Don's Jack Daniel's Poultry Brine image

My uncle Don made this for Christmas and it was so awesome I had to post it here. Don't be fooled by the amount of JD, it just adds a very subtle hint of flavor and does not overpower. He smoked it on the grill, but you can cook it in the oven too. You can try it with other whiskey's as well to add a touch of different flavor. This makes enough for about a 15 lb bird.
