Mighty Fine Turkey Brine

  • Turkey
Mighty Fine Turkey Brine

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.

Ingredients

  • 5 cups water, divided

  • 1 cup salt

  • 1 gallon water

  • 1 cup packed dark brown sugar

  • 2 quarts apple juice (not from concentrate)

  • 1 pint whiskey (such as Jack Daniel's®)

  • 1 lemon, juiced

  • 1 large Gala apple, quartered and chopped

  • 1 navel orange, quartered, or more to taste
