Steps:
- Mix brine ingredients into water and stir until salt is completely dissolved. Place rinsed turkey into brine mixture in a food-safe container (roasting bags are good) with enough brine mixture to cover completely when bag is cinched. Refrigerate bird in brine mixture for about 12 hours.
- Drain bird and pat dry. Meanwhile, soak mesquite chips in enough water to cover for approximately 30 minutes. Drain chips and place in small handfuls onto foil and make pouches with little holes pricked in the foil with a fork.
- Prepare grill for indirect heat using a drip pan. Place liquid of your choice into drip pan (water or low carb beer is good). Rub turkey breast with softened butter on the outside and season with salt and pepper (add garlic if you like). Oil grill screen and put a pouch of mesquite chips directly on the coals.
- Place turkey over the drip pan and cover grill. Grill for several hours, turning turkey as needed, and adding a pouch of chips and a few new coals about every 30-45 minutes to maintain a steady heat. Cook until meat in the deepest part of the breast reads 170°F (you will need an instant read thermometer for this). Allow bird to sit for 15-30 minutes, undisturbed, before carving to maintain juiciness.

PELLET GRILL CAJUN DRY-BRINED CHICKEN
Dry-brining is a technique that is less fussy (and messy!) than wet-brining and results in a flavorful smoked chicken that is seasoned throughout. You could dry-brine with just salt and pepper, but we added some zesty Cajun spices and a creamy remoulade to make this pellet-grilled chicken a real smoke show (pun intended).

Steps:
- The day before cooking the chicken, pat it dry with paper towels and put on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet.
- Stir together the smoked paprika, granulated garlic, onion powder, sugar, oregano, thyme, cayenne pepper, 2 tablespoons salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl. Rub a generous amount in the cavity of the chicken then sprinkle the remaining Cajun seasoning all over the outside of the bird to create a thick coating on the skin. Refrigerate, uncovered, at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours.
- Combine the mayonnaise, parsley, scallions, cornichons, mustard, ketchup, capers, garlic and hot sauce in a medium bowl. Stir to combine then season with salt and black pepper. Refrigerate the remoulade, covered, until ready to serve.
- Let the chicken rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling.
- Preheat a pellet grill to 400 degrees F (see Cook's Note).
- Brush the outside of the chicken all over with the melted butter. Tuck the wings behind the chicken's back and tie the legs together with kitchen twine. Place the chicken directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and cook until the internal temperature of the thickest part of one of the breasts reaches 160 degrees F, 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes.
- Remove the chicken to a cutting board and let rest for 15 minutes. Serve the chicken whole or carved into parts, with soft dinner rolls and the remoulade on the side.
GRILLED BRINED TURKEY
Steps:
- Bring 2 gallons of water to boil in a large stockpot. Stir in salt and sugar until completely dissolved. Remove from the heat and add the diced carrots, onion, celery, leeks, spices and fresh herbs. Place the stockpot in refrigerator until cold.
- Remove the giblets from the turkey. Add the turkey to the stockpot and place a plate on top to weigh the turkey down to insure full immersion. Refrigerate the whole turkey for 72 hours. Remove from brine and place the turkey in a large, disposable, aluminum-roasting pan. Allow the turkey to come to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, start the grill. When the coals are white hot, bank them up high along the perimeter of the grill so they form a circle. Place the roasting pan on the grill rack and cover with the lid. Control the temperature of the grill by opening and closing the vents. If the grill is too hot, close the vents slightly, but not all of the way. If the grill is too cold, open the vents. While the turkey is cooking, baste frequently with olive oil or butter and pan juices. It may be necessary to add more coals during the cooking process. If so, fire the coals in a cone separately and add them when they are hot.
- It's important to know that brined turkeys cook more rapidly than un-brined turkeys. So you should check the internal temperature of the turkey after 1 1/2 hours grilling time. Remove the turkey from the grill when the deepest part of the thigh reaches 160 F. Let the turkey rest for 20 minutes before carving.
BRINED TURKEY BREAST WITH PEACH ROSEMARY GLAZE
This makes such delicious and moist turkey! I have changed the glaze before using dark cherries and cranberries instead of the peaches and that is scrumptious as well. I had to roast it longer to get to 165 degrees, about 40 minutes more, so you may want to plan on extra time. Prep time does not include brining time. This is from Sunny Anderson of Food Network.

BRINED TURKEY BREAST WITH MAPLE GLAZE
This recipe comes from Cuisine at Home. The turkey is well seasoned and moist. I used the insert for my crock pot to brine the turkey. It was the perfect size. The breast should be done in approximately 2 hours. The time given does allow for brining for 2 hours and 2 hours cooking time.
