  • Reduce oven temperature to 350° and continue to roast turkey, basting with butter mixture every 10–15 minutes and rotating pan every 30 minutes or so if bird is browning unevenly, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breast registers 150° (temperature will continue to climb as the bird rests), 40–70 minutes longer. Transfer turkey to a cutting board and let rest at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour before carving.

ALTON BROWN'S BRINED TURKEY RECIPE - FOOD.COM
A salt water brine changes the cellular structure of the turkey and allows it to both hold in the moisture, as well as pull the seasonings deep into the meat. It's actually a very simple process that will yield beautiful and delicious results. My mom told me how good Alton's recipe was and that she was going to repeat it again this year. I decided to try it myself. It's, hands-down, the best roasted turkey we've ever had. The brine and aromatics create an amazing symphony of flavors that starts with the aroma of making the brine and follows right through to the rich, full gravy. I've also used this recipe on a whole fresh chicken by halving the recipe and adjusting the cooking times.

  • Roast the turkey on lowest level of the oven at 500 degrees F for 30 minutes. Insert a probe thermometer into thickest part of the breast and cover the breast with a foil triangle. Then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Set the thermometer alarm (if available) to 161 degrees F. A 14 to 16 pound bird should require a total of 2 to 2 1/2 hours of roasting. Let the turkey rest, loosely covered with foil or a large mixing bowl for 15 minutes before carving.

  • Combine all the brine ingredients in a large pot with 2 gallons cold water. Stir until the sugar and salt dissolve. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat and cover. Let cool completely. Pour the cooled brine into a large brining bag or pot. Add the turkey and refrigerate for 16 to 24 hours. When ready to roast, remove the turkey from the brine. Submerge the turkey in a pot of fresh cold water. Allow to sit in the clean water for 15 minutes to remove the excess salt. Preheat the oven to 275 ̊. Remove the turkey from the water, pat dry and place breast-side up on a roasting rack set in a large roasting pan. Using a vegetable peeler, shave off thick pieces of orange peel and slice them very thin (reserve the orange). Combine with the butter, thyme leaves, salt and pepper in a bowl. Smear the butter mixture all over the skin and in the crevices so that the turkey is totally covered. Slice the reserved orange into wedges and place in the cavity of the turkey along with the thyme sprigs. Cross the legs and tie them together with kitchen twine. Pour the chicken broth and wine into the bottom of the pan. Cover the whole pan with heavy- duty foil, tucking it underneath the pan. Roast for 10 minutes per pound (so, for a 12-pound turkey, about 2 hours). After the first stage of cooking, remove the turkey from the oven and discard the foil (the turkey will still be pale). Insert a meat thermometer into the thigh, increase the oven temperature to 350 ̊ and return the turkey to the oven. Continue roasting, basting the turkey every 30 minutes, until the thermometer reads 165 ̊ to 168 ̊, 2 to 2 1/2 more hours. Remove from the oven and cover loosely with clean foil. Let rest for 30 minutes before carving. Save the drippings for gravy.
