HERB-BRINED TURKEY | SOUTHERN LIVING
One serving of this juicy and flavor-filled herb-brined turkey will quickly quiet all those who complain that turkey is dry and tasteless. The key to a successful roasted turkey is in the prep work - everything from choosing the right bird, adequate thawing time, a healthy dose of seasoning, and the correct time in the oven, all combine to create a succulent and savory Thanksgiving centerpiece that can hold its own alongside the favorite holiday casseroles and side dishes. Before roasting, the turkey rests in an herb turkey brine which imparts extra flavor and moisture, which in turn helps the bird stay moist during cook time.

- 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.
