    You can always give Rudolph's Market a try, might be pricey.

    I might be the only one but (IMO) with grilling / smoking spatchcocked 400 and raised direct after adding coffee rub I really cant tell much at all difference in super high priced turkeys and $.89  to $1.18 cent birds as long as they are in the 11/12 lb size. (sorry for the long sentence) (IMO) the size of the bird makes more difference after doing the all the above and not forgetting the cherry/pecan wood chips for  smoke.

    $1/lb. for brining... that's crazy!

    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.
