That's interesting! I've brined chicken, but it's not common here and I've never heard of anybody doing a turkey. I'm sure it keeps it a lot moister and more tasty. Me personally, I don't bother with turkey at Christmas - last time I did one was the year my mother had had a heart attack and we hosted Christmas, and that could be 20 years ago!
