It will be either salty or dry, there is no other way it can be. Ive been curing meat since 1969. If you put salt on a piece of meat and put it in a plastic container you will see liquid build up around the meat. Thats moisture pulled out of the meat, if you leave the meat for a longer period some of the liquid will be re-absorbed pulling the salt back in with it.

Yes, there is. It's called seasoned.

To all that have doubts: You can try this yourself with a chicken or duck. That way you don't have to worry about ruining your Holiday feast.
Be aware that once you try it, you will never do it any other way. It makes that much of a difference.
