    You mentioned dried out white meat but a turkey to be safe can be 157 for only 50 seconds according to the USDA. At 165 less than 10 seconds. You are right about carryover so if you pull it at 157-159 your breast will not be dry. My executive chef brother explained to me the time/temperature correlation (I was not aware) when I saw him remove a tray of chicken breast in the restaurant at 155. Thanks for sharing your awesome video.

    Thanks, @Ry. Perfect timing as I was looking for a brine for our turkey. Last year I cut up the turkey prior to cooking (which I was a huge fan of) and dry brined, but my Wife is set on me cooking the Turkey whole this year so this post is perfect and perfectly timed. Have a great Thanksgiving friends!

    looks great! Thanks for this video Ry, love the props to Malcom, I remember that video and have it saved.
    This will be my 2nd year smoking a liquid brined turkey, was hooked after last year!
    I used an oven bag to brine in, worked great!
    I highly recommend using the wet brine as well and I have worked with my brine recipe so that it has about half the sodium as a normal brine and I can go 18-24 hours with no rinse and get a great flavor and a perfect amount of salt with a rub and a "juicalanche" all over. 😉👍
    Thank you Ry, have learned a lot from you! Happy Thanksgiving!!!

    Nice video, but makes it confusing using liters vs cups. For most people in the USA we use quarts and Gallons. Lots of video's do both metric and English unit conversions to make it easier for both systems.

    • @CookingWithRy
      @CookingWithRy  Před 2 lety

      I rarely think of time when doing poultry. It's always about temperature. But I usually assume it's going to be 3-4 hours just for planning purposes. I chose 300 just to have a bit of a quicker cook :)
