You should try brining your chicken!
I put this in the off-topic section because I did it on the gasser. I don’t have a rotisserie for the green egg yet so that was my only choice. If you haven’t brined a chicken before and cooked it on the rotisserie you don’t know what you’re missing. This bird was delicious and you could taste the brine right through to the bones!

That's like saying you should look east to see the sunrise. I always brine my chicken and always cook it on the BGEtisserie. There's no other way for me.Cincinnati, Ohio. Large BGE since 2011. Still learning.

You're making me rethink my approach to chicken.

I like to brine mine in beer. I do alot of cooking with beer.

I use 6 cups of water, 5 Tbs salt, 6 tbs of brown sugar and aromatics (lemon, rosemary, garlic, bay leaf, peppercorns, anything you wish). Submerged for at least 12 hours. I would not do it any other way nowIn the bush just East of Cambridge,Ontario
