  • Once you brine a turkey, chicken or any kind of meat you will never go back. Brining is the best way to prep and season meats!

  • Totally agree. There should be a Good Eats channel; or an Alton Brown channel.

  • Brining is the only way. Found the best brine container, check out The Briner. Easy to use, came with recipe and instructions. Check this thing out! Easily find it on line

  • @Dreby14 . I agree. I found a great container this year, check out The Briner. Held my 23 lb bird with room to spare. Easy to use, came with recipe and instructions. I highly recommend The Briner

  • No need to rotate if its completely submerged. I have brined for years, and this year found a great container. Check out The Briner on line. Worked great, held my 23 lb bird with room to spare. Easy to use, and came with recipes. I highly recommend this thing, check out The Briner!

  • Boiling my brine right now. No other way to prep your turkey but by brining. Yummy!  Can't wait to eat turkey.

  • @omahacheeks764 Oh! And I boiled a bay leaf with the brine. Can't forget anything. Gosh! I can't believe how awesome it is. I'll always brine my frozen turkies from now on :)

  • 25.75 lb frozen turkey in brine of 1 C canning salt, 1 C sugar, 1 t ground all spice, 2T peppercorns, 1 C minced garlic, 1 bottle of Sam Adams beer. I left in a 5 gallon bucket for 51.5 hrs, put it in my turkey pan, patted it dry, put it in the oven at 250 for 8 hours....best turkey I ever made! The meat fell off of the bone, juice oozed out of each piece and the skin was the perfection of crispy golden brown! Thank GOD!!! :D
