In this post I’m going to share my recipe for turkey necks in the Instant Pot. I’ll also provide some tips and advice for cooking turkey necks. So whether you’re a beginner or a pro, I hope you’ll find this post helpful.

Ingredients

• 2 pounds turkey necks
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 carrots, chopped
• 2 celery stalks, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in the Instant Pot on the sauté setting.
2. Add the onion, carrots and celery and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
4. Add the turkey necks, chicken broth, thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper.
5. Secure the lid and set the Instant Pot to manual, high pressure, for 45 minutes.
6. Once the cooking time is complete, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually.
7. Remove the turkey necks from the Instant Pot and shred the meat.
8. Return the shredded meat to the Instant Pot and add your favorite sauce.
9. Serve over rice, noodles or your favorite side dish.

Tips

• To make the turkey necks more flavorful, you can marinate them in the refrigerator overnight in a mixture of olive oil, herbs and spices.
• If you don’t have time to marinate the turkey necks, you can still season them with salt, pepper and your favorite herbs and spices before cooking.
• You can use any type of sauce you like with the turkey necks. I like to use a simple barbecue sauce, but you can also use a tomato sauce, a cream sauce or a gravy.
• The turkey necks are cooked when they are tender and fall off the bone. If they are not tender, you can cook them for a few minutes longer.
