    Traeger Orange Brine and Turkey Rub Kit Amazon product with packaging and text overlay

    Making a smoked Thanksgiving dinner this year? See a review of the Amazon traeger orange brine and turkey rub kit you can buy online for smoking a whole turkey. 

    Traeger orange brine and turkey rub kit
    Today I’m sharing what you need to brine a turkey before smoking it, particularly the Traeger kit for Thanksgiving.

    Disclosure: sometimes Traeger or other smoked food companies sends me things to try, other times I buy it. All opinions are my own.

    Does this kit come with a brine bag?

    No, this brine turkey rub kit does not come with a bag. 

    I recommend that you either purchase one separately or you could use a large cooler like a Yeti cooler.

    Just make sure that your turkey can fit in your cooler. 

    Buy Traeger bringing kit on Amazon: see the Traeger Smoked Turkey Rub And Brine

    Would it be good for a baked turkey?

    Yes, you can use the brine and then bake your turkey if you do not have a smoker. 

    The idea behind any brine is to add an extra layer of tastiness and juiciness to your turkey. 

    See how to roast bone in turkey breast in the oven…

    Can I use this brine kit to deep fry a turkey?

    Yes, of course. 

    Same as baking a turkey, first brine infuses your bird, which is why you should brine your turkey regardless of how you actually cook it. (ie, smoking, baking or deep frying)

    What are the Traeger orange brine and turkey rub kit instructions?

    Steps for starting with Traeger brine from the kit…

    1. Mix brine seasoning with one quart of water
    2. Boil for 5 mins
    3. Remove from the heat and add 1 gallon of cold water (Optional – add 1 cup of bourbon)
    4. Refrigerate until completely cooled
    5. Place in turkey breast side down
    6. Pour the cooled brine mix over the turkey 
    7. Add enough cold water until the entire turkey is submerged 
    8. Refrigerate for 24 hours

    How do you dry brine a turkey?

    Here are the Traeger kit instructions for dry brining a turkey…

    1. Remove the turkey and toss the brine 
    2. Blot the turkey dry with paper towels
    3. Optional – Combine butter and Grand Marnier and coat the outside of the turkey. If you’re not using Grand Marnier, just coat the outside of the turkey with butter so the dry rub sticks 
    4. Season the outside of the turkey skin with the rub (included). The turkey rub adds a ton of awesome flavor.

    What pellets to use with the Traeger turkey kit?

    Check out these Traeger smoked turkey pellets. 

    Already stocked up on pellets? 

    Check your pellet pantry for a fruity, light smoky flavor choice… try apple or cherry pellets for smoking Thanksgiving turkey.

    Keep them in the hopper to make smoked peaches for dessert.

    Or, go for something a bit heavier like hickory or mesquite pellets. In anycase, hardwood pellets & rubs are a pairing, so put some thought behind what you use. 

    See recipes to smoke for a tasty Traeger Thanksgiving.

    What are good things to pair with this brine & rub kit?

    1. For smoking your turkey, this rub kit especially pairs well with Traeger’s turkey brand pellets. You can only get these pellets the month leading up to Thanksgiving, so if you’re using their brine and rub, you should use the turkey pellets for actual smoking. 
    2. Orange brine infuses well with bourbon and Grand Marnier. These are optional to include when you brine and season, but they pair brilliantly and the rub adds an extra level of deliciousness. 
    3. When you’re thinking about seasoning this Thanksgiving, rubs and sauces pair just like wine and cheese. Keep that in mind when you choose your dry rub. To take it the extra mile, pellets rubs and sauces all pair together. Choose pairable things to have consistency with your meal flavor.

    Meat thermometer recommendations

    Every home chef needs a reliable meat thermometer to cook food perfectly. 

    On Sip Bite Go, you’ll often see me using:

    1. Meater thermometer – a fancy wireless thermometer that connects to a phone app – gifted to me from a Traeger partnership.
    2. ThermoPro digital thermometer – which has a wire that connects the thermometer to a display box outside the oven/grill. 

    It’s like being psychic! The great thing about either of the thermometers above is that I don’t have to take the food out of the oven to know the temperature. 

    How to use ‘em… What I do is stick the digital thermometer in steak, pork, chicken, whatever… Then put the food in the oven, on the smoker, or grill.

    While the meat cooks, it reads the temperature so I know exactly what temp meat is as it’s cooking. Without having to take it out and check. It’s really difficult to overcook food when you know exactly what temp it is inside!

    Hey, I’m Jenna Passaro.

    I develop easy recipes that can transform your kitchen into a restaurant – and you into a true home chef.

      

    Where to start?

    Learn the secrets to smoking tasty Traeger recipes and making pizza at home. And cook amazing tri tip steak dinners.

    Or, fall in love with something new to cook with your air fryer, pellet smoker, BBQ grill, sous vide cooker, and more…

    You’ll notice, I kind of geek out over new cooking trends and tools!

    My story. Growing up, I didn’t learn to cook.

    (I was actually banned from cooking for years)

    And then in my 20’s I didn’t have to cook because my job as an event planner involved a lot of travel and it was easier to eat out. At the time, I was 100% positive that restaurant food would always taste better than cooking at home, and there was nothing I could do about it.

    Until I fell in love with a chef. He would come over and cook me delicious meals right in my own kitchen. My mind was blown.

    Since then, I’ve been on a mission to figure out easy ways to make restaurant style food at home and share it here on Sip Bite Go.

    Love to eat out and travel? I can totally relate. See my guide on where to eat in Portland, OR.

    Never in a million years did I imagine I’d ditch the 9-5 lifestyle in my late 20’s, move across the country on a whim, start a new life, start a food blog, and write a book.

    But here I am!
