I made these today and they went over pretty well with Dad&nbsp;and three cats...<br /><br />Here is what was used:<br /><br />3 small turkey legs<br />3 stalks of celery split down the middle<br />seasoning salt<br /><br />Cut a 3/4" or so slit in the&nbsp;meaty end of the turkey leg.&nbsp; Cut a pointy "spearhead" at one end of the celery pieces.&nbsp; Gently push the pointy end into the slit&nbsp;and thread the celery along the bone as far as you can go.&nbsp; I did it on two sides of the turkey leg.&nbsp; Sprinkle the leg&nbsp;with the seasoning salt.<br /><br />If roasting uncovered, I would leave the skin on to lock in the moisture.&nbsp; If cooking in foil, you can get by removing the skin, seasoning, and then cover.&nbsp; I baked these in a 275 degree oven for 2 hours.&nbsp; The meat fell off the bone.<br /><br />Dad's turkey leg used regular seasoning salt.&nbsp; Mine had jalapeno flavored seasoning salt.&nbsp; Both turned out very tasty.<br /><br />I plan to wrap up a couple of pre-stuffed legs and throw them (along with a foil packet of veggies) in the Koolatron for the next camping trip...&nbsp;&nbsp;It would be a good thing to cook over coals and smokey applewood... all the&nbsp;while reading a good book and sipping a cold glass of wine.
