unless you are getting a fresh turkey dont brine. the frozen are all injected with a salt solution and brining makes them way too salty


do a wet brine and put butter and herbs under the skin

I've brined previously frozen turkey with good results. I smoked it and it was a hit, so much so, that family members are asking me to do theirs for their dinners along with mine.

I would imagine that because I'm exposing it to a lower heat for a much longer duration it works better than roasting, in an oven, where it could end up being almost spongy?
