Typically a chicken is 2-4 hours.. Too long can make it salty/dry. When I brine, I rinse really well with cool water, give it a nice olive oil rub down, sprinkle it with my poultry rub. Adding a lemon with slits in it to the cavity is supposed to help tenderize it a bit, I use lemon, lime, and traditional aromatics and herbs.Kiki - you sure do those workouts awfully quick. What is your secret?
The alphabet is way overused. We need to just stick with the whole words, spelled correctly. With proper enunciation.
Question: How long should a brined chicken soak? Will going longer hurt or cause issues?
I started brining Tuesday. Worked too late to care Wednesday and had to do the shopping Thursday. Trying to decide if I need to rinse or just cook. Will be on the rotisserie. These are barred rock at 16 weeks.
