I made this turkey last year and it was the moistest I've ever eaten! This is now my go to recipe for turkey. My family thoroughly enjoyed this recipe and I was quite impressed!

We tried this recipie with the butter and it was amazing. I agree with Pamecord that the meat was super moist and the flavor was not overpowering but complimenting the natural flavor of the bird. Even the butter did not give the meat a mustard flavor. Surprizingly, only the tea was noticeable in the skin if you tasted the skin alone. The flavors married nicely and I think it is best described as savory or comfort turkey.

I made this turkey last Thanksgiving (minus the flavored butter and my family LOVED it! The meat was super moist and the flavor was not over powering. It was a nice change from my mom's classic "plain" turkey.

this brine gets 5 stars for its smell while boiling. i could drink it if it weren't so salty. anyways, used this brine on an 11lb bird, then smoked it to perfection the next day. best turkey ever! made a rosemary/sage butter instead of honey mustard. tasted amazing. meat was juicy and tender.
