Preparation

Step 1
In a medium sized sauce pan add olive oil and set over medium high heat. Once the oil is hot add the peaches, onion and jalapeño peppers. Sauté till the onions and peaches are soft. Remove from the heat.

In a blender add the peach mixture as well as the remaining ingredients minus the turkey legs. Blend until smooth.
Step 3
Add back to the sauce pan and cook down until thickened and warmed throughout.

Season your turkey legs with salt and pepper and add to the grill. Cook for about 45 minutes and then baste with the peach bbq sauce. Continue cooking and basting until the turkey legs reach an internal temperature of 180 degrees. This should take about 14-20 more minutes.
