Can you use other turkey parts, like turkey legs?

Of course, you can use any turkey part you want, like the drumsticks, aka legs, a portion of the wings, or the wings like I'm using here. Just stick with the same measurements, that's all.

Do I have to use cream of chicken?

NO!!! Sometimes when I bake my wings I don't use cream of chicken. I typically only use it when making them in the crockpot because the pressure produces a lot of liquid. I try to combat that by adding the cream of chicken for additional thickness for the gravy. Making turkey wings without the cream I found allows you to taste more of the turkey wing's "turkey" flavor.

How to store smothered turkey wings?

Tightly sealed in a Tupperware dish in the refrigerator in the coldest area or in the freezer if you plan on storing it to eat at a much later time.

How to make the gravy smooth when reheating?

Simply place a skillet over low heat, add in the gravy and a little broth or water, and stir until smooth and warm. Add as much broth or water as needed.

How long do smothered turkey wings last?

4-5 days in a refrigerator, and much longer if stored in a freezer. Make sure they're tightly sealed in a tupperware bowl or ziploc bag if you store them in the freezer.
