I think I would be the most concerned about using the bleach right before adding the turkey. I mean the brinning process with salt is a chemical effect from the salt solution water. The moisture goes in to the turkey and then out after the process is complete. And the Sodium comment at the end is also not true. I have brinned for over 10 years and is great every time. I hate to be Grinch here at Turkey day but this video is no way near right and could be dangerous with bleach!
Ummmmm I'm bribing my turkey and it's been in my cooler for about 5-6 hours and I washed my cooler with a lot of soap and that's it. I put the ice in after the mixture of sugar and salt. Did I do anything wrong?
@bargainmom Far from being an idiot, I am not so concerned with food-borne illness that it controls every facet of my life. Simple common sense and decent hygiene are all that's necessary. You probably wear a "bunny suit" in the kitchen and spray everything with Lysol before you eat it.
@mslucien hey i was gonna type that. this needs cloves and apple cider maybe a little vinegar some bay leaves. this is the lamest brine i have ever seen
While it's true that rinseless sanitizer available from brewers supply stores will not permiate plastic it is also something that creates a need for someone who is not a beer maker/wine maker to make a trip to a store they don't usually visit. That's a great way to learn about beer making and I approve of the idea. However, the cooler is in need of sanitizing and a trip to the brew shop shouldn't stop someone from brining a turkey. Your point is well taken about rinsing as a last step. Thanks
You can find better solutions at your local homebrewing store. Bleach can permeate plastic, so you want to try to avoid using that. But, like I always say, regardless of what the labels says about "non-rinse" or otherwise, always rinse your tools.
I put mine in a big stainless pot then put in fridge overnight.

The water is chock full of salt and is ice cold - no chance of a bacterial infestation there. Look it up!

This guy is more concerned about his bleach water than the brining. Another "germ paranoia" fag.
