After screwing up my thanksgiving turkey cook with the Mad Max recipe I really wanted to try again!  This time I brined the turkey for 24 hours and Injected it with butter.  I know, Overkill but I wanted to be sure to get a moist and delicious turkey, however the rest of the recipe was mad max.  I  had a 15 pound turkey and it took about 5 hours at 300.  It came out delicious however, I did the gravy based on mad max but it came out WAY too salty.  Still haven't figured out how to make good gravy!

    So what did I do wrong on the gravy?  whats the trick?  I had ALOT of scorched stuff in the bottom of the pan.  I had the pan elevated on foil balls so that wasn't it.  Next time do I add broth mid cook?  from my concoction that is sitting on the stove?  came out wayyy to salty
