    I didn't boil it-- I marinated it and seasoned it, then grilled it until it was browned then wrapped it up in foil and let it cook on the grill low for an hour. Yummy! FYI 1 Turkey drumstick is not 56.7 calories. One medium drumstick is 424.3 calories. Here is the full nutritional information h - 6/7/12
