Questions about Smoked turkey drumstick
Is smoked turkey drumstick already cooked?
Most smoked turkey drumsticks sold ready to eat are fully cooked; they need reheating, not another full cooking. If the packaging says they are uncooked, cook them until the thickest part reaches 75 °C, keeping the thermometer away from the bone.
How do you reheat smoked turkey drumstick without drying it out?
Put it in a covered ovenproof dish with a splash of water or stock and heat at 160 °C until steaming hot throughout. For a quicker meal, pull off the meat and warm it gently in gravy or soup.
What can you make with smoked turkey drumstick?
The smoky meat is especially good in split-pea soup, bean stew and lentil soup; add it early enough to flavour the broth, then remove the bone and shred the meat back in. You can also serve it with mashed potato, cabbage or roasted root vegetables.
How do you carve meat from a smoked turkey drumstick?
Let it cool enough to handle, then cut or pull the meat away from the bone, following the direction of the fibres. Check carefully for small bones and tough tendons, particularly if serving it shredded.
How long does smoked turkey drumstick keep in the fridge?
Refrigerate it within two hours of serving, in a covered container, and use it within three to four days. Freeze leftover meat in meal-sized portions; thaw it in the fridge and reheat until steaming hot.
Is smoked turkey drumstick very salty?
It can be: smoking and curing often add a substantial amount of sodium, so taste the meat before salting a soup or stew. It provides 996 mg of sodium per 100 g.
Can you use smoked turkey drumstick instead of plain turkey drumstick?
