ThreeDJ16 Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 Here are the results of my efforts! Deep fried goodness - Mmmm. -=Jasen=- I have to say, I liked the brine better than injection on my turkey. I used 1 cup salt, 1 cup brown sugar, 1TB rosemary, 1TB marjoram, 1TB thyme, 1TB Sage, 1TB black pepper, 1/2 tsp nutmeg to 1 gallon water (boiled and cooled) for an 8 hour brine (11lb fresh non-injected turkey). Next time I will increase the brine time to 12-14 hours as I would have liked it a little stronger. I have always liked the turkeys I injected, but there were always pockets of flavor and it was never consistent throughout the meat. But the brining was very even throughout and very moist! Think I will stick with brining on fried turkeys. -=Jasen=- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
