Lone Star Holiday Beer Brine

By Jess Pryles, Hardcore Carnivore®

 

(Suitable for a 10-12lb turkey, scale up as needed)

– 64 oz Lone Star Beer

– 192 oz water (1.5 gallons)

– 2.5 cups pickling salt

– 2 cups brown sugar

– 6-8 allspice or juniper berries

– 2 T whole peppercorns

– 3 bay leaves (dried or fresh)

– 3 cloves garlic, peeled

Place water in a pan over medium low heat and add salt and sugar. Whisk/stir until the crystals are dissolved, then allow the mixture to cool. Add remaining ingredients. Submerge turkey and brine for 12-16 hours. Rinse before cooking.

“This brine is perfect for any poultry you may be making during the holiday season. The trick is to use pickling salt, which dissolves easily into the liquid,” said Pryles.  For book contest details visit @lonestarbeer and @hardcorecarnivore on Instagram.
