through. Yummy!

I was looking for something different and found the recipe. It was really easy to prepare and it turned out great. I used precooked bacon and it still gave it a great flavor. I will try this one again:)

This was a lot of work, but absolutely great. I was afraid it was going to be too salty, but it was just right. I used turkey thighs, instead of legs, because that was what I had. That may have been why I had some trouble with stuffing the ingredients into the slits I made. I'll try it again when I find turkey legs on sale.

Worth the wait! Excellent - and I don't even like Turkey legs very much.

These did not have much flavor, and they were very chewy. I will not make this again.

Boy, were these good! I pulled the skin back before I made the slits - then pulled it back over after they were stuffed. Awesome blend of flavors. Definitely worth the time. Beaufiful once browned, too. For an inexpensive meal, it's definitely something you wouldn't be afraid to serve to guests. Thank you! What a great tribute to "Dad" to share.
