Best Hot And Spicy Poultry Injection Recipes

CAJUN-INJECTED SPICY TURKEY

Steps:

• Make the marinade by combining the Worcestershire sauce, crab boil, apple cider, honey, beer, salt, allspice, Creole seasoning, cayenne, olive oil, and minced garlic in a blender and process until very smooth, about 5 minutes. Fill a large syringe* and inject turkey in the breast and thigh area, as well as the back, wings, and legs, with at least 2/3 of the marinade. You will have to fill the syringe numerous times.
• Preheat the oven to 420 degrees F and line a large roasting pan with aluminum foil.
• Season the injected turkey well both inside and out with the kosher salt and black pepper. Place the turkey in a large roasting pan lined with aluminum foil and pour the remaining marinade all over the turkey. Bake the turkey uncovered for 30 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F, add 1 cup of the chicken broth to the roasting pan, and continue to bake the turkey until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the deepest part between the thigh and the leg registers 165 degrees F. (If the turkey begins to brown too much, tent loosely with aluminum foil until it is done. Also, add more broth as necessary to keep the bottom of the roasting pan from burning.)
• When the turkey is done, remove it from the oven and set aside to rest at least 20 minutes before carving.

HOT AND SPICY POULTRY INJECTION

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients and stir until the salt dissolves.
• Inject into chicken and put on the spit. You may baste the chicken with any left over sauce.
• Note: Discard any left over sauce after the chicken is cooked.

TURKEY INJECTION SAUCE WITH HONEY, HERBS AND SPICE

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a pot and simmer for five minutes.
• Cool.
• Strain cooled sauce.
• Using an injecttion needle inject liquid into the turkey throughout all the breast and thighs.
• Making one hole inject 1/3 of the liquid and move needle 1/3 of a turn to inject a 1/3 turn again and inject remaining.
• (This is so you are not putting holes all over the turkey).
• 2 injections per thigh and 3 per breast should be good.
• This can be marinaded 1-24 hours before you cook the turkey. Any that oozes out rub gentle over the turkey.
• Proceed to grill, fry or roast your turkey.
