How long do you think the brine will keep in the fridge?  Any other smoking the brine would be good for?  I made more than needed, so just put the extra in a sealed container in the fridge.

By the way Dave, I made some; it's great.

Thanks,
Chuck

Chuck, put it in a gallon bag and lay it flat in the freezer or maybe a soda bottle?

I wouldn't even freeze it if you have space. I have started keeping a gallon of brine in the meat fridge in case I need to soak a chicken with little prep.

I use empty gallon water jugs to store brine.  When I make a gallon, I always put it in a water jug in the fridge until it's good and cold (even though I chill it with ice when I make it).  It'll keep for a long time - really nothing to go "bad" in a brine.
