Hawaiian-Style Brine

Here is a basic brine recipe and you can adjust the amount depending on the size of meat(s) Not the cheapest brine recipe but it is good.Found this recipe on the net, the credit goes to Derrick Riches, it was just for turkey but I have used it on a chicken too and it was very good! I am almost sure this is also good with a pork roast but I have not tried it yet.
