This recipe is easy, and pretty tasty. I don't know anything about what might be medieval or not, but it is like a light, thin marinade version of a barbeque sauce. I'll definitely make it again, but I'll probably add some heat to it in one way or another. It seems like it would be better if it was a little spicy.

Oh, I find it soooooooo terribly frustrating when people give recipes poor ratings without even trying them, even worse when they admit they think it would be tasty! WHO CARES if turkeys and tomatoes aren't technically Medeival, people who look at this recipe are doing so because they want to make and eat it, I mean, isn't that what a purpose of a recipe is? To those who are here for that purpose, you will see if you read on that the low ratings come from mostly nothing to do with the actual recipe itself, but from pure silliness. It is actually quite delicious. Find something else to do with your time, People!

Yummy!!!! Reminds me of the Turkey Legs we had in South Texas at a Festival. Very tender and not to spicy. Just right.

Food Network used to have some competent cooks and chefs on it. Emeril, for example, earned at least a C- for his Medieval efforts. However, since the ascendancy of Bobby Flay, and the demise of Emeril and Mario. the quality of the culinary efforts has seriously declined.

This recipe, for example, is named something that has absolutely nothing to do with it.
I have no doubt it's reasonably tasty, but what on earth is vaguely Medieval about turkey legs, tomatoes, and for that matter, marinades (as we use them and plastic bags?

Perhaps in the future the purported cook might actually research a topic before using her imagination to produce a recipe?

I'm confused. The recipe looks like it might be tasty, but I've worked with a great number of actual medieval recipes, and none of them have tomato in them. And turkeys are not available in Europe until well into the Renaissance, being as how they're a New World bird. Is there a reason why this recipe is called 'medieval'? Because well, it isn't.

Considering that both turkey and tomatoes originated in the Americas, and therefore didn't exist in Europe in the middle-ages, in what way is this recipe even remotely medieval?

These cooking times are way off. I had the chicken on for 50 minutes and the turkey for 40 and both were still bloody when we sat to eat.
