Should I Marinate Or Brine My Turkey?
It depends on your personal preference and the time you have. Both methods can add flavor and moisture to your turkey. Marinating involves soaking the turkey in a solution of herbs, spices, and liquids for a few hours or overnight, while brining involves soaking the turkey in a saltwater solution for 12-24 hours. Brining is generally recommended for larger birds, as it helps to keep them moist during the long cooking process. However, marinating can also be a great option if you prefer a specific flavor profile.
