I know that I have posted this before, but we have a lot of newbies that may not have this recipe and it would be a great "different" idea for the weekend barbeques:

Buttermilk Barbecued Turkey Legs
Modified from the "Weber Real Grilling" cookbook.
Marinade:

2 Cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons imitation honey (or regular---it won't add to much sugar since it is just in the marinade)
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Also need:
4 turkey drumsticks, 14 to 16 ounces each
1/4 cup Canola oil
1/2 cup SF or low carb BBQ sauce

Steps:
1) To make the marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk the marinade ingredients. Place the drumsticks in a large, resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Press the air out of the bag and seal it tightly. Turn the bag several times to distribute the marinade, and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours or overnight.

2) Remove the drumsticks from the bag, wipe off the excess marinade, and discard the marinade. Lightly brush or spray the drumsticks with oil.
Grill over Indirect Medium heat until the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 180 degrees Fahrenheit, 1.5 - 2 hours, turning about every 30 minutes. During the last 15-20 minutes, brush occasionally with the barbecue sauce. Serve warm.
