Knows what a fatty is.
I like to use a brine for most of my poultry, and had a question as I made some brine for some turkey legs I'm going to put on the smoker tomorrow.
Has anyone ever made a big batch of brine concentrate (I usually use a quart of water to boil, and then mix in everything else)? To get it down to temp quickly I'll usually supplement with ice and cold water to get back up to the full gallon.
Could I make a large stock pot of super concentrated brine (1:4) and store it for later by the quart and then just add water later to make up the gallon? Would it need to be pressure canned, or does the salinity of the water make it safe to keep (in fridge or pantry).
Anybody have any ideas?
