The Brine, Recipe at the end of post

10 thighs in the brine into the refrigerator overnight

Made a flour and corn starch mix 1 C of each and some Montreal Chicken Seasoning

Cooked for 1-hr. @ 350*

Served with green beans and boiled red potatoes, the chicken was very tasty and I'll do them again.
