I'm doing this too Michael, I love the food science Kenji explained in the video
It makes perfect sense to me. Since I have spatchcocked chicken, but never a turkey, this will be fun.
I also like what he says about the dry brine, something I have not done because soaking a turkey in a tub of water did not make sense to me. Kenji explains about the added water in the turkey as it soaks it up, and THAT made sense. So dry brine it is going to be this year.
