Poultry Brine Ingredients

1 gallon Water	1 teaspoon Garlic minced
3/4 cup Salt Use non iodized salt (kosher)	1 tablespoon Cumin
1/2 cup Sugar	1 tablespoon Black pepper fresh cracked

Instructions for Poultry Brine

For each gallon of water (enough to cover bird) use 3/4 cup kosher salt, 1/4 to 1/2 cup sugar, some garlic, cumin, pepper, maybe some hot sauce, or any other flavors you like. Let the whole chicken soak for about 8 hours.

In your competition schedule, be sure to include enough time for brining and smoking. Wash the chicken off in cold water for about 30 seconds each.

My Notes: All measurements are approximate. add whatever seasonings float your boat.
