Turkey Drumstick
Turkey Drumstick – The Hearty Classic for Connoisseurs
The turkey drumstick is the ideal cut for anyone who loves rich, aromatic flavor. Compared to the breast, the meat is noticeably darker, firmer in texture, and considerably juicier. Thanks to the prominent bone and natural fat content, the drumstick develops impressive depth of flavor when cooked.
It's especially popular for its skin, which turns extremely crispy with the right preparation while the meat underneath stays tender and juicy. A real highlight for the oven or the big grill!

Inspiration from the kitchen
The turkey drumstick loves spices and moderate heat:
Crispy oven drumstick: Rub the drumstick generously with a mix of oil, salt, pepper, and plenty of sweet paprika. Cook slowly in the oven at around 170°C until the skin is crispy and the meat is done.
Oriental braise: Braise the drumstick together with onions, garlic, and dried plums or apricots – the bold turkey meat pairs wonderfully with sweet-tangy notes.
Western-style: Marinated in a smoky BBQ sauce, the turkey drumstick becomes the classic "turkey leg" you know from fairgrounds.
Our preparation tip: Turkey drumsticks contain a few firm tendons. For especially tender meat, a slightly longer cooking time at moderate temperature is recommended. If you score the thinnest part of the drumstick all around before cooking, the meat draws in nicely as it cooks and is easier to remove from the bone afterwards.
