Apple Brine image

Brining is a great way to make a lean cut of pork juicier. The sugar in the brine caramelizes on the surface of the pork when grilled. Yummy! Great grilled as is, or use with recipe #318386. Cooking time is marinating time. From Dinosaur Bar B Q.

I'm not a big fan of apple brine, but this recipe was surprisingly good. The chicken came out moist and flavorful.

This brine is not worth the effort. It didn't add any flavor to the meat.

This brine is a bit too sweet for my taste. I prefer a more savory brine.
