5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect solution for mess-free turkey brining!, June 12, 2008

I am so glad I found this item last year! It is a nice, heavy bag. The ziplocking mechanism works great and holds up very well.

Get a 5 gallon bucket (you can buy a brand new, clean one for cheap at many stores, incl. WM) and put the open bag in the bucket (sort of like you are lining the bucket). Lower the turkey in and then pour your brining solution in and zip 'er up! Then you can just put the top on your 5 gallon bucket and put it in a cool place for the night. I laid some Cryopaks on top of the bucket to give it extra coolness and put it in my laundry room. It made it so easy. I believe I got that tip from Alton Brown.

My bucket didn't even get dirty. When it was time to rinse off the turkey I just brought the bagged turkey up to my sink, stood it up in the sink and ran water in it. Then I poked a hole in the back side of the bag (it's not like you are going to use it again!) and kept running water to get a good rinse. That way I didn't have to handle the raw poultry excessively (which skeeves me out big time!) and I was able to adequately rinse it before lifting it out and plopping that big dude into his roasting pan.

I was not sure what type of brining bag I would need for 16 lb turkey. Well, this bag was definitely big enough for any turkey size. Its sealed very easily and made brining a very simple task. Hope this helps to any who are not sure which product is best.

3.0 out of 5 stars Be Careful. Product Description Is Wrong, November 22, 2010

This review is from: Elizabeth Karmel's 24-inch Turkey Brining Bag (Kitchen)

My rating is based on the description and not the actual product because I have not yet used it. I needed a large brining bag for a 22 pound turkey. The product description says, "Extra heavy weight with gusseted bottom for easier storage; holds up to a 25 pound turkey with brining solution". When the product arrived, it clearly states on the box that it will hold up to a 20 pound turkey with brining solution. In my case, the 5 pound difference is a big deal since my turkey is over the 20 pound limit. It is a heavy bag and looks as if it will work great, just not for my 22 pound bird.
