This is a great deal if you figure that 20 pounds of apple pellets is $15, brine kit is usually $14 and a food grade bucket is $10.
Complete Turkey Brining Kit, made in USA:
Traditional Herb Brine
20 pounds of Apple Pellets
5 gallon food safe Bucket
Food safe Turkey brining bag
This is sized for up to a 25 pound bird. If you spatchcock it (you should do this no matter what size bird you get), you can fit a much larger bird.

This is Menards, so no mail-order, it's a Brick & Mortar deal.
DON'T pay the "pick up fee" for having an employee go pick up your bucket.
Just walk in and look for the pallet of them in the BBQ section. You can't miss it.
Rebate is the usual Menards store credit. It comes as a postcard; so don't let your kids throw it away as junk mail.

This makes the bird cook in 1/2 the time (thus staying juicy) and makes the breast and legs finish at the same time.
Turkey is not one of the "low and slow" proteins. Smoke it at 325-350*F so it does not dry out.
Save the removed spine and put it in the drip pan for extra rich gravy and then use it for soup stock.

If your snips are tight and need a little lube, use Mineral Oil; because it's non-toxic.
Spatchcocking is great but I just do "whole bird" at 13lbs and under. Still cooks fast and stays very juicy.

Or just use a little canola oil.... so you don't have to go out and buy something special.
I just figure most people have Mineral Oil around for cutting boards, butcherblock countertops, high end knives, guitar fretboards, or using it as a laxative.
