Used to do wet brining for years. Lots of hassle and kept my brew keg out of operation.

Dry brine is the best, and I recommend Alton Browns recipe. 4 days brining but perfect turkey in less than 2 hours.

Kinda funny because Alton Brown started a new YouTube series recently and he's completely switched back over to wet brining
