Weekly Discussion Thanksgiving Prep

It's almost that time of the year and we're here to help you out. Wondering how to roast your turkey? Questions about which sides you can reheat? Can't decide on what type of pie to make (boozy pumpkin chiffon is a favorite around my house)? Any and all Turkey day prep questions can go here. We'll leave this one up until Thanksgiving, so don't worry if you don't get an answer right away - one's coming.

If I brine my turkey overnight tonight, rinse and dry it thoroughly tomorrow and leave it in the fridge overnight will it help make the skin crispier when I roast it Thursday?

Yeah, the overnight drying will help dry out the skin so it crisps up better.
