I saw this recipe when I was watching Tyler Florence on the tv network. I tried it last weekend and it was perfect. Will make any thanksgiving turkey moist and flavorful! Cooking time is for marinating time.
1 turkey
Ingredients
- 3 gallons water
- 2 cups kosher salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 head garlic (chopped in half)
- 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
Directions
1
Mix all ingredients in a large 20 gallon stock pot or bucket and place turkey carefully in the brine. Allow to marinate for at least 12 hours or overnight.2
Bake, Broil, or Fry your turkey as normal and Enjoy!3
I rub my turkey with cajun seasoning after taking it out of the brine and then fry it. Wonderful flavor!
