If It Don't Fall Off The Bone, It's Free. And It Ain't Ever Free
I feel like the term "legend" gets thrown around way too nilly-willy these days. And I'm totally guilty of it myself. Folks will have a buddy from college who drank 11 beers one night and his buddies will call him a legend for the rest of eternity. He's not a legend, he's just your buddy Greg. It takes the weight and impact away from the word when you use it that freely. When you use the term "legend", it should mean something. Like when you're talking about this legend right here.
I'm sure at this point most of you are familiar with this man. The big fella makes meat fall off the bone so easily you'd think he was Drew Brees.
You see, boys and girls, this is what life is all about. It's about figuring out who you are, what you do, and then absolutely crushing those things every single day for the rest of your time on this Earth. This man is the Turkey Leg King, and what he does is cook up some turkey legs that are so deliciously tender that the meat just slides right off the bone every damn time. You think this man has ever given away a free turkey leg? Not a chance. Because he's got this shit locked down.
And I know there are going to be some hardos out there who claim that this is overdone. Some folks who think this is isn't considered a work of perfection because you should still be able to have a little bite without everything completely falling off the bone. But if you watched my ribs video from earlier this week, you'll know where I stand on this issue.
It doesn't matter. Some people like a little bite, some people like it to fall cleanly off the bone with barely even a shake. This guy likes 'em flopping right off the bone and I DARE you to tell him that he's wrong.
