I have been wanting to try a beer brine for a long time and came across this one
http://jesspryles.com/recipe/beer-brined-bbq-wings/I didn't have peppercorns, (used a Tablespoon of ground pepper) didn't have all spice berries, (made my own all spice with equal parts of ground nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves), and used 1/2 teaspoon. I didn't have a Lemon so I used a Lime. Brined over night, (about 22 hours), in a gallon zip lock bag, turning the bag over several times. Rinsed them off, patted dry, and dusted them with Plowboys Yardbird.
Fired up a full chimney of Royal Oak Briquets, and poured them over some used Weber Briquets, Put the middle section of my WSM on the Performer without the water pan, and let it go with the lid off the whole time. The fire was really hot, maybe too hot! Flipped the wings several times during the cook to try and avoid burning them, while trying to take pictures.
The brine added extra moisture and gave them a nice flavor. Will do this one again.
