Hound's Citrus Brined Chicken
Prepare the brine: 1 gallon water 1 cup Kosher salt or 1/2 cup table salt juice of 3 oranges juice of three limes
juice of three lemons rinds from same 1 sliced white onion 1 head of garlic, crushed stems from a bunch of
cilantro, chopped serranos to taste, minimum of 4 rough ground cumin and coriander 2 Tbsp each 1/4 cup chili
powder or any ground chile you prefer (1/4 cup onion powder is optional) (1/4cup garlic powder is optional) Place the
bird(s) and plenty of brine solution in a ziploc bag(s) and leave refrigerated overnight prior to cooking. A cooler works fine
also. I use a 5 gal beverage cooler for all but the biggest turkeys. Frozen soda bottles or ice can be used to keep the cold.
{8 lbs of ice= 1 gallon of water} An hour before cooking take the bird out and thoroughly wash it down with cold water for
at least 30 seconds. You can place aromatics like garlic heads, apples, citrus in the cavity of the bird for the cooking. I like
also to place orange slices between skin and meat. Smoke rear end of chicken toward the fire for 45 minutes/lb @ 225°F
until the thigh is about 170°F. You can rotate as necessary to avoid charring. Cooking this way will result in inedible skin, but
juicy chicken. If you like the crispy skin then place the chicken near the firebox. This works for either chickens or turkeys. If
you eliminate the brine (salt and water) the rest of the recipe makes an excellent marinade for grilled chicken. (Recipe

WORKS! You won't believe it is chicken. Flakes apart like fish. You must try this and it works on turkey .)
