Porch & Pit Sweet Teazus Pork & Poultry Brine Concentrate - Sweet Tea & Rosemary, 32 oz FAQs
What is Sweet Teazus Pork & Poultry Brine?
A ready-to-use liquid brine concentrate made with real Southern sweet tea and rosemary by Porch & Pit, a family-owned company in Columbia, South Carolina.
You mix it with cold water and it is ready to use. There is nothing to boil, cool or measure.
How do I mix Sweet Teazus brine?
Use one 32 oz jar per gallon of cold water, which works out to 1 part brine to 4 parts water.
For a smaller batch, such as a few pork chops or chicken breasts, 1 cup of brine in 4 cups of water is enough.
How long should I brine a turkey with Sweet Teazus?
About 1 hour per pound when you use one jar in one gallon of water. If you stretch one jar up to 1.75 gallons of water to cover a larger bird, brine about 2 hours per pound.
Keep the bird refrigerated or in an ice-packed cooler the whole time, and follow the brining times on the label.
How long should I brine pork chops or chicken breasts?
1 to 2 hours in the refrigerator. That is the timing Porch & Pit uses in its own grilled pork chop and fried chicken recipes.
Is one jar enough for a whole turkey?
Yes, as long as the bird stays fully submerged. A 2 to 4 gallon brining bag helps.
If one gallon does not cover it, use two jars in two gallons of water, or add water to one jar up to 1.75 gallons and lengthen the brine time.
Do I need to boil the brine or add salt?
No. Sweet Teazus is made to skip the boil-and-cool step of a homemade brine, and it already contains the salt.
After brining, season with black pepper, fresh herbs or a salt-free rub.
Should I rinse the meat after brining?
Yes. Rinse off the brine and pat the meat dry before cooking.
For crisper poultry skin, let the bird rest uncovered in the refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes before it goes on the grill or smoker.
What happens if I leave meat in the brine too long?
Over-brining can make meat too salty and turn the texture soft or mushy, especially poultry and pork. Stick to the times on the label.
Can I use Sweet Teazus on beef, lamb or venison?
Yes, on leaner cuts such as venison, lamb, pork loin and beef brisket. Use a shorter brine time and pat the meat dry before searing.
Well-marbled steaks like ribeye, strip and filet usually do not need a wet brine; a dry brine works better for them.
What are the ingredients?
Sugar, salt, natural rosemary flavor extract and tea concentrate (tea, water).
It is a concentrate for brining meat, not for drinking or direct consumption.
How big is the jar and how should I store it?
Each jar holds 32 fl oz (947 ml), about 64 one-tablespoon servings, and makes roughly 1 to 1.75 gallons of brine.
Refrigerate the jar after opening.
Who makes Sweet Teazus brine?
Porch & Pit, a family-owned small business in Columbia, South Carolina, founded by Preston Hall, a fine dining cook, and his father-in-law Jess MacCallum.
The brand is South Carolina Certified and the brine is produced in Hanahan, South Carolina. Northwoods Grills, a family-owned retailer in Charleston, carries it.
Can I use it for smoking, grilling and frying?
Yes. Brining happens before cooking, so it works with any method: smoked turkey, grilled pork chops, roasted chicken or fried chicken.
Brining is especially useful for long smokes and high-heat grilling, where lean meat is most likely to dry out.
Sweet Teazus Pork & Poultry Brine is a ready-to-use liquid brine concentrate from Porch & Pit, a small, family-owned sauce and seasoning company in Columbia, South Carolina. It is made with real Southern sweet tea and rosemary, so a turkey, a whole chicken or a weeknight pork chop comes off the grill juicy, tender and seasoned all the way through. Pour it into cold water and the brine is ready. No boiling, no cooling, no waiting and no sediment.
Why brine pork and poultry?
Lean meat dries out fast over high heat. A brine lets salt and water move into the meat before it cooks, so it holds on to more moisture, stays tender and is seasoned beyond the surface. That margin matters most on the lean cuts: turkey breast, chicken, pork chops and pork loin, especially on a hot grill or a long smoke.
Most homemade brines mean boiling salt and sugar, then waiting hours for the pot to cool before the meat can go in. Sweet Teazus skips all of that. Real sweet tea takes the place of plain sugar for a richer, rounder flavor, and rosemary extract takes the place of dried herbs, so the flavor spreads evenly and gets into the meat instead of floating on top.
A South Carolina small business
Porch & Pit started the way a lot of good Southern ideas do: in a rocking chair on a back porch after a good meal. Co-founders Preston Hall and his father-in-law Jess MacCallum wanted home cooks to get the tender, flavorful meat you get at a fine dining restaurant, whether it was for a backyard cookout or Thanksgiving dinner. Preston brought years of experience in fine dining kitchens, and Jess helped make that know-how simple enough for everyday cooks.
The result is a family business built around family, good food and gathering together. Porch & Pit is South Carolina Certified, and every jar is produced in Hanahan, South Carolina. Northwoods Grills is a family-owned retailer in Charleston, so we are proud to carry another South Carolina family's work. Their motto is right on the label: Blessed be the Brine.
How to use Sweet Teazus
- Mix. Use one 32 oz jar per gallon of cold water, which is 1 part brine to 4 parts water. For a few chops or chicken breasts, 1 cup of brine in 4 cups of water is plenty.
- Submerge. Keep the meat fully covered. A 2 to 4 gallon brining bag helps for a whole bird. If the bird is not covered, use two jars in two gallons, or stretch one jar up to 1.75 gallons of water and brine longer.
- Keep it cold. Brine in the refrigerator or in a cooler packed with ice.
- Time it. Chops and chicken breasts take 1 to 2 hours. A whole turkey or chicken takes about 1 hour per pound at one jar per gallon, or about 2 hours per pound if you stretched the jar to 1.75 gallons. Do not over-brine.
- Rinse, dry and rest. Rinse off the brine and pat the meat dry. For crisp skin, let poultry rest uncovered in the refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes before cooking.
- Season and cook. No extra salt is needed. Season with black pepper, fresh herbs or a salt-free rub, then grill, smoke, roast or fry.
Want more flavor? Add halved onions, squeezed citrus or whole sprigs of fresh herbs to the brine.
What to brine
- Turkey: the whole bird, a bone-in breast or a spatchcocked turkey for the smoker or grill
- Chicken: whole birds, breasts, thighs, wings, and chicken for frying
- Pork: chops, tenderloin and pork loin
- Other lean meats: venison, lamb and leaner beef cuts with a shorter brine time. Well-marbled steaks like ribeye do better with a dry brine.
Recipe ideas from Porch & Pit
Sweet Sunday Blackened Chops: bone-in pork chops brined for 1 to 2 hours, seasoned with pepper, paprika and mustard powder, then grilled to 145°F and served with apple slaw and creamy grits.

I absolutely love my Coyote gas grill! The quality is excellent, it looks beautiful, and I’m very happy with my purchase.
I also want to give a special thank you to Ryan at Northwoods Grills. He was incredibly helpful from the very beginning. Before my grill even arrived, he took the time to help me with measurements and answered all of my questions to make sure everything would fit properly. He was always very attentive, patient, friendly, and easy to communicate with. His customer service really made a difference and made the whole experience so much easier for me.
It’s not often that you receive this level of personal attention and customer service. I truly appreciate all of Ryan’s help and would absolutely recommend Northwoods Grills. Great product and outstanding customer service!
Fabiane Da Silva
Best pricing available for the product (checked all other on line retailers), and Ryan provided excellent responsiveness during the sales process. Loved dealing directly with the owner vs a sales person.
Delivery was completed within a week of the order and Ryan stayed in touch with consistent follow-up to ensure the products met my expectations.
Will recommend to friends / others looking for a high-end built in grill and matching cabinets.
