Ok, bird one is done.
I do go off the reservation on the above recipe. I brine with a jar you buy on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/Rodelle-Turkey-Brine-25-Ounce/dp/B00O2ZXPEM/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=turkey+brine&qid=1574977402&s=grocery&sr=1-6
I stuff with a peeled orange, an onion semi quartered (cut halfway through) and one of those clumps of poultry herbs from the grocery store.
And for a 17 lb bird I do hour and fifteen down, twist on the side for 30 minutes each and breast up for one hour tented and un tented for 30 minutes.
Norman Rockwell would be proud.
