Yea I've read that on menus for chicken. Might need to try, I usually just throw breast in some salt water. The turkey one I use I saw on youtube.

At thanksgiving last year I was disappointed to see this overdone oven bird. So dry... lol. Couple days later I bought my own to have for personal use

Good thing about leftover dry turkey is you can always turn it into delicious turkey salad sandwich.

I tried a dry salt brine a steak the other day for the first time, came out great. Have yet to try for chicken yet. Only downside for the steak is that it completely changed the coloring. Turns the steak gray .

It's the deal for chicken. Haven't tried any of the dry aging or dry brine yet. I guess maybe you'd have to get a good sear on it to try and change the color. My boy thinks he's bobby flay so he gets all his steaks from the butcher and does them sous vide.

I have a sous vide - here's my thoughts:
1) Although it can cook steak to the desired done-ness, the meat you pull out of the bag is grey and slimy. It's fine inside, and looks OK after you sear it, but I find cooking with grey meat very unappetizing.
2) It's more clutter to store, clean, deal with in the kitchen.
3) Works ok for Chicken, and to thaw food.

My steak tactics - super simple.
1) Get the meat out of the refrigerator 2-hours before you grill it. Let it get up to room temperature. If you keep it covered, it turns a healthy looking red.
2) Liberal kosher salt on the outside. No brine, marinade, etc.
3) Get coals on the grill glowing red hot. Lump charcoal only. Avoid briquettes, and (god forbid) no gas! Maybe toss some wood chips on for extra flava.
4) Set the grate as close to the coals as possible - 1" or 2" if you can do it.
5) Sear hot and fast! Enough for the Mailliard reaction, and that's all. I like just a tiny layer of purple in the very center.
