Hi Brenda,

It depends on the amount of Apple cider vinegar you used, but I would start over if it's a good amount. (Though, pickled turkey might be one of the best things ever, who knows.) Kidding aside, if you have enough apple cider, I would make a new brine for peace of mind.

Best of luck, and happy holiday!

3 cups of vinegar to 2 gallons of water + 2 cups of brown sugar, orange rinds, thyme
