Ingredients

  • Pit Boss Pit Master Turkey Bucket Kit
  • One 11 - 14 lb. turkey
  • Water

Directions

  • Combine the brine blend with 4 cups water in a large pot and bring to a boil for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, then add 1 gallon of cold water and refrigerate until the mixture has cooled entirely.
  • Place the turkey in the brining bag breast side down and set in a large pan or bucket.
  • Pour the cooled brine mixture into the bag until the turkey is fully submerged, pouring in additional water as necessary, and seal the bag tight.
  • Place the sealed brining bag in the refrigerator to brine 30-60 minutes per pound or overnight.
  • After brining, remove the turkey from the bag, rinse the inside and outside of the bird thoroughly and pat dry.
  • Drizzle olive oil over the turkey and rub generously with poultry rub. For best results, season under the skin as well.
  • Place the turkey into your Pit Boss Grill and insert the temperature probe into the deepest part of the breast. Cook at 275°F for 3.5 to 4 hours or until the breast reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Remove the turkey from the Pit Boss Grill and let rest for 20-30 minutes.
  • Carve and Enjoy!
