This kit is designed to infuse your poultry with sweet, salty, and citrusy notes, making every bite mouthwatering and tender.

Why Brine Your Turkey or Chicken?

Brining is a time-honored technique that locks in moisture and infuses meat with flavor. Whether you’re preparing a Thanksgiving turkey or a weeknight roast chicken, brining ensures your protein stays juicy and never dry.
“Brining adds both flavor and moisture to a protein. In its simplest form, brine is a salt and water solution. When you soak a protein in brine, salt will diffuse throughout the protein, adding flavor and making changes to the protein, causing it to hold more moisture.”

Benefits of Brining:

Juicier, more tender meat Enhanced flavor throughout Prevents dryness during roasting

Perfect for Turkey, Chicken, and More

  • Full Kit: Brines 12-18 lbs of meat (ideal for a whole turkey)
  • Half Kit: Brines 6-8 lbs of meat (perfect for a chicken or turkey breast)
  • Versatile: Works for turkey, chicken, pork, and even some vegetables and fish

How to Use the Real Salt Citrus Brine Kit

Wet Brining (for Maximum Juiciness)

1. Boil 3 quarts of water in a large pot. 2. Add the contents of the Brine Kit and simmer until dissolved. 3. Cool the brine completely (add 3 quarts of cold water to speed up cooling). 4. Submerge your meat in the cooled brine, ensuring it’s fully covered. 5. Refrigerate for 18-24 hours (for turkey) or 8-12 hours (for chicken). 6. Remove, rinse, and dry the meat before roasting.
“Brining will infuse protein with flavor and moisture but will not make it salty. The Real Salt Brine Kit contains the perfect solution of Real Salt, organic coconut sugar, citrus, and herbs. When a fresh turkey is brined according to the package directions, it will be subtly infused with flavor and moisture but not taste overly salty.”

Dry Brining Option

For a simpler approach or if fridge space is limited, you can also use the kit for dry brining: Use ¾ tablespoon of the brine mix per pound of meat.
  • Rub inside and under the skin, then refrigerate uncovered for 12-24 hours.

Tips for the Perfect Citrus Brined Turkey or Chicken

  • Get creative: Substitute cold apple cider for water for a fruitier flavor.
