This Slow Cooker Crockpot Turkey Necks recipe is seasoned to perfection and then slow cooked to produce tender, juicy, fall-off-the-bone meat. This is a classic Southern meal perfect for holidays and Sunday dinners.
1cupbrothAny broth, turkey, chicken, vegetable, etc.
Instructions
Pat the turkey necks dry. Drizzle both sides of the necks with olive oil and then sprinkle the spices onto both sides of the necks.
Pour the broth into the bottom of the slow cooker. Place the seasoned turkey necks over the broth.
Cook on High for 4-5 hours or on low for 7-8 hours. (I prefer to cook them on Low for really tender turkey). Ensure the turkey reaches an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees. Use a meat thermometer.
Remove the turkey necks from the slow cooker. (Be careful! They will be tender and may fall off the bone.)
Notes
The recipe can easily be doubled and adjusted to suit what will fit in your slow cooker.
Season the turkey however you wish. Feel free to use your favorite rubs!
