    Big Cat,
    Have you tried Brant's Brine recipe?? It is part of his Beer-butt recipe, but the brine is worth trying if you haven't used it yet. Words can't explain how the subtle flavor of the cinnamon, and other spices, create an incredible flavor throughout the meat. If you end up with leftovers it also makes a kiler chicken salad.

    Nature Boy,[p]If I use the brine, but instead of the beer-butt method I use the V-rack and a drip pan, waht would you do as far as temp and time.

    Big Cat,
    Some of the experts hopefully can chime in, but I would use 300 dome. Higher if you like crispy skin. Cook til thickest part of the breast is 160-165. Maybe about 20 minutes/pound.[p]I love that brine! I even used it once on a batch of TT's Okinawan Wings and they were awesome.[p]Have fun
