Categories     Barbecue,Mains

Yield Serves 6.

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups water
1/4 cup kosher salt*
1/2 cup granulated sugar*
12 sprigs fresh thyme
3 bay leaves
6 bone-in turkey thighs with skin (about 4 lb/2 kg)
1 tsp sage, crumbled
1/2 tsp dry mustard
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
Mustard Barbecue Sauce*

Steps:

  • To prepare brine, combine water, salt, sugar, thyme and bay leaves in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat and simmer, stirring, until salt and sugar are dissolved. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  • Pour brine into a heatproof bowl and cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally. Refrigerate until cold.
  • Pour brine into an extra-large heavy zip-lock plastic bag. Submerge turkey thighs in brine, adding cold water if necessary to cover turkey. Seal bag and place in a large food-safe container. Refrigerate for 4 hours.

  • Serve with Mustard Barbecue Sauce.
