Brining
Chez Panisse brine
Weber How_to
Bruce Aidells use 2/9 cup "kosher salt" per cup of liquid. = 1.11 oz per cup
America's Test Kitchen uses 1 cup kosher salt in 2 quarts of liquid.
America's test kitchen uses 1 cup table salt in 4 quarts of water
Weber says 5/8 oz per cup of liquid.
I compromised on 1.0 ounces per cup. 4 hrs brine.
1.0 ounces avoids the big density problems between types of salt (factor of two)
1 oz of Morton Kosher Salt = 2 Tbs.
Cook's Illustrated High Temp Brine
High-Temp Brine
1 quart cool water
1/4 cup Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt = 5/4 ounces
2 tablespoons sugar
Mix in a non-reactive container until dissolved. Substitute 3 TBSP Morton Kosher Salt or 2 TBSP table salt for Diamond Crystal.
Make 1 quart of brine for each pound of meat, not to exceed 8 quarts (2 gallons). Soak meat for 1 hour per pound, but not less than 30 minutes or longer than 8 hours. If brining multiple pieces, base the brining time on the weight of an individual piece.
