**Alky** · 11-22-2006, 08:59 AM

I'll be deep frying a few turkeys today... can't wait!

**pood** · 11-22-2006, 09:00 AM

anyone know if brining for 24 hours is too much?

for about 12 lb turkey, i used about cup of kosher salt + 112 floz of veg broth.

**Ben.Z** · 11-22-2006, 09:03 AM

**Sveindt Beindt** · 11-22-2006, 09:10 AM

Iam hungry look reel good

**Tom_PM** · 11-22-2006, 09:10 AM

24 hour brine could be a little much? I'll use about the same as you but with some brown sugar too and I'll put it in the brine tonight before bed and get it in the oven when I get up in the morning.

**BitAudioVideo** · 11-22-2006, 09:12 AM

its the upper part of the pork shoulder - think pulled pork =]

**munki** · 11-22-2006, 09:14 AM

All that smoking meat... and no stew simmering underneath?

Only possible thing I see wrong with that picture...

I always throw a nice big bowl of veggies and spices right under the meat while I'm smoking... good schitt.

in my brine I've got brown sugar, allspice, peppercorn, crystallized ginger, kosher salt + water + veg broth.

I guess I'll put the turkey in the brine 7-8 pm tonite.

**NickPapageorgio** · 11-22-2006, 09:34 AM

What does the brining do?

**Tom_PM** · 11-22-2006, 09:37 AM

The brine basically draws out moisture in the meat while your brine solution penetrates back into it. So the meat stays more moist with more flavor. The brine has to be more salty than the natural moisture for it to work.

k im on my way over

most are about the same. water, sugar, salt. you can add seasonings to taste. boil 1 gallon of water and add 1lb of kosher salt. add 1lb of sugar/honey/brown sugar.. let the salt/sugar disolve. add 2 quarts of vegetable stock. add the bird to a cooler and throw in a 7lb bag of ice.
