How to use your brine

We strongly recommend brining your poultry in a food safe container for a minimum of 1 hour per pound though doing it overnight is the most convenient. Make sure to completely rinse your poultry after brining and pat completely dry before adding your favorite seasoning.

Mixing Instructions:

  • Chicken: Mix 1 cup of brine with 1/2 gallon of water, chicken stock, chicken broth or your choice of liquid. 
  • Turkey: Mix entire contents of the package with 1 gallon of water or enough to completely submerge your turkey. 
  • Optional - You can warm the mixture in a saucepan to help dissolve the contents. Make sure you chill the mixture completely before submerging poultry.


Bent Barrel Bird Brine is crafted to boost the tenderness and flavor of any poultry. Infused with the aromatics of garlic, allspice and clove, and the delicate hints of citrus and sage, your bird will be imbued with unforgettable flavor. Each bird will be bathed in moisture and flavor, guaranteeing your family will be impressed every time.

What it does

Moisture

Keeps it juicy

Salt helps the meat hold onto water, so more of it stays in the bird instead of cooking out. That is your insurance against dry breast meat.

Tenderness

Keeps it tender

Salt relaxes the muscle proteins, so the meat doesn't tighten up and turn tough as it cooks.

Flavor

Seasons it all the way through

Garlic, citrus, sage, rosemary, thyme and warm spice travel in with the water, so the flavor reaches past the surface and into every bite.

Before you add it to the cart

a few things people ask us

Will it make my turkey salty? No. Use the recommended ratio and brine time, and it builds moisture and savory flavor without turning the bird into a salt lick.

Is it only for turkey? No. Use it for chicken, duck, Cornish hens, turkey legs, wings, or any poultry you want juicier before cooking.

How do I use it? Mix it with water, soak the bird for at least 1 hour per pound (overnight is easiest), then rinse, pat dry and cook. For chicken, mix 1 cup of brine with 1/2 gallon of liquid. For turkey, use the whole package with 1 gallon.

Allergen heads-up. It contains mustard (ground mustard). If that is an allergy in your house, skip this one.

What did we leave out? On purpose, a few things you'll find in a lot of brines:

Not in the bottle

  • MSG or fillers
  • Gluten or nuts

Not on the label

  • Artificial sweeteners
  • Dairy, soy or eggs

All but 1 of the seasons were super good. The other is probably good, but it destroyed my tongue 😂

Best ever bird.

Used Bent Barrel Bird Brine on this years bird. Overnight brining and then on the Treager until 165. About 4 hours. Not only the best turkey I’ve ever made but the best turkey I’ve ever had.
