Title: Butt Brining
Post by: NePaSmoKer on May 15, 2012, 07:20:20 AM
Got this recipe from a forum member. Easy peasy butt brine

Here is the basic brine. Forgot  the white pepper/salt in the pic.

Brown sugar

Apple cider vinegar.

Added the pepper, salt, brown sugar and vinegar. Mixed up good. (spirits added later in bout 9 hours)

I'm going to inject some of the brine.

Submerge into the brine.

Cover/fridge. Will add the spirits later. Tomorrow rinse butt and rub down with dry rub before the smoker.

I knew you would like that brine. Although it does fall under the SUPER Secret Receipt category as that is a competition brine.

Looks to me like it's still a secret. There are no dam measurements. ;) ;D ???

Yes -- certainly a bit of the details are missing.  :)

What rub did you use? Jan's? 

Of course -- we still need to see the money pics of the butt after the smoke! 

Cheers!
