• sugar or brown sugar or molasses or honey or karo syrup or pancake syrup or artificial sweetener, your choice please add ice cubes if using for more than a few minutes out of the refrigerator

Recipe

• 1 remove chicken from package (or if living in a country where chicken is really fresh, remove feathers, entrails (do not crush any bits) head, feet and wingtips and tail).
• 2 in a large bowl or clean sink put the chicken or cut up pieces of meat then pour on cold water until covered then add 1/2 cup of table salt or use less and 1/2 cup of apple cider vinegar.
• 3 move the chicken around gently in this mixture for 10 to 15 minutes. less time is ok if you see that the skin hangs loose on the meat.
• 4 you can add sugar or brown sugar, molasses, honey, karo syrup, pancake syrup or artificial sweetner to the soak, but that and the salt are a matter of taste.
• 5 rinse gently with more clean cold water.
• 6 now you are ready to cook stovetop, oven, crock pot, campfire or whatever.
• 7 even an old elderly bird will usually be tenderized.
• 8 my grandma also used this on game to make it tender and moist.
• 9 remember to use a sink cleanser that contains bleach on the sink, because chicken is a funny meat. you need to be careful with utensils after they were touched by any raw meat.
• 10 i mention the clean up, because when i was a new cook i did not know.
