FRIED TURKEY RUB WITH CAJUN INJECTION



Fried Turkey Rub With Cajun Injection image

This recipe came from a Southern gal who obviously knows her food. She wrote on the recipe "the basis for a good fried turkey is the rub." I must say I agree with her on this one, this is the only way we cook our turkey now. The rub and injection are a great combination--I guarantee a moist, flavorful bird. Cooking times are estimated based on the size of your bird.

Time 50m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons kosher salt (DO NOT USE REGULAR SALT! WILL CLOG YOUR INJECTOR)
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons white pepper (DO NOT USE BLACK PEPPER, WILL CLOG YOUR INJECTOR)
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 cup melted butter

Steps:

  • Melt butter slowly as not to burn.
  • Add rest of ingredients and mix well.
  • (I place in a covered bowl and shake vigorously).
  • Inject into your turkey and allow to sit for one hour or more before deep frying.
  • HINT: We were cooking the turkey while camping, and decided to leave it in the bag to inject it, so it would not be so messy!
  • It worked great!
