    Cool Turkey Leg or Pork Shank?

    I know many of you won't go home UNTIL you get your mouth watering Turkey Leg, but who now votes for the New Fantasyland Pork Shank?

    Put us in this category too; however, my DD insists that her Dad is going to have a turkey leg during our December trip.

    Neither. But my husband eats meat, he prefers the Turkey Leg over the Pork Shank.

    The turkey leg is not for me. Too many tendons. But the pork shank looked pretty good and I would be willing to give it a try.

    Yeah, I can see that about the tendons. It is tasty, though. DW and I had the pork shank at Gaston's last trip. It was terrific!

    Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're NOT out to get you!

    .....who can resist either one? I mean ...it's meat on a stick ...technically .....it's almost the 'perfect food'. (...just wrap it in bacon ...and then I'll build a shrine to them )

    ....the new Fantasyland "Porksicle" sounds interesting ...I'll have to take a 'chance' on trying one

    I'm a fan of the Turkey legs, not a fan of the all tendons and how messy they are to eat.

    I will have to give the pork shank a try, Although as fatty as it looks, I am sure it has tons of flavour!!

    I had the pork shank last week I really enjoyed the spices on it but it's less meat than a Turkey leg. not sure how the price compares. I haven't had a turkey leg in a few years but I would get the pork again

    We were just there in May and I did not get to have a pork shank at Gaston's Tavern, but, I did get to have one at Everything Pop and it was very good. I think it will be my new must have on every trip.
