Need advice about brining turkey BREAST

[dit]

There aren't that many of us this year, so I am cooking the breast only. I got a frozen butterball whole breast. I have been reading about brining, but the butterball site says it's not for frozen ones. Does anyone have any advice comments about brining a turkey breast once it has thawed? I would love to try this to make it really moist. Thanks in advance for responses?

Once it's thawed, it's no longer frozen. I've had no problem or bad results brining thawed fowl. It's what I'm going to do this week, in fact. Happy Thanksgiving.

I haven't read the Butterball web site, but it may be telling you there is no need to brine the turkey breast as it has already been brined for you --- It's a Butterball --- Most of their, (and other premium brands) frozen products have been brined --- Many of the "Fresh" ones have not --- Cooked perfectly it will be really moist ---

Buterball's frozen turkeys are already brined. Their fresh ones are not.
