The Turkey Leg Hut | World Famous Stuffed Turkey Legs (Texas Country Reporter)

[@Terminal-Vet]

This place has been on my bucket list for years.

[@mj27781]

I’m finally going in May and I can’t wait. Lol

[@crytkryssus9851]

They're going through some turmoil. A divorce and one of them was stealing money. I did go like a year ago though, and it was delicious. Loved the swamp fries as well.

[@docholliday4546]

​@@crytkryssus9851Yeah, they weren't as super awesome as they claimed!

[@oskinooa]

They ait

[@Ca-yj4il]

@@Terminal-Vet you are right!! You will definitely need a bucket for sure

[@JacksonWalter735]

I miss Turkey Leg Hut so much. I used to live a few houses behind there and had to visit at least once a week. It was like god was testing me every time I came home and smell those smokers. The stuffed leg and shrimp alfredo legs were my go-tos. Lynn and Nakia are some of the sweetest people I've ever interacted with at a restaurant and they really care about their customer's experience. Sometimes I wonder if it was a mistake to move away to Florida for a promotion, and Turkey Leg Hut is one of the primary reasons why. It is that good. I miss Houston and can't wait for the day I come back home. I need to try all the other options that they added onto their menu.

[@moneybilla]

Lmao it's bankrupt my guy😂😂, them black owners were embezzling money from the company the entire time

[@JacksonWalter735]

@@moneybilla wait for real?!?!?! And I never got a chance to eat it one last time 😭

He may not have played cursing music, but he sure did curse out his employees.

🗣And Did!

[@DeanUSAMale]

When a Man has a Good Wife and they are a TEAM... and working to do GOOD and BLESS others... than this is what happens... that food looks incredibly delicious and it is easy to see why they are successful!!! God bless Texas!

[@velvetice100]

Yes the food is banging if you ever come to Houston please stop by ❤

[@ChrisBeenRaw]

Well this one aged well damn

[@slayinroaches702916]

He sounds like the narrator for Me Myself and Irene 🤣🤣🤣

[@leonhaberdashery1476]

Sorry, but that male owner comes off way over bearing and cocky. Notice how he snatched that lady's food from her @1:00, and didn't replace the side along with the turkey leg? That's the kinda bullshit that would set me off, lol. Dude seems more interested in clout than anything.

[@ericHHII]

Exactly! He should’ve developed staff he could trust

[@DuffLuv56]

Exactly, Anddddddddd THAT'S why they are now Shut Down, Divorcing & Being Sued by numerous people.🤷🏾‍♀️

[@joycelefear2139]

Thank you. My Son told me the information as far as he knows. I love what you guys are doing. Thanks.

[@mikek6461]

"we ran a whole kitchen with no food preparation experience" this ended well

[@SOLDOZER]

"We can tell" - Heath Department

[@JayDee-bf7dd]

I'm glad to see its still open! We've been there a few times before. After the $2,000,000 in various lawsuits started to come out, I wasnt sure what would happen. We always get the stuffed boudin and the mac and cheese. It's pricey but it's always lunch, dinner, and lunch for us so your dollar really stretches out.

[@Duwonn]

Got dirty rice stuffed Turkey leg while I was in Houston, compliments to the chef.

[@samsmith3082]

The City of Houston health department closed this place down for 35 health code violations on site.

[@juls41056]

Running a restaurant with no culinary experience is not a flex. Even if you work for a casual chain restaurant as a cook it's far better experience than no experience at all. You can gain so much knowledge in a short amount of time.

[@ChefJames-SlapShack]

I definitely will be visiting when I go to Texas

[@PriscillaDixon-m7q]

They closed

[@SOLDOZER]

Not anymore you wont.

[@kennethdavis459]

Keep up the great work

[@jacksparrow7300]

I love the Turkey Leg Hut always great food and fellowship.

[@perrygay337]

Amazing looking plates, great job

[@cazbantu4233]

I tried a turkey legs from a Soul Food restaurant near me and I was so disappointed. I’m from Texas and we always have turkey legs from football games to the county fair.

[@aladynamedSusan]

Born and raised Houstonian, and lived on Elgin st not even 10 minutes from the place and STILL never tasted the food 😂gosh darn it they closed now so I may never know, unless they reopen

[@Jamesssssssssssssss]

This didn't age well, they were just shut down for 35 major code violations. I guess the only thing that gets past him is the wind and those 35 code violations

[@Phenomenal8448]

He said he runs a tight shift then how did your business get robbed by the people you supposed to trust to handle your money? And the accusations of them not paying their employees talking about they can rehire their fired employees in the summer.. what about the employees owe money more than six weeks? I was hoping that was Kelli Phillips formerly kfdm news

[@moneybilla]

Employees didn't take the money the balck owners did lmao

[@marilynwebb2679]

I never like turkey legs. I've made them for other people, and never ate them. I had one of their turkey legs and OMG they are so good! I would love to actually go their and have one of those stuffed legs.

[@334honda]

$20 and up for a large bone. But that can be said for a t bone also.

[@Jgeetharealg]

I really want them to fight to keep their family together , it won't be easy but it will be worth it....

[@elkhunter76]

Dang I wish we had a place like that here! Great looking food!

[@The_Black_Sheep95]

This place was just shut down 2 days ago for multiple ongoing health violations. just check Houstons local news

[@grap3eblood]

“we weren’t allowed to see the smokers, or set foot in the kitchen” yeah after that health department shutdown the other day, I wonder why that was 😂😂😂

[@dicedpineapples9423]

Best turkey legs I ever tasted ! Great vibes !

[@SOLDOZER]

Even the rotten ones they stored at room temp?

[@Mr.MKBone]

Oh god. That food looks like heaven

[@samsmith3082]

they got into big trouble (sued) for not paying their suppliers, did they get that cleared up???

[@polobuk8491]

Shhhhh 😂

[@jamesthomes303]

Gotta pay the plug 🔌

[@Ace_chpt1]

U messy…

[@samsmith3082]

truth- it is what it is. Thank you@@Ace_chpt1

[@cunpredictable4]

According to the news today. Never got cleared up

[@donhgr]

Never been to Texas but we been making these at home like that for years seasoning and a rubbed in soft butter the wrapped in foil after they’re smoked and they shake right off the bone. Don’t know about stuffing but that’s how you do the legs

[@moneybilla]

Should try it without the side of cancer (foil) lmao

[@sharocks4584]

Eagle eyeing me eating...I think not

[@scottmcwave9479]

That one with the gravy, I’ll have that please!

[@StephanieSmith-e9k]

Want to go there I love soul food ❤❤❤🎉

[@kidmack3556]

Because of several delays and those last minute boarding gate mix-ups at Bush Intl. I promised myself to no longer book flights that have me change planes in Houston. BUT NOW... After seeing what they are workin' with at the Turkey Leg Hut, I might welcome a three or four hour delay.

[@edithhilt6290]

[@lionofjudah6763]

My first time eating there the Turkey Leg and Rice was so very delicious. It is worth the visit if you ever in Houston, TX. The parking can be challenging so I just paid the money around $10 to park.

[@MT-ru1oh]

i cook for a living almost 20 yrs now. i respect what they doing and i love turkey legs but i don't want my turkey leg meat falling off the bone when i pick it up. i cook mine tender but i can still hold it and get a clean textured bite. not tuff like fair turkey legs but a bit more tende. same thing with beef roast i dont want it shredded or anything like that

[@S.Smith-wz7ze]

I definitely want my turkey leg to fall off the bone.

[@MIMI232]

So they basically just place the toppings on top of the turkey leg…🤔🥴

[@jasonallen3678]

Woah,all that food looks good..

[@azaaqt]

Dayum I hope they just keep their proprietary recipes and open another business because this food was sooooooooooo good ✨

Yes!! It looks like one plate could serve me 4 times. The portion sizes are insane for someone who eats the amount of calories they SHOULD be eating. Lol!

[@TheeOne4.44]

You don't have to eat it all at once, ya know LoL

[@zahmmy1]

This place is not cheap. $16.49 for a plain turkeyleg-no stuffing up to $38.49 each for the ones with seafood.

[@MrColeman631]

Best time to go

😮

[@mannyescamilla716]

Mines was over cooked,and I tasted liquid smoke

[@moneybilla]

It's always overcooked, that meat shouldn't fall off the bone. And wouldn't even doubt the smoke comment either tbh

[@SOLDOZER]

The whole point of it is to be over cooked.

[@alonelylokimain3710]

I live 15 minutes away from turkey hut, one leg was 30$ it was the most overrated leg I had ever had. There any good restaurants in houston yes but this one doesn't always hit

They just filed bankruptcy..
