Brined Chicken +pron

G'day Q'ers

I've had this one in the can since last week, but too busy to post. Thanks to Phubar for his post on brined chicken. Although I have done it before, I only did whole chickens. This time I did 4 Chickens and 5kg of Maryland cuts like Phubar.

Here we go: Here's the washed chicken:

Some ingredients for the brine, (apart from the regular stuff) I used sage, Vietnamese Mint, Cracked Allspice Berries..

In the pot, I added fennel, onion, garlic and a few other things.

Chicken in the brine, and then into my shed fridge I have exactly for the purpose...

The chicken was brined overnight and packed in Ziplock bags the next day for freezing. I kept out a few legs for dinner that night, but made my own rub for it.

Here t is sprinkled on the legs...

Now the cooking and the result!

Anyway, it tasted FANTASTIC!

Thanks for looking!

Making me hungry!!

Great Photos . I am more interested in the method

The photos are great and the brine looks good. However looking at the great looking meal you created without specifics ie times and temperatures and brine contents and exact measurements makes it less.

Photos are fantastic!

Yes, you're probably right. I'm still a but new to doing this sort of stuff though. It's only been about 6 months. As a result, I'm not too chatty about how I've arrived at the result. I don't want to be a bore. IF you do want all the details, I'm happy to PM them to you...

Cheers!

Wow - looks awesome! Nice ingredients for the brine, bet the chicken rocked. Did you do the potatoes on the grill or fry them?
