BRINING AND COOKING THE PERFECT TURKEY WITH DELICIOUS GRAVY
This turkey is incredibly moist and delicious. Even after heating up leftovers days later the meat is still so tender, moist and delicious. I make this primarily for Thanksgiving and have gotten nothing more than rave reviews every time! You can substitute turkey broth for chicken broth in this recipe. Brining cuts down the cooking time.

Steps:
- Pour 4 32-ounce cartons of low-sodium chicken broth into a large stock pot and stir in kosher salt, savory, thyme, sage, and rosemary. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and cook the brine for 7 minutes to blend flavors. Cool. Pour the mixture into a 5-gallon food-grade bucket, large cooler, or large brining bag. Stir apple juice and 1 gallon of water into the mixture. Place turkey, breast side down, into the brine and pour in more water if needed to cover. Place in refrigerator and brine for at least 36 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Remove turkey and discard used brine. Rinse turkey and pat dry with paper towels. Place the turkey with breast side down on a roasting rack set into a roasting pan. Stuff the bird with 2 onions, 4 stalks of celery, and 4 carrots; place remaining 2 onions, 4 stalks of celery, and 4 carrots into the roasting pan surrounding the turkey. Brush outside of the turkey with 1/4 cup melted butter and pour white cooking wine and 2 32-ounce cartons of chicken broth into the pan.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes; baste with pan juices. If skin begins to darken too quickly, place a tent of aluminum foil over the bird. Continue roasting for 1 1/2 more hours, basting every 30 minutes. Turn the turkey over so it is breast side up; brush with remaining 1/4 cup melted butter. Continue roasting, basting every 30 minutes, until an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh, not touching bone, reads 180 degrees F (80 degrees C), about 1 more hour (3 hours roasting time in all).
- Remove turkey and set aside while you make the gravy. Strain all the pan drippings through a mesh strainer into a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer. Whisk 2 cups water, 1 32-ounce carton turkey broth, and cornstarch together in a bowl until smooth. Whisk the cornstarch mixture into the hot pan drippings and cook until thickened, whisking constantly, about 5 minutes. Let gravy cool to thicken slightly. If desired, use a gravy separator to remove excess fat. Serve turkey with gravy.

Steps:
- For the turkey breast: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Break down the turkey by removing the breasts while keeping the skin on. Remove the turkey legs and thighs and set aside.
- Sprinkle the turkey breasts on both sides with the salt and pepper. Heat a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat, and add the butter. Melt the butter and cook, stirring frequently to it butter does not burn, until it starts to brown, about 5 minutes. Once the butter stops bubbling, add the turkey breasts skin-side down and turn the pan down to medium. Sear for about 5 minutes, then flip the breasts over and cook until golden brown. Add the whole garlic cloves and sage to the pan and baste a few times. Transfer the pan to the oven for 8 minutes.
- Flip the breasts back over to skin-side down and cook, basting, on the stovetop, about 4 minutes.
- Finish in the oven skin-side down until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 160 degrees F, another 5 to 7 minutes. Flip and baste, then remove from the pan.
- Let rest 4 to 5 minutes. (Leave the oven on.)
- For the turkey legs: Sprinkle the legs and thighs with the salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to coat the bottom of the skillet. Add the legs and thighs and sear until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side, then remove the legs and thighs and place in a pressure cooker. Remove half of the oil from the skillet and turn the heat down to medium. Add the garlic and onions to the skillet and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the garlic and onions to the pressure cooker. Add the wine to the skillet and deglaze, using a spatula or wooden spoon to get all the brown bits off the bottom of the skillet. Then, add the pan sauce to the pressure cooker along with the stock, sage and bay leaves. Seal the pressure cooker and cook according to the pressure cooker instructions on medium for 25 minutes.
- Remove the legs and thighs to a bowl. Remove the meat from the bones and shred. Set aside.
- Strain out the juice and set aside to make gravy.
- For the hash: Mix together the oil, salt, pepper, garlic, parsnips, carrots, onions and celery root in a bowl. Spread out on a sheet tray and bake until tender and starting to brown, 10 to 14 minutes. Meanwhile, brown the butter in a small pot over low heat. Toss the veggies and shredded turkey leg meat in the brown butter along with cider vinegar and sage.
- For the gravy: Bring your strained stock to a simmer in a medium saucepot. Melt the butter in a small pot and whisk in the flour and vinegar. Cook until deep brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Whisk the roux into the stock and bring to a rolling boil, then boil for about 5 minutes. Season to taste.
- Place the hash on the plate. Slice the turkey breast on a bias and lay over the top of the hash. Drizzle the gravy over that. Top with the chives.
