The key to it is to RINSE,RINSE, RINSE! or it will be salty. A basic brine is 1/4 cup table salt to 4 cups water. If using sea or Kosher salt, you will need to use at least 1/3 cup. In addition you can add brown sugar, herbs, spices, etc. Living in Mexico, the meat is lean & often tough, so brining is essential. It works great on pork too. It's especially effective on chicken breasts. I always brine my turkeys, in fact all poultry. The key to it is to RINSE,RINSE, RINSE! or it will be salty.

I used a "pre-brined" in 2007 and grilled the whole thing. TJ's turkey brine was too salty and ended up making the turkey just on the border of inedible. No more pre-brining for me, I want to be able to control the salt content. This T-day, we used a water added bird, but not brined and smoked it. It was so good that I've made them twice since then. The bones make an excellent smokey stock. I’m curious how the turkey turned out. I used a “pre-brined” in 2007 and grilled the whole thing.

I'm from Oregon and not ideal for Q'ing, but I still manage to try it all year around. Like your turkey....looks finger lickin'good!
