There not as exotic as they sound (they're frequently used in German cooking). As for a substitute, I'm not sure if there's a really good one. Juniper berries and pork work very well together. I'd probably leave it out if I didn't have any. According to Wikipedia, gin is flavored with juniper berries so you could try adding some gin. I've never tried it, however.

It would be better than not brining it at all. You could also keep it in a 200F oven virtually indefinitely (after being cooked) without too many ill effects.

I'm trying to keep it warm for a party. thoughts? this sounds incredible. do you think the brine would be effective if I only had overnight to brine it? also, I’m wondering if I could leave the oven on a lower temp and leave it in there longer.
