THE BEST TURKEY BRINE



The Best Turkey Brine image

This is a recipe I have used over the years. The turkey always seems to come out moist, tender, and delicious. I think the original recipe may have came from Emeril, but I may have changed a couple things.

Categories     Whole Turkey

Time 20m

Yield 2 gallons

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup salt
1 cup brown sugar
2 oranges (quartered)
2 lemons (quartered)
3/4 ounce fresh poultry herbs, Packaged (Fresh Sage, Thyme, and Rosemary)
2 gallons cold water

Steps:

  • To make the brining solution, dissolve the salt and sugar in 2 gallons of cold water in a non-reactive container (such as a clean bucket or large stockpot, or a clean, heavy-duty, plastic garbage bag.) Add the oranges, lemons, and poultry herbs. I like to squeeze out some of the juices from the oranges and lemons into the solution before I add them. (Note: If you have a big turkey and need more brine, use 1/2 cup salt and 1/2 cup brown sugar for every additional gallon of water.).
  • Remove the neck, giblets, and liver from the cavity of the turkey and reserve. Rinse the turkey inside and out under cold running water.
  • Soak the turkey in the brine, covered and refrigerated, for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
  • Remove turkey from brine and rinse inside and out with cold water. Pat dry and prepare turkey according to your recipe.

MIGHTY FINE TURKEY BRINE



Mighty Fine Turkey Brine image

I mixed and matched and finally found the best way to brine a turkey. It adds flavor but not enough to overpower what you will use when you roast the turkey. It will literally leak when you cut it... that is how juicy this bird gets. You can also use this brine for other types of poultry.

Time 41m

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 cups water, divided

1 lemon, juiced
1 large Gala apple, quartered and chopped
1 navel orange, quartered, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Combine 2 1/2 cups water and salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until salt is dissolved, about 3 minutes.
  • Pour water and salt mixture into a 5-gallon bucket. Add 1 gallon of water.
  • Combine 2 1/2 cups water and brown sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Pour into the bucket.

  • Brined Roast Turkey Breast with Confit Legs. For the ultimate turkey breast, brine the breast meat overnight in a mixture of sugar, salt, water, and spices like allspice and juniper.
  • Malt-Beer-Brined Turkey with Malt Glaze. Tweak the traditional salt water brine here and use stout beer and barley malt syrup to add more richness to the solution.
  • Chile-Rubbed Turkey. In this Mexican take on the turkey, the brine calls for Tecate, a Mexican lager, and lime. You'll have the best leftovers in town (hello, turkey tacos).
  • My Favorite Roast Turkey. This classic roast turkey—from celebrity chef and poultry master Thomas Keller—is nothing short of epic. The 24-hour brine includes lots of lemon and thyme.
  • Boudin Blanc–Stuffed Turkey Breasts with Chestnuts. Yes, you're getting some quick fix and fatty moisture from the boudin blanc stuffing, but this turkey needs a brine to stay moist.
  • Juniper-Brined Roast Turkey with Chanterelle Mushroom Gravy. The wild mushroom gravy here is really exciting, but you'll want it as an accent, not as a cover-up for a dried-out bird.
  • Cider-Brined Turkey with Star Anise and Cinnamon. Bring apple cider to a boil with both nutty (cinnamon sticks) and spicy (star anise) ingredients to make this delectable overnight brine.
  • Herb-Brined Turkey with Pear Gravy. The pear gravy here gets an honorable mention, and it's a great complement with the simple brine of spicy peppercorns and sprigs of marjoram.
  • Cider-Brined-and-Glazed Turkey. Since you can both stuff and brine it, this cider-brined bird isn't like every other turkey. How? The cider brine contains a lot less salt than the standard brining solution.
  • Grilled Tea-Brined Turkey with Tea-and-Lemon Gravy. Step one: make the tea brine (yes, you read that right). Step two: brine this bird for up to 48 hours to turn up the flavor.
