Number Of Ingredients 8

2 smoked turkey legs or parts of your choice
3 lb frozen lima beans

Add a lid, then Place on stove top and heat over medium high heat and bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer and continue to cook till legs are tender. About 1 1/2 hours more or less as desired. When legs are tender and meat begins to pull away from the bone
  • 2. Remove legs from pot, to a large platter and allow to cool.
  • 3. Add the lima beans to the boiling water, and return to a boil, adding additional water to cover beans if desired,cover and cook over medium high heat. Add spices, onion, minced garlic, and stir to blend but continue to cook. Stir often to prevent sticking.
  • 4. While beans are cooking, remove all of the bones, fatty tissue, skin & splinters from the turkey legs. Then chop into nice size pieces.
  • 5. Add turkey back into pot during last half hour or so of cooking, and cook until beans are tender or desired consistency is reached.
