5 Gallon Bucket Liner Bags for Marinading and Brining - Durable, Food Grade, BPA Free, 25/Roll

I actually thought I was ordering a bucket that came with the bags, but they work great for a great many things.

They work well when new. It's highly probable you wont use them all. At around the 2 year mark if they're stored away for later use they begin tearing. They arent as durable.When brining our brisket last year we had to triple wrap because the bags kept ripping when trying to fill them.Still a great buy. 10 bucks and we brined about 4 briskets before we ran into trouble.It's almost brisket season so we will be purchasing again.

Bought this bag for construction purposes, rated for 25 pounds wet. 2 separate times, the bag ripped with what could not have been more than 5-6 pounds of wet weight. Your better off buying garbage bags for not much more if at all!

Liners are easy to use and seem strong enough to hold up over time. I am using mine for dry food storage. When I went to buy additional buckets at Lowe’s, I found I could get food grade buckets for $1 more than regular ones. I’m still glad I have these bags as I can close them tighter as I use my dry goods and keep extra air out. (As a side note, I found two part food grade lids at Lowe’s also. Outer ring snaps on with rubber seal, and rest of lid screws on easily with another seal. This keeps from having to try to get the outer ring on and off each time you want to access your food.) Even with these new buckets, I’m glad I purchased these liners. I like their suggestion of using them for a brine, especially for whole chickens or turkey. If I didn’t have a large crock I would have used them for making kraut. Compared to trash can liners, they may seem a little pricey, but you have to consider these are food grade and will last a long time for storage. I will buy more as needed.

I love this product! I have a very small maple syrup cooker and I only collect about 50 gallons of sap so I use these liners in my 5-gallon pails. They work great and don't leak.
