Brining is basically this: a bunch of spices and water that your turkey sits in for, like, 30 hours. Apparently the meat soaks up all these spices and gets extra juicy. All I know is that it was kind of a pain and a bit more labor intensive than I realized. Better be yummy.
what the hell does that even mean? I'm a terrible wife.
