Thanksgiving Turkey Recipes can be cooked in many ways. I have a lot Turkey Recipes, but what I like about this Recipe is that it combines my 2 favorite ways to Cook Turkey, Hot & Fast and Smoked. The best thing about smoking your Turkey hot and fast is that you always end up with a Moist Turkey, and the Turkey absorbs the right amount of smoke.
I usually make my own Brine when I cook Turkeys, but I went with a store bought brine, and used buttermilk instead of regular water or apple juice. The suggestion to use a buttermilk brine for my Turkey was given to me by Dave, the owner of Miners Mix Seasonings. Check them out, they have lot's of great seasonings https://www.minersmix.com/

Ingredients for basic Turkey Brine:
Below is the recipe inspired me. Get as creative as you like
* 2 gallons water
* 2 Cups Kosher salt
* 1 Cup Sugar
* 3 to 4 Sprigs Rosemary
* 3 to 4 sprigs sage
* 3 to 4 Sprigs Thyme

Do Not Overthink your Turkey Brine. As long as it adds moisture and has the flavor profile you like, it is good to go.
