[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Too much salt in our dry brine. Not so bad for the turkey itself but pan drippings were inedible. Fortunately, we did the stuffing on the side. I also had made a stock from the neck before, so I could make gravy easily.[/quote] Any time you brine, the pan drippings are going to be salty. If you brine you should plan on making gravy from separate stock, not from the drippings. [/quote] I made stock with no salt from the neck and back ahead of time, then made gravy from that stock. I brushed the excess salt off of the turkey before baking it, and added a bit of water to the roasting pan several times. I added the drippings to the unsalted gravy, and it came out really well![/quote] This is helpful information but that neck freaks me out every year.[/quote]
