One of those made to dispense water or gatorade at a soccer game or construction site. It’s great because you just pack some ice into the brine and you don’t have to waste fridge space.

I know for the Feast at Paideia that they assign a family in every grade to roast a turkey at home.

Contractor/trash bags are more than likely going to leave you needing a new fridge after you saturate the thing with raw turkey juice.

The one year we were responsible for procuring and brining the turkey, the only free range ones left at Whole Foods were monsters. We ended up with a bird on the order of 24 lbs. (not totally ridiculous since we had ~ 20 people to feed). We have a counter depth fridge, so it was a tight fit, but we got it in there. But even with the proper brining bag, it was still a sleepless night imagining a catastrophic trickle. But it held strong.
