Bert 1,087 Posted January 20, 2019 Pork and poultry I like a brine and light rub. Never brine beef unless making corned beef or pastrami imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted January 20, 2019 Cook to the right temp and you shodn't have to brine. One thing I've learned is to barely use any smoke on poultry. That sh!t soaks up smoke like a sponge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
