I would always stuff the bird with a few slices of bacon too…..
I BBQ Smoked some game hens in a brine (my first brine) and although the meat was juicy I think the smoke over powered the flavors of the brine. I used dry herbs from Knox Spice Co and cooked them on low and cooled before adding to the brine. I will have to try it again without BBQ smoking them.
thanks for the nicely done show and the inspiration for Brine!
You’re welcome! Glad you enjoy the recipes!
Hey Jason, As for a kid like me, I’m unable to cook a turkey but seriously, thanks for giving out really simple recipes in your web, like “Cheese Omelet” and “Garlic Mashed Potato” It really helps me.

What a great question. The herbs definitely add flavor to the brine which transfers a small amount of flavor into the bird. It is not an over powering flavor by any means.
nicely done, thanks for sharing!
I was wondering how soluble the flavors from the fresh herbs in the brine were? Do they transfer much flavor into the bird and final product?
Thanks again!

Lol! To be honest with you, I have never deep fried a turkey. One thing, if the turkey is opened up like you say, it will cook a bit faster.
This year I bought one of those turkey fryers. My Mother roasted one in the oven, and I handled the deep fryer Her turkey looked picture perfect, but mine was so juicy. On my turkey I removed the therm and wire ring holding the legs together before dropping it in the oil. I’m not sure if those pieces are a problem or not. The therm might melt? The wire brace might not be a problem, taking the wire off made the turkey spread its legs like a virgin on prom night though. What do you recommend Jason
no audio just background music……
Thanks Paul! I haven’t personally tried a wild turkey before but would love to. Just don’t have them around here. Let me know how they taste! Jason
LOL!

hello
Yes! We recorded a video for this. Just have to get it online. Thanks! Jason
Thank you. Hope you enjoy the recipe. In the meantime, I’ll check out your channel. Cheers, Jason
how big is that turkey? and how would the time change?
I love your videos
they are very useful. And please chef, can you show us how to make a nice gravy for that meal? Thanks chef
OMG! All these turkeys I see on YT look so much better than what my parents made. Not to knock their turkey, since it was very juicy, but I love doing things differently than just stuffing with onions and carrots and seasoning the top and roasting it. I love how almost each one here shows a different technique that I wish my parents would use…like cooking it on the grill with a spice run, or brining it…They so boring. hehe…
Nice job. Take a look at my channel and tell me what ya think.

Hello. During cooking, It’s when you collect the juices from the bottom of the roasting pan with a baster. Then you drizzle these juices over the turkey.
Absolutely amazing!
what does it mean to bast a turkey?
Oh this turkey was so delicious! So moist and the meat was full of flavor. Best Thanksgiving dinner yet!
I don’t know why i can hear it fine
It’s a Turkey not a chicken…
A turkey ain’t a chicken lol ^_^.
