Great taste, however I have to agree with others. The recipe does not cook the legs through thoroughly. You will have to bake them another 25-30 minutes.

I've cooked these legs a couple of time and recently again this weekend. The flavor on the recipe is amazing. I had my family and friends literally fighting over the legs when I served them. The problem is in the cooking directions. These turkey legs take a lot more than 10 minutes to cook. After cooking them for 10 minutes each and finding them to still be raw on the interior I then cooked them in the oven on 350 for 30 to 45 minutes and they were done and tasty. I also prep my legs 3 days before. I let them sit one day in the dry rub and then two days in the liquid marinade making certain to massage the legs daily. The flavor penetrates all the way down to the bone using this method. I have made the recipe my own.

I would like to give 5 stars as Emeril's recipes are usually great, the timing on this recipe is way off.. In the deep fryer the cook time was 5 minutes~~ My guess not having a probe to watch it with should be around 24 to 30 minutes. I would recommend a probe you can place in a leg and leave it during the cooking time, and leave it in while the leg sets up as removing the probe without a wait will allow all the juices to run out.. this is really a great dish, The flavors are super and the taste pleased everyone when we finally got them cooked long enough :- yes they will come out dark!

I use this recipe for chicken wings. It is far the best I have found for my husband's favorite "football snacks"! Will always use this recipe..it's a winner!

Turkey skin gets dark as you try to cook all the way through. I placed them in the oven and cooked at 375 for about 30 minutes.

This recipe was simple and quite tasty. I was looking to make a different dish with the turkey besides the normal "Thanksgiving Dish." This was quite different and tasty! The kids loved it too!
