sunni and I felt the thread fit in better in this forum. it was moved cause it just makes sense.. this thread was made before RIU even had a cafe forum.... not sure what the big deal is all about? it will bring more action to the cafe section.
 
it dies cause it went to the cafe forum???? well, if it dies, it cause the members are not posting in here anymore, not because it moved to the cafe forum. if I put this in support forum, y'all still would find it and post in it. ain't most of the people who post in here subscribed to the thread?
 
Ratio of ingredients and length of soak please! :D
If I recall correctly;
aprox 1.5+ cups brown sugar
aprox 2 cups kosher salt
1 onion quartered
few twigs fresh rosemary and thyme
5 bay leafs + some shredded bay leaf
Peel of 3 oranges, 1 halved orange(option to squeeze)
peel of 1 lemon, 1 halved lemon(option to squeeze)
1 granny smith apple(I would add more)
5 tablespoon black peppercorn
Balanced it out with a little all spice, cinnamon
I forgot apple cider so substituted with 1 bottle of this stuff

Brined for I think 18-24 hours:confused:, letting it come to room temperature the last few hours.
Will go longer next time
salt,sugar, and juice should be upped a little bit.
Oh I almost forgot I added some baking powder to help lower the acidity of the brine, maybe a tablespoon or two.
I read it helps the bird absorb flavor. *By lowering the acidity
:peace:
Edit; most of the ingredients except whole fruit was brought to a boil before going in brine
