I brine almost all my meat, poultry and pork for sure. The expensive brine we sell where I work for Thanksgiving has Juniper berries, and we sell out every year...all you'll need is salt, maybe star anise, dried fruit peel, I usually drop in all kinds of spices I don't use otherwise!

I have them gathering dust in my pantry as well. They're listed as an ingredient for chicken salad in the wonderfully creative (but sometimes out of print) Frog Commissary Cookbook.
