[Sca-cooks] smoked turkey necks?

[Stefan li Rous]

I've been seeing multiple displays of smoked turkey necks in my grocery 
lately. Perhaps because of the recent Thanksgiving holiday, although I 
don't remember seeing these in previous years. Maybe I just didn't 
notice.

Anyway, what can these be used for? Can these be used to flavor other 
foods to give a smokey flavor such as is done with smoked ham hocks? Or 
would the turkey necks disintegrate into a lot of tiny bones? By the 
same reasoning, I suspect there are too many bones, or not enough meat 
that these are actually used as a meat source. Or am I wrong here?
