I have used a similar Brine to this for years. This brine is great but I replace the water with apple juice. also you want to use a little more sugar, salt and garlic. Go heavy on the molasses. I also dice up an onion and throw in the marinade, when using salt use coarse salt as it will give better flavor.
I inject the turkey with half Lawry's herb and garlic marinade and half Carol butter. also I sprinkle kicked up mustard on the outside and spray it with olive oil just before I put it in my smoker. stop the cavity with apples and celery to keep the meat moist.

The Brine turned out ok. I put my twist on it and added another cup of sugar and salt
