I have never brined a turkey before and wanted the very best tasting turkey for my family for Thanksgiving. All of my turkey dinners over the years have been fantastic, but I wanted this year's to be the best since two of my family members survived tragic accidents... something to be grateful for to say the least.
I decided on this recipe and followed it exactly as directed. It was quite a feat since I had a 22 pound turkey, but I did it. The final result was a dryer than usual turkey that leached out more juice than it should have and had no better taste than those of year's past... and after all that work!
My advice is never try this recipe and celebrate life and Thanksgiving for all the good reasons. THIS RECIPE WAS NOT ONE OF THEM!

This is an excellent recipe with one huge exception. The Temperature of 165 degrees is just too low. This turnkey should be roasted to 182-185. Against my better judgment, I took it out at 165. It had cooked at 325 for 4 hours, not the 3 hours suggested in the recipe. It was undercooked to the extent we could use only the white meat. Food Netowkr,lease, please change this recipt to read a higher temperature!

This was my first time making Thanksgiving Dinner by myself including a turkey. This recipe was fairly simple and the turkey came out very tasty and moist. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to use the stock or make the gravy (my husband insisted that I use an oven bag like his mom does but I'm sure that it would've been great. My mother even called me afterwards to rave about the leftovers. Thank you!

WOW! Best turkey I've ever made and my husband agrees - he had 3 servings!! The turkey was incredibly tender and juicy. And the gravy? To die for! It was a bit more work than I usually do but WELL worth the trouble. I'm going to search no more - this will be next year's recipe for my turkey and gravy.

The turkey meat was tender and delicious. I used the drippings, as suggested, for making the giblet gravy. I discovered, however, that the drippings CANNOT be used to make the gravy: TOO,TOO salty. I followed direction exactly. What could have happened?

This was the first turkey I ever made and it made me look so good! Everyone was so impressed. Loved the gravy too. It tasted fabulous. My only complaint is the organization of the recipe. It would be nice if the brine recipe was listed first -- it is the first step after all.

I always thought a brine was made with salt. This sounds more like a marinade???

We followed the recipe carefully from the brining to the making of the gravy. The turkey came out beautifully golden, moist & delicious. Also, the gravy was wonderful. My family absolutely loved it. We will be using this recipe for many years to come. Thanks Emeril.
