Brining Meat Outside of the Fridge

Q: Can you brine the meat without putting it in the refrgerator?

A: There are no rules to where it has to be placed.. the only rule is that you must keep the water between 33 and 39 degrees to prevent the growth of bacteria.

(most refrigerators maintain about 37 degrees)

If you keep plenty of ice in the brine it should be fine.. it will dilute the brine a little over time but is still a workable solution if you cannot place the meat in the fridge.
