You might want to upload that video again... When I played it, it showed that it was 2:18 long but when it got that far, it went for another 1:30 or so with the screen blacked out by the REPLAY request. In otherwords, the timing is off but the whole thing played through.
I watched it both yesterday and today without a hitch, using Firefox. Might want to try it again.

Enjoyed the video clip. Too bad I'm invited out for thanksgiving meal this year. Oh well, turkey is great any weekend.
Consider doing MORE educational video clips for both new beginners and seasoned vets. Most CS customers and forum members would pop out $20.00 or so for a series on a DVD. It looks like you're already set up @ headquarters with an adequate camera/sound set up. Get the recipies out & BRING IT ON!

I'm glad to see you are enjoying our video! We are planning on doing a lot more in the future. If anyone has any ideas of what you would like to see, please let me know.
Qnorth, did you ever get the video to work on your computer?

Yeah, get Smokin' to do his 101's on video.
Also, you might add a URL to the video and point them to the forum or a link to get the recipe or ask questions
Good video! I think I'd bring everything to a boil first to insure saturation, no? How to get away with storing a 5 gallon bucket in the ref'r without the wife throwing a fit is something I'm working on. I think I'll be relegated to the ice chest this year.
Love to see anything 101 from Smokin'

Yes I did.... I saw that there was a link later in the threads and tried that. And the timing was correct. Just tried the original link and now the timing is also correct. Just wondering if someone re-loaded it or what went wrong, but YouTube was showing me that it was only 2:18 in length.
All is fine now.
LCNSac. That's where a second refrigerator in the garage comes in real handy. Apartment dwellers may be out of luck.
If you don't have a second refrig. in the garage, you can use a cooler and just keep the turkey covered in ice. To avoid diluting the brine, put the turkey and brine in a bag and seal it before putting it in the cooler.
I just purchased two perfect buckets that will fit in my cooler from a local donut shop. The 5 gallon bucket in the video would not fit--these are wider but not as tall. $1.50 each.
If you need a "food safe container" find a pickle bucket.
If you can't find that, then you have an excuse to go to a local restaurant supply store.
I found a PERFECT size that holds one turkey and minimizes air space (and I use less brine).
Of course, when I was there, I bought other stuff also
