Will the Briner JR, hold either one Butt, Turkey Breast, or Ham?

[Papa Rick]

Saw where I get a four pack of these at a good price (I believe ?)

Wanting to make sure they will hold what I am needing to bring when I get ready to do the Turkey Day stuff?

Advice and suggestions greatly appreciated.

One butt fits fine.  Hams should too.  I've never tried a turkey in the Briner Jr.

You should be good on anything up to about 10 lbs, and the size of a 10 lb pork butt.  You will not fit a larger turkey in the Jr.  I brine my turkeys in a cooler, surrounded by ice bags.  Same for large briskets.  My Jr. is used for pork loins, butts, tenderloins, ribs, beef/deer jerky, chickens (whole & parts), etc...  Briskets and whole turkeys get a bath in the cooler.  The full-size Briner will accept a whole turkey, but I don't have the real estate in the fridge for it. 

I'd like to have another Jr., but not sure I'd ever need 4 of them.  Great price, though!

Thanks Travis and Tony, I will be ordering the 4 pack special on Friday. Hopefully they will be having some type of Black Friday Special??

Was not sure was going to do this, but decided after my brining bag sprung a leak today!  Had it in a pan so no mess, but still would be better in the Briner Junior.

Nothing worse than a blowout on a bag during a brine!    Been there, done that!  Like I said, that's a great price for 4!  Keep a couple, and give a couple to friends/family that cook!  Two Christmas presents out of the way!

Thanks Tony.

Got the 4 Briner Buckets yesterday and put them to good use today.  I got 4 Butts yesterday on my home from Vacation and mixed up the Brine solution and they are AWESOME!!  I was able to use them on all four butts,  7.12, 7.15, 6.38, and 7.88 pounds.
