Ingredients

6 turkey legs (thighs and drumsticks)
3 tsp poultry seasoning
salt and ground black pepper, to taste
6 sheets aluminum foil

Directions

1

Prep ahead by gathering all ingredients.

2

Rinse turkey legs and pat dry. Season with poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper accordingly.

3

Wrap each leg individually in aluminum foil, ensuring it's tightly wrapped.

4

Place the foil-wrapped legs into a slow cooker without any additional liquid or ingredients. Cover and cook on 'Low' for 7 to 8 hours until the meat is no longer pink at the bone and juices run clear.

5

Check the turkey's internal temperature with an instant-read thermometer; it should read at least 74°C (165°F) near the bone.

6

Remove from slow cooker and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Carefully unwrap and discard the foil sheets, then separate thighs from drumsticks.

7

Serve your delicious turkey legs as a complete meal or alongside your favorite sides.
