Don’t know this is the first time I’ve tried it. They say it is. The recipe is very simple. 1 to 2 gallons of water. Two cups of Kosher salt, 1 pound of brown sugar, 1/4 cup of ground pepper, some liquid smoke, spices of your choice. Heat the water until all the salt and sugar is melted, cool with ice then put your turkey in and let sit from 12 to 24 hours in the frig. Take it out wash it off pat dry it or let dry for an hour in the frig. Then cook.

My wife has to work today so we're going to have our turkey for Christmas. But we might brine it... let us know how it works out!

Oh it will be great...very moist when brined. I brined for years. This is the first year I passed and just did a marinade injection. The big bird is in the oven now....can’t wait to see if it’s as good as the brined.
Good luck!
