Brine, Baby, Brinenew

With brining, salt water enters the meat's cells while water flows out. As the salt flows in, it begins to break down some of the cell proteins, making it possible for more water to flow into the meat. This process results in more flavor and less moisture loss during cooking, yielding meat that is deeply seasoned and extra juicy.
