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.

Your a little early for dinner aren't ya? Heck once we got the fryer we do chicken and Cornish hens too! It's lookin' good!

To all - Happy Gobble Day!

Nope, we eat around 1pm usually on T-day! Yeah, deep fried whole chickens are great too.
