Yikes! I didn’t read the recipe very carefully and boiled the chicken with the brine! It was only 10 mins, but he’s pretty hot. I took him out and continued to simmer the brine. Can I continue and use my chicken???

I made this today but instead of roasting I used a crockpot & it was the best chicken EVER! Thanks for the recipe!

Oh, and I just used water in my brine and drank the beer ;). Still, hubby said it was my best chicken yet and I have made many, many chickens.

I brine my chickens and turkeys as I defrost them. That’s how my grandmother would defrost hers, if they were frozen. She didn’t use frozen meat that often, most of what she cooked was fresh.

I have never brined a chicken. I’ll have to try it!
Thanks for linking up at Wildcrafting Wednesdays!

In reply to Chris B. Just thought I'd let you know that it came out great. I've done brining before but only on a turkey and only w/salt water. So, the next chicken is getting a good hard cider for sure!

I’m not that good of a planner. I’m thinking next time I hit the market im going to buy a couple birds, brine them all in a big batch then freeze them. That was I either can just defrost and roast or throw a frozen bird into the crockpot.

In reply to Oh Lardy. Actually the lambic is the closest I get to beer since I really don't like the taste and I try to stay gluten-free anyway. Thanks for the heads-up though in case I pass your link along. I DO think it would be really good with a nice hard cider too. Hmmmm ... maybe next time.
