Raleigh, North Carolina

The state capital and one of the points that makes up North Carolina’s Research Triangle, Raleigh is home to a half-dozen colleges including North Carolina State University. This being North Carolina, the rallying cry in Raleigh is for basketball…and barbecue. And not just any barbecue. Pork barbecue is the name of the game. Pulled pork sandwiches are a favorite, topped with a heaping helping of coleslaw. Pork ribs and hush puppies excel here too. On a hot day, nothing goes down better with North Carolina barbecue or a fried chicken dinner than a tall glass of iced tea. If you’re looking for trendy dining in the City of Oaks, the gentrifying Glenwood South neighborhood offers anything from wine bars to sports bars. The enormous State Farmers Market is held daily and shows off the region's bounty, from organic fruits and veggies to fresh-baked cakes and lovingly preserved jams and jellies.

Out of this World Turkey Brine

Reviewed on Nov. 28, 2009 by ThePilot'sWife

Ok, I'm hooked and convinced. I tried this for Thanksgiving and my turkey was delicious!!!! It was so moist and juicy. My husband said this is definitely a winner and it was soooo easy!! My brother in law, a former cook, raved about how good it was. I admit, I was a bit of a chicken and only used 1 1/4 cup of the Kosher salt because I was worreied it might be salty. It was perfect and I could tell that the extra 1/4 C of salt would have been just fine. I will be brining my turkey for Christmas too! Thanks for such an awesome recipe.
