CHIPOTLE BARBECUE PULLED TURKEY DRUMSTICK SLIDERS WITH BRUSSELS SPROUT SLAW
Turkey drumsticks do not take kindly to the dry heat of an oven, which causes the meat to tighten up around the bone and tendons. But treat those same drumsticks to a long, slow, moist braise in barbecue sauce, and the meat falls off the bones, revealing tough tendons so numerous, you won't believe it.
