Reply to comment by twowrist in Boston has the most expensive Thanksgiving dinners in America by Pepscoable

I was actually going to do this but Tuesday the turkey was still half frozen so I thought the wet brine would help to work on thawing it out some more which did work. Hopefully it’ll work out well in the cook but only time will tell. I’m smoking it this year on my pellet grill

I don’t know what I would have done if I had to buy frozen, because I only found out late last week that we would be hosting Thanksgiving, and defrosting a turkey in the refrigerator is so unpredictable. But yeah, any sort of water bath should speed up defrosting.

I knew I was cooking and planned ahead buying the turkey two weeks ago and taking it out of the freezer on Saturday but I guess my fridge is set too cold lol
