Going only on what I have read here, I gave it a shot today....and am VERY happy with the results. Made up a whiskey-based marinade with various spices and brushed it on. Then I covered with Montreal. Threw it in the fridge for 36 hours.

The bad news: A friend borrowed my MES a month ago, and when I went to get it back lat night.....I opened it to find out, he left uncleaned and under an awning that didn't quite keep the rain out. So the inside was covered in mold and mildew. Disgusting. He thinks he can clean it, I'm not so...

Tomorrow: Chicken (whole, no brine)
