Brining Question

[hbongaiii]

I read the section on brining and read a bunch of post about it. The one question that no one seemed to address was, "Does the brining meat need to be refrigerated??"

You need to keep the meat below 40 when doing it. You can brine in a container but just put ice in it too. Or just put it in the fridge.

38° is the optimum brinin temp, any higher an ya risk spoilage, much lower an the brinin process slows way down.
