Turkey Tips: How To Brine A Turkey
Brining involves infusing proteins with a mixture of salt, sugar, and other flavorings through osmosis. This process tenderizes the meat and imparts a chosen flavor profile to the turkey, creating a delicious and flavorful outcome.

3/4 C. Salt
1/2 C. Sugar
1 Gallon Warm Water
Customize with your choice of aromatics (garlic, herbs, lemon, etc…)
π«πππππππππ:
1. Dissolve salt and sugar in warm water.
2. Cool to room temp.
3. Pour over the turkey in a large pot or bucket.
4. Add aromatics.
5. Mix in more brine as needed.
6. Let sit in brine for up to 2 days in the refrigerator.
7. Bonus: If you have time to let the turkey dry overnight in the refrigerator after brining, it will help the skin brown better.
