Sangria with maraschino?

Tonights dinner was simple, quick and good. Sloppy joe's and salad. Sombrero for dessert.

I have to admit there were some maraschino cherries involved.

You ate a hat for dessert????

Please return this thread to its home. cn

I don't get why it was moved...

sunni and I felt the thread fit in better in this forum. it was moved cause it just makes sense.. this thread was made before RIU even had a cafe forum.... not sure what the big deal is all about? it will bring more action to the cafe section.

I doubt it. This thread will probably just die.

it dies cause it went to the cafe forum???? well, if it dies, it cause the members are not posting in here anymore, not because it moved to the cafe forum. if I put this in support forum, y'all still would find it and post in it. ain't most of the people who post in here subscribed to the thread?

Ratio of ingredients and length of soak please!

If I recall correctly;
aprox 1.5+ cups brown sugar
aprox 2 cups kosher salt
1 onion quartered
few twigs fresh rosemary and thyme
5 bay leafs + some shredded bay leaf
Peel of 3 oranges, 1 halved orange(option to squeeze)
peel of 1 lemon, 1 halved lemon(option to squeeze)
1 granny smith apple(I would add more)
5 tablespoon black peppercorn
Balanced it out with a little all spice, cinnamon
I forgot apple cider so substituted with 1 bottle of this stuff
Brined for I think 18-24 hours, letting it come to room temperature the last few hours.
Will go longer next time
salt,sugar, and juice should be upped a little bit.
Oh I almost forgot I added some baking powder to help lower the acidity of the brine, maybe a tablespoon or two.
I read it helps the bird absorb flavor. *By lowering the acidity

Edit; most of the ingredients except whole fruit was brought to a boil before going in brine

I post here because it was part of toke & talk and that's what I frequent these days.

Would like to hear some other opinions.

I'm convinced that moving it here brought another person into my sourdough thread.

Wait, have I missed this one?
I happen to have a Sourdough in excess of 100 years old - from a super old roadhouse on the AK highway in the 80's.
Seriously? Sourdough?
