I forget where I found this recipe.. but it works good IMO In a 5 gal food grade bucket the 2 gallons will just barely cover a 12-14 lb bird.

2 Gallons of Water
1 Cup Kosher Salt
1 Cup Cajun Seasoning
1 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar
1/2 Cup Red Pepper Flakes (I use hot sauce and more like 1/4 cup)
5 Twigs of Rosemary
1 Cup of Molasses

I brine my birds for about 12 hrs - dont forget the ice to keep the water cold if you cant fit the brine bucket into ur Ice box.
