    Default Injecting that turkey

    Yeah, we know a lot of you can't cook or grew up with people who couldn't so you hate dry turkey. Who doesn't? We get it.

    For those who do and can, anyone got a good injection recipe or just off the shelf?

    Never tried this one but a friend of mine is doing some variation that includes melted butter and bourbon. Not sure what the other spices/flavors will be but I'd likely stop with just the first two.

    I brine rather than inject.

    Tony’s injection has always been good to me! I put more thought into the seasoning then the injection.

    I think my mil injects them with the tonys kit. I dont eat turkey that isnt fried or bbq’d because they are too dry. Hers is on point though

    Brine.

    Did one for the office last week. Brined 24 hours. Smoked it Thursday and serves it on Friday. Plenty good and nowhere close to dry.

    I brine then inject and smoke. Follow this recipe to a T and your family will enjoy it I promise.

    Brining. This is the way. Also, if you start your bird upside down when roasting you get that good fat run through to keep it juicy and self-basting.

    If smoking it I just use Tony's for injection and spatchcock it. If you want to add more flavor make yourself a compound butter and separate the skin from the breast and leg quarters but don't remove it. Take and rub the compound butter under the skin on the meat and then give the skin a good seasoning. I promise it won't be dry if cooked to the proper internal temp and that butter will do wonders.
