This makes the juiciest turkey ever!!
2 gallons of cold water or 1 1/2 gallons plus ice.
1 cup kosher salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 Tbs each of Rosemary, Thyme, and Sage
Put water/ice mixture into a cooler that will fit your turkey, IGLOO coolers work great or we use our turkey frying pot. Mix salt, sugar, and herbs in bowl with some water to dissolve. Then add to water. Place turkey in brine for 12-24 hours before roasting.
When ready to cook, drain turkey, pat dry, cook as you normally would. This seemed like a pain the first time, but the results were soooo yummy that it is worth it!!!
