Directions
Want an easy turkey recipe thats moist and flavorful? Try dry brining! Rather than wet brining a turkey, dry brining is so much easier and less messy! This is how I am making my turkey again this year! It takes 4 days to brine, so I am starting on Sunday. You can watch me on my Instagram Stories if you want to follow along in my kitchen!,,
