53 yrs old and never brined a turkey because I thought it would make it salty. This thanksgiving I followed your recipe and the turkey was absolutely outstanding. Best turkey I’ve ever done and everyone raved about it. Thank you! Can’t wait to view more of your content.

[KennNotKen]

I use bay leaves, cloves, black pepper(cracked), lemon and oranges, black tea, and salt and brown sugar.❤ I love your content!

I used your brine video last year- my grandfather said it was the best turkey he ever had. So you know I had to come back 😂. Happy holidays!!!

[TMYPiscesSunandMoonRising]

I have never cooked a turkey but was asked by a friend to make one for our Friendsgiving. Looked for brines and used yours except I used white sugar. I brined in the bottom portion of a crab pot for 24 hrs. Then, I slathered a butter compote with rosemary and thyme all over the bird for another 24 hours. Ohhhh we, my friends loved it, and I was so proud. Now I'm being asked to make another one 😂.

This is your BEST video where you really explain everything and you're not using a turkey brine product that many can't find or afford. You told us all the ingredients we need. Just wish you'd say the actual measurements of the pot and the ingredients. But men don't usually focus on that stuff anyways.

[Rockersocker]

Great video. My mom used to Brine her turkeys all the time for the holidays and I would help her out. Since she passed away my sister had been doing the turkey, but I'm hosting Christmas this year so I was taking the duty of brining the turkey. Your video is very helpful so that I can get an idea of what I was getting myself into. Much appreciation, sir. 😊

[shannonevans]

I tried this minus your seasonings because I only had salt. I'm 55+ this was my first turkey cooked to perfection. That breast is so tender: wow! Thanks so much!

[waldo]

Great recipe Ab! Brine is life. Ever since I brined my first turkey I have never looked back. The main reason for brining is to add moisture to the bird and make your cooking more forgiving to avoid getting that nasty dry turkey texture that you probably had in your younger years. Of course if you are infusing things in the bird you might as well impart some flavor in there. Brining will help your turkey no matter how you cook it afterwards (deep fry/smoke/oven/etc.) so give it a try.

My guy! Thank you for the video. Getting ready to brine and then do 40 minutes of pecan smoke. I've looked at 8 videos from the top search for Turkey Brine Recipes before seeing this video. Your video ended up being the GOAT. None of them mentioned about slightly boiling the brine first to help the salt, sugar, and other mixings marry together before using as a brine.

[WolverineJaye]

Let me tell y'all something!!! I followed these exact instructions and I will NEVER and I mean NEVER do it any other way, THE BEST turkey I ever had! It was juicy as h3ll😂 I will never go back to injection, I will brine everything I can from now on, thanks AB

[eSix]

I've done brine before. I've waited 24 hours and noticed a little bit of a difference. This year, I tried your brine except I used pure maple syrup with it and also let it sit for 1 1/2 days. Boy oh boy! What a difference! I did notice a bit of saltiness, but not so much that it was a deal breaker. Came out juicy and flavorful. Best turkey I've ever done. Will definitely do again

[hashbrownson]

I found this video at the right time, I've never cooked a turkey before and this year we are doing a brine for the first time as well and I feel wayyy more confident tackling this now. Thank you AB!

[TheThesweetgee]

Down here in the Louisiana we use half Tony chachrie Creole seasoning and half salt. Some use just the Tony's by itself instead of salt. Luv brining.. Great job..

[royaltyb]

Thank You AB for printable recipes! It’s life changing for someone like me who’s trying to get it all right on such an important holiday as Thanksgiving. Believe me your recipes gives me some measure of confidence that all will turn out okay. Happy Thanksgiving AB and Thanks for such an Awesome Dynamic Cooking Channel. ❤❤❤

[PyroB]

I do salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, Orange, rosemary sprigs, and thyme. I will add bay leaf next time. I get a bag of ice and pour the hot brine over the ice. There is usually some ice that doesn’t melt. Put in the bird, add orange and herbs. Put in cool garage overnight.

[simeyon]

My turkey came out perfect after watching this video... My first time, call it beginner's luck... I'm trying it again this Thanksgiving!!!

[Patricia-es]

Talking Turkey is just what I need.👍😋Yumm'O."

[BadgerWolf-]

[cesarpena]

Every year I let mine brine a day longer than the previous. it keeps coming out better and better. This year will be 5 days.
