Default 1st BBQ 2014 Brined turkey

8 lb turkey defrosted
Brine
2 cups coarse salt
1 cup sugar
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 liter apple juice
spices to your taste
Brine the turkey in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours turning once
Rinse bird allow to air dry for one hour
Mix 1/2 cup butter with a flat beer and heat on stove until butter melts, inject turkey with the mixture allow the left over to mixture to cool then rub the butter over the turkey
Cook in preheated BBQ at 325 over direct heat for about 3 hours check internal temperature
I used the A-MAZE-N smoker tube gives of smoke for 5 hours on one fill would also work good for cold smoking.
And enjoy !
