Yield 1 (20-pound) turkey; 15 to 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 quarts water
2 cups kosher salt
2 cups pure maple syrup
2 bunches fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Place all the ingredients, except the turkey, in a large pot and bring to a boil, stirring until the salt dissolves. Remove from the heat and let cool.

  • Roast the turkey as you normally would, approximately 15 minutes a pound. Let stand for 30 minutes before carving.
