I like the mix of Turkey tails & Pork the flavors blend really well but you can make what ever you like for your filling..I found the best dough for this recipe on the Samoa Food.com web-site, her instructions are easy to follow and the dough recipe is perfect!

Ingredients:
1-1/2 lb. Turkey Tails
1-1/2 lb Pork (any cut will do)
Marinade:
1 whole clove garlic or 8 segments (diced)
3 tablespoon ginger (diced)
1 whole onion
4 tablespoon Mushroom Soy Sauce or a Dark Concentrate Soy Sauce
1 cup Kikkoman or any Teriyaki Sauce
Mix marinade in a medium size bowl,cut up all meat in small pieces and place in marinade (overnight is best
but an hour or so if in a hurry ) you can pepper and a little salt if you like but keep in mind the Soy Sauce is very salty.
Cut Pork into small pieces, for the turkey tails I took the bone & plastic little things left from the feathers out.
easier to cut the tails into small pieces also. There is a lot of fat on the tail so cut away as much as you can so the meat mixture will not be too oily, add to the marinade.
When meat is marinaded, cook on a medium high heat for about half an hour, then turn down to a light simmer until meat is tender about an hour or so. Set aside and let cool.
Meanwhile make your dough from the recipe on the web-site below process can take a few hours but it is all worth it..Enjoy!
