    Brining is a pain but this turkey was fantastic. It stayed crazy moist! I ended up cooking it in a bag (i was running short on time and Mom said it'd crisp up but it didn't--i don't care, i don't eat skin and it only took 2 hours. I love that it gives the turkey meat a very savory flavor...not "just" turkey...it was really good. I can't wait to try it with turkey breasts on the grill this summer

    It was my first time baking a turkey and I was really nervous but this turned out to be the best I've ever tasted! It was so moist and delicious everybody kept complimenting me! Can't wait to make this again.

    I cook. I cook everyday. This is by far the best brine ever for turkey. It is such a keeper that I'm keeping it a secret. Little do they know that the secret is on Food Network. I am now called the Turkey Whisperer. Whatever you do, do not overcook the turkey......no brine will save you. (Maybe this one will, but I'm not willing to test it. Phenomenal. The most scrutinizing palates will be surprised. I can't thank you enough.

    Finding a good recipe for roasting a turkey was kinda tough at first cause there's so many to choose from you find yourself wondering which one is the right one to choose. Choosing this recipe was one of the best decisions I could have made for our Christmas dinner. I will forever brine my turkeys before cooking them. The turkey came out so juicy. I can honestly say that I have never had a turkey fall off he bone the way this one did. I highly recommend anyone wanting a prefect turkey to try this recipe. Thanks for publishing this recipe.

    My mother and I have brined a turkey before with the basic salt water, turns out moist and tasty!! This year my 20 year old daughter who loves Emeril found this recipe on the website so we tried it this past Thanksgiving (2009 WOW what wonderful flavor. I have been cooking my Thanksgiving turkeys on the gas grill (in a tented foil pan for 5-6 years now. With this new brining liquid the flavor was excellent and all meat was so moist it literally fell off of the bone.. I would recommend this to everyone. It is the night before Christmas eve and I just put my turkey in the brine....knowing that it will taste great tomorrow evening. Happy holidays to all...thank you for a great recipe!!!

    I'm recently married and this year was my first time cooking. I had my family along with the in-laws over so everything had to be PERFECT! I was told by many and said so myself, "This is THE BEST turkey I've EVER had!" What a relief! One thing I did different from the recipe was that I did not rinse the turkey after being in the brine. Why would you want to wash off all the flavor?? I put my turkey in a home improvement 5 gallon bucket and then in the refrigerator overnight. Not only will I be making this for other occasions, but this will be a Thanksgiving tradition now! Enjoy!!
