10-12 lb. turkey

Remove neck and giblets from turkey.

BRINE:

2 gallons water
1/2 c. pickling salt
2 c. quick tender salt
7-10 tbsp. liquid smoke

Use a plastic pail. Use a bowl to hold turkey in water. Soak turkey in brine 24 hours in a cool place. Remove and dry off with paper towel. Rub turkey with cooking oil. Bake breast side down in a 350 degree oven for 1 hour, reduce heat to 200 degrees for 10 hours, uncovered. I cover the wings with foil so they don't dry out. I bake it all night.
