Drumette
Wing drumette of Turkey is the upper wing segment that looks like a mini drumstick—meaty for frying and grilling. Cook until skin crisps and meat pulls cleanly. As a drumette section of wing, portion for even cooking and clear labelling. Cook turkey drumette to temperature when thickness varies, rest before carving, and add fat or sauce if lean. Roasting, smoking, deli slicing, and mince show the cut’s strengths. Match heat to collagen—fast sear for tender muscle, long moist heat for hard-working joints.
