Directions:
- Mix the salt, brown sugar, liquid smoke and water together until all is dissolved and pour the briny mixture over the turkey legs.
- Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for 24-hours to 72-hours.
- Rinse the brine off the turkey, pat dry with paper towels and roast at 350°F for about 45 minutes.
- By this time, the turkey will almost be done, but the skin will still have a pale color, so I crank the oven up to 500°F and roast the legs/wings until they are a rich mahogany color, then I flip them over and roast the other side until it is also deep brown.
