Holding Brined Chicken ???

[John Furdyn]

How long can you keep chicken (halfs),that's been brined before cooking it ?

In other words take it out of the brine and wrap and refrigerate can it stay in fridge like that for 24 hours or more ?

Any info appreciated.

Thanks

I've done thirty-six hours... on a rack with a loose towel draped over (after six hours of drying) and I was happy... just my experience.

Shouldn't be a problem like Marc says. It will actually dry out the skin and give you a nice and crisp skin. I wouldn't leave it much longer than that though.

Thanks guys

My plans have change and it looks like my chicken will have to wait until tomorrow.

Maybe they will grow a little.
