Notes
Cooking Time: If your turkey necks are larger, they might need extra time in the crockpot.
Spices: Feel free to adjust the spices to suit your taste. If you like it spicy, a dash of cayenne can add a kick.
Checking Doneness: The turkey necks should be tender and easily fall off the bone when they're ready.
Serving: These turkey necks are great over rice or mashed potatoes to soak up the flavorful juices.
Fresh Herbs: If you have fresh thyme or other herbs on hand, using them can elevate the dish even more. Just remember to remove larger stems before serving.
