    Great taste to the meat, but the recommended cooking time wasn't near long enough. We smoked a 6lb breast for about 8 hours; however, we used an actual smoker, not the grill method--that may have been the difference. Either way, the meat had a wonderful flavor and was very moist.

    We are first-timers this year to turkey on the grill, but it definately won't be the last time after preparing Alton's "Honey Brined Smoked Turkey" for Thanksgiving. Succulant, tender and flavorful. Our family loved it.

    I used this brine on my Thanksgiving turkey this year. It turned out very good. The turkey stayed moist and tender when I roasted it. Very nice brine recipe. Thank you Alton.

    I was a little nervous smoking a turkey for the first time. Using a large cooler was a great container for brining! The turkey came out with a golden brown skin, it was very moist and had just the right amount of hickory flavor. Now I wished I had purchased a larger turkey! An excellent recipe!

    I used the brine, but instead of smoking the turkey on the grill, I roasted it in the oven. It turned out perfectly! Everyone agreed, it was the juiciest and tastiest turkey they've ever eaten!! Thanks Alton!!

    I named this after the well known "better than sex chocolate cake" I could not believe Alton could top his good eats turkey-which is awesum! but this does. We could not stop nibbleing there were no leftovers!

    I made this last weekend as a test prior to thanksgiving. I must say it was the best turkey I've ever made.

    Folks this is a keeper, cant wait for Thanksgiving to do it again.

    I cooked this on my Webber Kettle grill in a foil pan on a flat rack and filled the bottom with white wine. I made a stock from the neck and giblets and used it with the drippings from the pan to make a wonderful smokey gravy.
