Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Brush butter over drumsticks to coat; season with black pepper.
Pour chicken broth into a roasting pan. Lay turkey legs into the broth. Place a lid on the roasting pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
