Cook's Notes

To make the stock weeks in advance, ask your butcher for the necessary neck and giblets (sans turkey), or substitute about five pounds of turkey wings, thighs, and drumsticks.

I do not like using giblets, so I always substitute about 3 large turkey legs and it really works well! You can buy the turkey legs packaged in the meat department at most grocery stores. My stock always has great flavor and helps to make the best gravy ever! I always make Martha's brined turkey recipe and her yummy riesling gravy! My family loves this and I have been making this for about 10 years now! Thank you Martha!!!
