I brined 2 chickens Friday and air dried them all day Saturday, rubbed one with Texas Chicken Tickler and the other with Raging river, Asparagus and ABT's for sides Pecan and cherry for smoke. Chickens were juicy, skin was crispy and everyone loved the two different rubs.

    Since I had 2 chickens I went with 2 gallons water 2 cups kosher salt 1 cup sugar, 1 cup of soy and 5 smashed garlic cloves. Brined in fridge overnight for about 12 hours then air dried in fridge all day Saturday put them on around 7:30 last night. Chicken took around an hour pulled when breast was 155.
