A Christian is one who recognizes Jesus as the Christ, the Son of the living God, as God manifested in the flesh, loving us and dying for our redemption; and who is so affected by a sense of the love of this incarnate God as to be constrained to make the will of Christ the rule of his obedience, and the glory of Christ the great end for which He lives.

INSTRUCTIONS

After reading several Cook's Illustrated articles about the benefits of
brining chicken and turkey, I have been converted to their way of thinking.
It does make the meat moister and tastier. The standard solution they
recommend, and I've been using, for a 6 - 8 pound turkey breast or a
chicken is:
Soak for 5 hours.
I would appreciate your thoughts on how to apply this "formula" to an 18-21
lb. whole turkey. I believe that the solution would remain the same but I'm
not sure how to adjust the soaking solution. Would 5 hours still allow the
solution to thoroughly penetrate the entire turkey? How long might be
enough? Has anyone read any Cook's Illustrated articles on brining an
entire turkey and care to share it with me?
