Savory Citrus Brine
A blend of salt, herbs, and spices, with a twist of citrus. Perfect for wet and dry brining any time of the year.
2022 Packaging Update: Please note that our Savory Citrus Brine is no longer in a 16oz plastic container but is now sold in an 8oz glass jar!
1 jar is enough for the majority of your dry brining, up to a 14lb bird.
For wet brining, 1 jar is sufficient for a whole chicken, 1-2 turkey breasts, or a whole turkey up to 8lbs.
For wet brining a whole turkey 9-14 bs, you will need 2 jars of brine.

DRY BRINE
Our Savory Citrus Brine can be used to dry brine turkey, chicken, beef, lamb, and pork. Use 1-2 tablespoons of brine per pound of meat and place in the refrigerator loosely covered for 8-24 hours, depending on size and cut. Bring meat to room temperature before cooking. Brush off any excess brine and cook according to your favorite recipe.
WET BRINE*
1-2 TURKEY BREASTS OR WHOLE TURKEY (UP TO 8LBS)
Set aside 1/4 cup brine, then stir remainder of jar into 1 gallon of water. Fully submerge and brine turkey for 12-18 hours. Remove from wet brine and rub remaining brine on to skin prior to cooking.
WHOLE TURKEY (9 TO 14 LBS)
Note: You will need 2 jars of Savory Citrus Brine
Set aside 1/2 cup brine, then stir remainder of 1 jar, plus 1 additional jar, into 2 gallons of water. Fully submerge and brine turkey for 12-18 hours. Remove from wet brine and rub remaining brine onto skin prior to cooking.
WHOLE CHICKEN
Stir 1 jar of brine into 2 quarts water (~2 liters). Fully submerge and brine chicken for 8-12 hours.
1-4 CHICKEN THIGHS, CHICKEN BREAST & PORK CHOPS
Stir 1/2 cup brine into 4 cups water. Fully submerge and brine meat for 4-8 hours. Remove poultry or pork from brine and pat dry. Do not rinse. Bring to room temperature and cook according to your favorite recipe.
*For best wet brine results, allow meat to dry overnight before rubbing and cooking. For both wet and dry brine applications, cooking longer at a lower temperature will allow the sugars to caramelize without burning, so you can achieve a perfect golden brown.
