Another solution for grinding peppercorns. I use a coffee grinder, it’s great for getting a coarse or fine grind that is pretty consistant. Be sure not to have any coffee remnants in there before grinding. Hope the tip helps some of you.

Michelle, you have to let me know how it turned out! Nina, that is not a stupid question at all, it's something I've wondered myself. The purpose of the brine is to enhance the flavor of the chicken and to increase the plump juiciness. If you want a technical understanding of how it works, here's a post written by an engineer about it.

I have never thought of brine-ing a chicken first? So to sound so stupid, but does it enhance tha flavor or what is the purpose…..

If it is to make my bird look as utterly irresistible like yours then I am all for it!!!

There is just my hubby and my little boy this Thanksgiving, so this is a perfect solution for a family of three. We will be using this recipe and I am sure loving it. Thanks!

ovely. I had cornish hen last year. Pretty easy compared to the dreaded turkey. This year I’m trying my hand at some duck. Eek. We’ll see how that goes.
