Roast Turkey with Herbs

“A glistening roast turkey, while making a striking centerpiece of most holiday tables, often becomes horribly dry after hours in the oven. The secret to a juicy turkey is to invest some time soaking your bird in a saltwater solution known as brine. For this recipe, all you need to brine your own is a clean garbage bag, two gallons of water, and two cups of kosher salt. Place the turkey and the brining solution in the garbage bag. Then place the bag in a roasting pan and leave it in the refrigerator to soak overnight. If you intend to buy a bigger or smaller bird, figure on 1 1/2 pounds per person.”

This recipe is fantastic! I didn't have the ancho peper, and I used dried herbs rather than fresh,but this was sooo good. my husband and friends loved it and I'm pretty sure it will be my holiday recipe from now on. thanks!

Absolutely the best! I soaked it in a garbage bag in a bucket overnight, added the herbs and rub, and got rave reviews. People who don't like turkey because it's too dry like this turkey! I made it for Thanksgiving and am looking forward to making it again for Christmas.

Delicious turkey! I have made turkey with a more complicated brine - this was simple, delicious and easy. Next time I may try the citrus brine just to compare - 5 stars for both ease and taste...always brine - it's the way to ensure juciness!

This recipe was fantastic. The brining technique made it the juiciest turkey I have EVER eaten.
