Directions:
Defrost Turkey and remove giblets, neck, and any plastic. Clean based on your preference. Boil 1 gallon of water and add brine mixture. Bring to a boil for 5 minutes and stir. Turn off heat and add ice. Allow this to come to room temp (add 2.5 gallons of water to this solution) Submerge turkey in brining liquid and keep cool for 24 hours (fridge or cooler)
After 24 hours, remove turkey and rinse/dry. Make injection by mixing water with injection mixture (OR use Tony's store bought creole butter injection) Inject Turkey evenly and then season generously.
Remove backbone from the turkey and flatten. Season and inject. Place onions, lemon, herbs, under the wire rack and rest the turkey on top. Place in a 400 - 425 degree oven and baste every 20 minutes with butter if desired. If the turkey gets too dark, cover with foil. The turkey is done once the white meat reaches 165 and dark meat reaches 175 internal temp. Roughly 10 minutes per lb - Zábava

Your thanksgiving turkey tips were a hit! The fresh herbs and citrus really made a difference. Brining and injecting was easier than I thought. And the Mac and cheese...none leftover. "Dropping fork"

Holy rusted metal batman that bird i
s the bomb! Amazing!
Looks great! Would be good to know how spatchcock affects cook temp and time. I'm definitely down to try this approach this week.
Cuts it almost in half
New to coking here the bag that had all those herbs in them did you make that bag personally or buy it in the store ?
Turkey looks delicious & moist…..I swear I’m always looking for the right word 😂
Yummy 😋
i was wondering if you had any recommendations for food prep gloves? an amazon link maybe? from your videos yours seem to really work and all the ones ive tried so far are filmsy and rip easily.
I know it's the holidays, but maybe you could do your take on Popeye's Ghost Pepper and Sweet and Spicy Wings! I have tried both and they're pretty good.
Lol the title cracks me up
lol brutally honest
