Peggi I did the stress test thing. There are two types. One is a tread mill. The other is a nuclear dye kind of thing. Don't be worried about the test it won't hurt. I wish you a good outcome.

I bought a 6# whole young chicken to smoke and put it into a brine to soak for two days.

2 gallons water
1 1/2 cups kosher salt
1 3/4 cups brown sugar
2 tea spoons minced garlic.
1 teaspoon garlic powder.
1 teaspoon ground black pepper.
1/2cup Worcestershire


This is good if you don't have a smoker and just want to roast it. It will produce a moister chicken.

Expand the brine and use it for a turkey. yum enjoy.

Wish you all a good day. I think maybe I will go to my shop and build a masterful bird house. I did one last week but it did not satisfy me it is only three rooms. I gave it to my sister . A few years ago I built two 21 room models and covered them and the roofs out of minature cedar shingles one is in my yard the other I gave to a woman that worked for me.
