Rainy Day Brined Spatchcock

Brined the chicken last night in a gallon of water 3/4 cup salt, 2/3 cup sugar, 3/4 cup soy and 1/4 cup olive oil. John Henry's Texas Chicken Tickler for rub, Rockwood with Pecan and Cherry. Cooked at 400 raised direct. Juicy and very flavorful, this may be the best one so far.

    Looks good. I use salt and sugar in my brine. I get the soy sauce, what does the olive oil do for the flavor? Moisture?

    I have no idea just saw it on a website and decided to try it. I couldn't taste the soy but the white meat sure had good flavor.

    Brining really takes poultry to the next level. Good job brother. The food looks excellent! =D>

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.
