Citrus Turkey Brine
i love this recipe! however, i do change it a bit. i add 4 cloves (you can leave 'em out) and zest half the oranges and lemons before throwing them in. i start with a half gallon of water and bring to a boil, then turn the heat off and let steep for an hour. this really blends and brings the flavors out!. then, i add ice until cooled and measures the gallon and a half. i put the turkey in a roasting bag to brine and as i pour the brine in, i make sure the citrus and onions go in the cavity. you can put in the fridge, or keep cool overnight on ice. smoke over cherrywood. Fantastic!
