In a large bowl, combine coconut milk, minced garlic, sliced onion, sliced ginger, chicken bouillon paste, salt, and pepper.

Add the coiled lemongrass to the mixture.

Coat the turkey legs thoroughly with the marinade and let them marinate for at least 1 hour.

Prepare your smoker according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Preheat the smoker to 225°F (107°C).

Place the marinated turkey legs in the smoker, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

Smoke the turkey legs for about 4-5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Once done, remove the turkey legs from the smoker and let them rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
