The Caucasus Army was one of the most well-trained and led forces in the Russian Army. Meanwhile the Turks' forces in the Caucasus were always second-rate, and starting in 1915 were always far outnumbered and outgunned. Plus you're not really giving the Russians due credit- they only really started to suck totally in 1917/1918 when they were collapsing, by which time there was no major fighting in the Caucasus (unless you count the Turkish offensive in 1918 against the remnants of what USED TO be the Russian army). Up to that point the Russians always had trouble with the Germans, but had a fair amount of success against the Austro-Hungarians- see the Galicia Offensive and the Brusilov Offensive.
The Turks actually did better against the British than the Russians iirc. Not to mention the Eastern Front itself. The Turks deployed the XV Corps, VI Corps, and XX Corps against the Russians in Europe. In this scenario they did very well; the XV Corps inflicted about 3 casualties for every 1 it took.
