Frozen turkey breast and brining

Stuart

I just bought a frozen 7 1/2# turkey breast and want to smoke it on Sunday. Would it serve me right to thaw it in a brining bath rather than just regular water? Do I have time to get adequate effect from the salt?[p]Thanks, Stuart

<p />stuart,[p]If its a Butter Ball or the like, they are often injected with juices and I am not sure that brining an injected bird will do much help and may do more harm by drawing out some juices. Not sure on that. I do turkey breasts all the time and I always thaw them before tossing on the Egg in a Vrack indirect. Be carefull, turkey absorbs smoke really easy so using no wood will give a hint of smoke and a chunk or two of pecan will make it pretty smokey. [p]Tim
