There has been a lot of confusion about this. You marinate the turkey in
your garage in a covered polyethylene food grade pail beginning thanksgiving
and later. The garage temp. should be 36F or lower. The concentration of
salt in the brine must be 10% or greater to prevent little bugs from doing
you harm. You do this overnight, for one night only, when the temp. is
lowest.
It works. You won't get infected.
