Title: re-use brine
Post by: slc smoke on January 11, 2012, 08:35:48 AM
just pulled my turkey out of the brine after 24hrs and was wondering if i should send the blister down to the store for a dozen c game hens to dunk in the same brine.  is that cool or am i asking for trouble?

You dont want to re-use your brine.

After the osmosis from brining the turkey has depleted most of the salt and spices in the brine.

Make a new one every time, its cheep insurance.

Ditto what OU812 said.  Don't reuse the brine.
