You can remove some of the salt from a turkey by soaking it in water over night in the refrigerator. Cut up two potatoes and add them to the water with the turkey for soaking. The potatoes will absorb much of the salt. You can cook those potatoes to eat, throw them out or give them to your pet.

If I didn't brine it before I froze it, I like to defrost the turkey breast by soaking it overnight in a solution of salted water. (You definitely should not leave it on the counter, brine in the refrigerator for food safety.) The salt penetrates the turkey meat and not only flavors it, it tenderizes it, and it helps it retain moisture. So that's how I'd recommend defrosting the frozen breast.

Can you brine a store bought smoked turkey?

There's a couple of factors in this answer. Was the turkey ever frozen? if so, it should be cooked within two to three days of thawing, regardless. If the turkey is "fresh" (not frozen) you can get away with an extra day. If in doubt, add more salt, and be sure to change the water daily. And did I say more salt? Add more. Salt acts as a preservative, and it's pretty much impossible to over-salt a turkey.
