As usual, another successful recipe from Sunny Anderson... This recipe is excellent alternative to marinade/brines for poultry. Balanced salt/sweet with "tang" from cider. Will definitely repeat this recipe for fried chicken.

I made this recipe about 2 years ago and cant bring myself to try any other recipes! The brine made the meat so juicy and perfect and it is a fan favorite anywhere I bring it! Thanks Sunny

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE learn from MY mistake and do not leave the chicken in the brine for too long. I left my chicken in the brine for wayyyyy longer than an hour (like 5 hrs and my chicken was VERY salty. I had no idea this would ruin the recipe. If I had followed the directions and taken heed to these reviews, I could have avoided this error. So, set that kitchen timer for an hour, watch an episode of AFV, or count to 3600 by "1 Mississippi's"....just DON"T LEAVE THAT CHICKEN IN THE BRINE TOO LONG!!

This is the best fried chicken EVER! My first time brining and I love it. Thought it was going to be salty, so I cut back on the salt to 1/3 cup. This is the only way I will eat it from now on. Instead of the cayenne pepper, I used garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper. I also fried it in peanut oil instead of the shortening. Still delicious.
