Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
- Rinse and dry turkey legs; season on all sides with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Place bacon in a large Dutch oven and cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat until bacon begins to crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
- Increase heat to high and add olive oil. Add turkey legs, skin side down, working in batches if necessary. Cook, turning, until turkey is browned on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer legs to a plate and discard all but 1 tablespoon of rendered fat from Dutch oven.
- Add carrots, celery, and leeks to Dutch oven and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add brown sugar and cook until it begins to bubble. Add thyme, sage, bay leaves, and cider; bring to a boil and stir, breaking up any browned bits at the bottom of pan. Continue boiling until cider is reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
- Add chicken stock and bring to a boil; reduce heat to a slow simmer and add reserved bacon. Return turkey legs to Dutch-oven, skin side down; cover and transfer to oven. Cook for 40 minutes, turn turkey legs, uncover, and continue cooking until legs are tender, 45 to 50 minutes more.
- Transfer turkey legs to a serving platter. Skim fat from top of braising liquid and discard; season braising liquid with salt and pepper and spoon over turkey legs. Serve.
APPLE-BRAISED TURKEY THIGHS
We're calling this the ultimate autumnal dinner. Turkey thighs are braised in a combination of apple cider and cider vinegar along with Granny Smith apples and shallots. This dish is quick to prepare and tastes even better the next day; let it cool completely in the pan sauce, then reheat gently in a covered pot.

Add apples and cook until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
- Return turkey, skin side up, to pot; add cider and broth. Bring to a boil, cover, then place pot in oven. Cook 1 1/2 hours. Uncover; cook 30 minutes more.
- Remove pot from oven and transfer turkey to a plate. Skim fat from cooking liquid and stir in vinegar. Slice meat off bones (discard bones) and serve turkey with apples and pan sauce.

- Preheat the oven to 325°. In a very large deep skillet, heat the oil until shimmering. Season the drumsticks with salt and pepper, add them to the skillet and cook over moderate heat, turning, until browned all over, about 8 minutes. Transfer the drumsticks to a platter.
- Add the celery, carrot, onion and a pinch of each salt and pepper to the skillet and cook over moderate heat until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the cider, stock, bay leaves and thyme and bring to a boil. Pour the mixture into a large roasting pan. Add the drumsticks and cover tightly with foil. Braise the turkey in the oven for 45 minutes. Uncover and braise for 15 to 20 minutes longer, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh registers 160°. Carve the drumsticks and transfer the meat to a deep serving platter.
- Strain the braising liquid through a fine-mesh strainer into a medium saucepan, pressing hard on the solids. Spoon off any fat. Boil over moderately high heat until reduced to 4 cups. Season the cider jus with salt and pepper and spoon some of it over the turkey. Sprinkle with the parsley. Serve the remaining jus alongside in a gravy boat.
