About Turkey drumsticks
Turkey drumsticks are flavorful, protein-rich cuts of poultry, celebrated for their tender meat and hearty taste. Originating from the versatile turkey, a staple in North American and global cuisines, drumsticks are often roasted, smoked, or grilled, making them popular in holiday feasts and barbecue spreads alike. Packed with essential nutrients, turkey drumsticks are an excellent source of lean protein, supporting muscle growth and repair. They also contain important vitamins and minerals, such as iron, zinc, and vitamin B6, contributing to energy production and immune health. However, due to the drumstick's higher fat content compared to turkey breast, moderation is key for those following low-fat diets. Skin-on drumsticks can also harbor additional saturated fats, so opting for skinless or preparing them with heart-healthy cooking methods can help balance their nutritional profile. Versatile and satisfying, turkey drumsticks remain a cherished option for wholesome, protein-forward meals.
