Working on some simple quick Chicken Brines to add to my repertoire ...
Simple Brine:
•½ gallon water
•½ cup of sugar
•¼ cup of Kosher Salt
Added 5 FL oz of Yamasa Teriyaki to 7 Chicken Thighs and brined for 3 hours
Added 1 cup of Mr Yoshida’s Marinade & Cooking Sauce and 3 tsp Garlic Juice [1 tsp = ½ clove garlic] to half a Chicken and brined for 2½ hours
Money $shot 1 … The Chicken was scrumptious, very moist, and tender. However, the Teriyaki flavor was more modest than expected. Next time I’ll use the entire 10 Fl oz of the Yamasa Teriyaki.
Money $shot 2 … The Mr Yoshida's Sweet & Savory Sauce did provided a great starting point for this brine and the liquid garlic complimented the Hickory smoke and Yardbird Rub seasonings but maybe 2 cups of Yoshida and a bit more liquid garlic.
