Small molecules like water, salt, and sugar can pass through this membrane, but larger molecules like proteins cannot. Through a process of osmosis by diffusion, the cell moves water, salt and sugar in and out of the cells trying to get things back into balance with the surrounding liquid. Here's a crude illustration that I've drawn to show what I've described. I hope this gives you a better understanding of how brining works, and why it's a wonderful way to let nature help you cook a much better bird.
I'm always amazed at how much interest there is online in finding new and better ways to prepare and serve a better bird at this time of year. This sauce is a brainstorm that I had while contemplating how I might kick my typical smoked bird up a notch using classic flavors that would complement my brine. Whole berry cranberry sauce (jellied is fine) 1/2 cup Orange juice concentrate, thawed 1/4 cup Brown sugar 1/8 cup Honey 2 Tbsp Butter, unsalted 2 Tbsp Sherry vinegar (or white wine vinegar) 2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce 1 tsp Ground white pepper 1/2 tsp Chinese five spice (or allspice/pumpkin pie spice) 1/2 tsp Ground ancho chile Method Combine all of the ingredients in a medium sauce pan.
Patio Daddio BBQ - Musings of barbecue, cooking, and life -- served hot, fresh and saucy Turkey is most definitely not just for Thanksgiving! Ingredients 1 12-14 lb Turkey, thawed 1 batch Patio Daddio Big Bird Bath Add your favorite smoke wood chips (soaked) or chunks to the coals (I recommend cherry or apple). Remove the turkey from the grill/smoker onto a platter, tent it with foil and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.
Last month I asked for your support of my rib entry in the semi-finals of the Smithfield Hog Wild Throwdown . Well, I have some bad news and some good news, and I'm a bad-news-first kinda guy, My ribs didn't make the finals, but the good news is that my Steakhouse Chops with Apple-Shallot Compound Butter entry in the final "Grill Pork Like a Steak" category has made the semi-finals in the Pitmaster Pro division. If I could bother you again, your support is greatly appreciated.
