Looks great, but you know I'm not a good cook. So, what's a "t" and did you bake it? If so, what temperature and for how long? I ask because it really looks good and wonder if it would be good on beef.

t = teaspoon

I slow cooked it for about 3 1/2 hours and it was perfect!

I wouldn't try it one beef, unless you leave out the brown sugar.

That sounds great. The pork brine I use also has brown sugar. That really works with pork.

I just looked at a recipe for chicken that calls for brining and then frying. Want to try it soon!

Marian L Aug 20, 2012, 6:10pm UTC

Yes, brine your chicken. Once I started doing that, it was moist and tasty. Sometimes white meat can get dry. Also, you can't over salt it. After brining, you rinse and pat dry. The meat takes in the salt it needs, no more.
That's the method I used to make the 25 lbs. of chicken for our conference. Even after reheating, all the chicken including the white meat was still tender and juicy.

I just got a whole chicken. Can I brine the whole thing like I do turkey?

Marian L Aug 21, 2012, 5:35pm UTC

Sure. I brine whole chicken and chicken parts. For the whole one, I would add about a 1/2 cup salt to water that covers the chicken. Brine for about an hour and be sure to rinse before cooking. Just eyeball the salt. If you add too much, you just waste salt. It will not harm the chicken.

I reduced the amount of salt called for.

Good for you! People eat to darn much of that stuff and it is not a good thing.

Sounds fabulous! I had a frozen chicken tikka masala dinner. It was a bit too spicy and lacked vegetables, and I was too lazy to even peel a carrot. It would have been more filling and tasty with some veggies already in it.
