I used a variation on one of the brines someone else had posted and smoked them for about 6 hours yesterday. Yumm!!
Here's what I used:
1.5 gallons water
1 cup Kosher Salt
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup soy sauce
and a few shakes of minced onion, since I didn't have any onion powder!
Soaked them for about 12 hours and smoked them with apple and a little hickory for about 6 hrs. until at 185.
I have to admit I've never brined a chicken before, so I can't say if this is better or worse than any other recipe, but it went over well!
Feel free to try it out.
