Apparently none of our grillmeisters understand the concept of brining

It's a simple concept y'all!

I have done some research and find that most do not brine but those who have said it is very good. Here are some findings:

8.12lbs Boston butt...How long should I brine? - BBQ Source Forums

Brining Boston Butt Roasts for Pulled Pork

Here is Alton Browns take on it.
