Step 1

Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 F.

Step 2

Pat the turkey legs dry with paper towels and place them in a large roasting pan. Avoid rinsing poultry in the sink; that will just spread bacteria around your kitchen.

Step 3

Create a compound butter by mixing the softened butter, salt, pepper, poultry seasoning, and thyme in a small bowl.

Step 4

Rub this mixture over the turkey legs. You can also rub it on the flesh under the skin for even more flavor.

Step 5

Pour the chicken broth into the pan around the turkey legs. This will help keep the legs moist.

Step 6

Roast the turkey legs for 1 hour and 30 minutes to 1 hour and 40 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 170 F. Remove the roasting pan from the oven, cover it with foil, and let stand for 10 minutes.

Step 7

You can serve whole legs or slice the meat off the bones and serve it that way.
