Why? Because I seen pops do it and looks great

I am using my Briner Jr for the first time.



Mixed up a batch of pops low salt brine.



Bird in.



Plate in and top on.





Gonna cure til Thursday I think.
 
I've done a turkey and I believe a chicken or two in Pops brine. Yes, the dark meat will have a "hammy" texture. It still tastes like chicken, it's just different. I happen to really like it. The white meat gets less "hammy", really just stays incredibly moist with a slightly firmer texture. Sort of like deli chicken.
 
That looks Awesome, Adam!!

I think it tastes more Hammy when you get a good amount of Smoke on it.
