You may like the taste of salt overwhelming the flavor of the bird, but I don’t

Brining is for folks who have burned their tastebuds out with salt overuse over the years.

Salt is supposed to be a flavor ENHANCER. Brining makes it the primary flavor.

Keep your oversalted single flavor nonsense, I’ll cook my bird my way.
