How do you brine it?  We're going to fry one for dinner this year and I'm looking to kick it up a notch from my usual of just stuffing cloves of garlic under the skin. 

I'll get the recipe from my mom and I'll message you. It really does make a difference. My friend got the recipe and he said it was the greatest thing ever because the meat was so tender.

Kosher salt and half a lemon makes an amazing scrub

It's bath night. I'll give it a shot

If you have cast iron skin, you will be amazed.

The recipe I'm reading starts the turkey

Can you post the link? 
 

My wife and I are looking for a new recipe this year. All I know we actually do is add a sheet ton of butter everywhere on top and under the skin. It’s always juicy.

kosher salt/little warm water and a sponge. kosher salt used as an abrasive is the real deal. or make a paste with baking soda and a little water, smear and let it sit for ten minutes then scrub.

My cast iron skillet agrees

I'm doing 2 turkey breasts this year, one smoked and one in a propane smoker that claims you can air fry a turkey in. 

I never have cooked a turkey in my life. A lot has to do with me being single. My mom and sister both make the best turkey

Deep fried turkey. Had it once and it was phenomenal 

My Mom's recipe for brining if deep frying your turkey

2 quarts apple cider
1 cup of brown sugar
1 cup of kosher salt
1/4 cup of black peppercorns
4 bay leaves
1 cinnamon stick
1 tsp. whole cloves
4 quarts of chicken broth or water (You can go full broth, full water or half and half)

Bring 4 cups of broth/water to a boil.

Add everything except cider and rest of broth/water.

Stir until dissolved.

Let cool and stir in rest of broth/water and cider.

Place turkey in stock pot breast side down.

Pour in brine.

Add extra broth/water until covered.

Leave in brine for 24 hours in the fridge.

If deep frying, remove turkey from brine 24 hours before putting the turkey into deep fryer.

Pat dry and place in fridge uncovered until ready to fry.

I always brine my turkey...Im roasting my bird and stuffing one end with giblet stuffing and the other end oyster stuffing...i put it on 225 with buter under the skin and rubbed with seasoning and butter,  ill uncover it in the morning to brown the skin...just like my mom did.

Is oyster stuffing just regular stuffing, but with oysters? Or do you have to add any other special ingredients?

Its just oysters instead of giblets

I do not use mayo.  Its just like regular stuffing but instead of using giblet meat i use chopped up oysters.

Putting the buttered garlic and herb paste under the skin and down both sides of the breast was harder than I thought.  I didn't tear the skin thank goodness but I didn't get it all the way back in the bird.  Hope it doesn't result in part of the meat having  a stronger taste than another. 🙄

step one. time to brine.

I'm having Shepard's Pie eff yo turkey! Actually I'm the only one in my small arse family that actually likes it so I request Shepard's pie since I'm the one that has to go without turkey 

Chickie made me a shoo fly pie for my coffee tomorrow morning. 

Haven't even cut in yet, but this looks promising :drool:

Cooked a whole turkey in a little propane smoker/oil-less turkey fryer, and a breast in the offset smoker. Finished the breast in the fryer to crisp up the skin. Both were amazing, especially for my first time cooking a turkey in anything

As long as the turkey is with the gravy that is something else!
