How I De-Bone a Drumstick

[Gunslinger]

Alright, let's try this again.
This is how I de-bone a chicken leg. I'm new to the video thing so bear with me. I'll get better, I promise.

Nope, just cut it from the thigh.

That's funny. That's the smoke detector next to the wood stove which is in the basement. Every time I talk to Cheryl on the phone, and she's down there, I can here that stupid thing chirp, and I tell her to get a new battery. Been telling her daily for years. We're so used to it, we never hear it when we're there. Funny.

Here's what I would do.....wrap my lips around the leg, close my teeth and give a good pull. Video coming soon!

Thanks for the instruction, Tom. Now we need a video showing what you do with them after they're deboned.

I just looked at the next post down and you already had shown us cordon bleu. Thanks.

Stuff them with anything. Stovetop works for a quick stuffing, and I happen to like Stovetop. Kelly did those killer celery, carrot, onion, crimini mushroom, pancetta, and Ivernia stuffing drumsticks. I've done cream cheese, cheddar and bacon, mozzarella. Just whatever you fell like doing.

Very informative Gunner. Kudos Bud, I think even I can do this (Well maybe)...

Now, can you do a turkey leg the same way. I've got to try a turkey leg and stuff it with a fattie.

Sweet............. thanks Tom.

I was thinking about a turkey leg the other day, what with Thanksgiving approaching and all. And thought about all those damn tough tendons. But they can be worked around too. And stuffed with a fattie, now that might be good. Just be sure the middle of the fattie is 170°.
This is why I like the members at this forum. Most are a cut above the ordinary basic smokers at other sites. It's like this place is where the "advanced" cooks go. The creativity here is astounding.
BTW, nice to see ya dude.

too lazy to look up the orginal thread that started THIS thread.

do you sew up the opening, or toothpick it or what?

[Fishawn]

I'm pretty sure there aint much you can't do Tom. Nothing better than stuff stuffed with stuff and wrapped with stuff.
