Is it safe to recycle brine?

[swimcatsmom]

<p>I would have though you shouldn’t reuse it. That is just a gut reaction rather than any expert knowledge. It sounds really gross. I have never reused any sort of marinade or brine that has had raw meat in it.</p>

<p>Talking of gut reactions - please consider the one you and your guests might have if you do this.</p>

<p>edit - I googled it and the answer is you should not reuse it.</p>

<p>

Brine Should Not Be Reused</p>

<p>Discard the brine solution after use. The brine will contain proteins, blood, and other stuff from the meat that soaked in it. From a food safety standpoint, it is not advisable to reuse brine, even if it is boiled first.

<p>really - ugh!</p>
