The Bird is in the Brine

This morning I placed our bird, along with two extra drumsticks into a very large pot, and filled it with water, 1 cup of salt, 1 cup of apple cider vinegar, 1 cup of whiskey, 1 bunch of radishes, 1 yellow onion, 1 white onion, 3 sliced carrots and 3 chopped celery stalks. The pot is now covered in the garage and packed in ice. Here’s a picture of the whole thing before I took it out back to sit til tomorrow morning.
