    I use this recipe every year when the family comes to my house. It turns out perfect every time. It's taken the worry out of the dried up turkey.

    I LOVE this recipe. Dave has made a briner out of me. I used this recipe last year for the first time, and the turkey came out perfectly--moist and tender and we loved the hint of lemon in the turkey.
    I brined again this year with a pack of spices I purchased from a local spice shop, but used the directions with this recipe and included the lemon and bay leaves. The turkey, again, came out perfectly.
    I've actually recommended this recipe to a few friends. Thanks, Dave!

    I tried this recipe last year for a Thanksgiving gathering of 16 people (yes fearless and brave. I got quite a bit of recognition for my effort including the difficult to please children who enjoyed seconds. I have a lot less people this year but the ones that are having my turkey can't wait.

    I did a test run on this recipe last weekend on a small turkey. I omitted the cinnamon and cloves and only used 3/4 of a cup of sugar based on a previous reviewer saying it was on the sweet side. It was very moist and flavorful. Will definitly be making this recipe on Thanksgiving. Also the gravy was great but I think it might not have been if I had included the cinnamon and cloves.

    I made this turkey following the recipe and with 7 people, the whole turkey went. I got rave reviews and had to print out the recipe for the whole bunch. I won't cook a turkey any other way from now on.
