Sage, onion, chives, thyme, garlic, cayenne, pepper, oregano, and lemon are just a few flavors that pair beautifully with turkey. Injection recipes use herbs, citrus, and other ingredients that compliment the turkey’s flavor.

How long should you inject a turkey before frying?
Traditionally, a fried turkey is injected with a marinade before it’s cooked; how long before cooking is a subject of debate. You can inject the turkey anywhere from 24 hours to 5 minutes before frying. We had good results injecting two hours before frying.
How long before smoking should you inject turkey?
Make sure the turkey breast is thawed. I love to inject and rub my turkey 24 hours ahead of time to make sure the flavor is completely infused with the flavors. So if your turkey is frozen you’ll need to thaw it 48 hours before cooking day, inject/rub 24 hours before cooking it! Rinse and pat dry your turkey.

Set the timer and cook the turkey about 3 to 4 minutes per pound. Cook all dark meat to an internal temperature of 175° F to 180° F, and all white meat to an internal temperature of 165° F to 170° F. Here’s some help on how to check your turkey’s temperature for doneness.
How long do I cook a 19 lb unstuffed turkey?
In an oven set to 325 degrees Fahrenheit, cooking an 18- to 20-pound unstuffed thawed or fresh turkey will take between 4 1/4 and 4 1/2 hours, according to the USDA. This amounts to about 14 minutes of cooking time per pound. For a 19-pound turkey, this comes to about four hours and 26 minutes.
Is 3 gallons of oil enough to fry a turkey?
Fill the pot with peanut or canola oil up to the mark you made earlier—you’ll need 4 to 5 gallons to fry a 12- to 14-pound turkey in a 30-quart pot. Turn the burner on, adjust the heat to moderately high, and heat the oil until the thermometer registers 375°F.
Is it better to brine or inject a turkey?
While injecting adds more flavor to meat than brining, it isn’t quite as good at keeping the meat moist. You can inject a brine and let it sit overnight, but it’s not quite as effective as soaking the meat. Injecting can also be more work.
Does injecting a turkey make it juicier?
Flavor injecting turkey not only adds flavor to the meat but also results in a moist and juicy bird. The flavoring is injected into the meat of the turkey as opposed to rubs that only season the skin. Injecting a turkey with a flavored liquid is a good technique for producing moist, flavorful meat.
Should I spray turkey while smoking?
So can you make juicy smoked turkey without basting it? The answer is yes and I guarantee you. If you decide to baste the turkey while smoking, good options are chicken stock, apple juice or apple cider vinegar diluted with water. You can also spray the turkey with cooking spray.
Should I inject turkey while smoking?
I recommend getting the rub, injection, and gravy (if you’re making it) ready ahead of time so you can focus on smoking the turkey. You can even do this the night before if you need to make an early start.
Do you flip a turkey when smoking?
When the timer goes off, rotate the turkey on the rack to ensure it is cooking evenly on all sides. I never flip the turkey. It stays on the back, breast up, the entire cook. It takes about 3 ½ hours to smoke a 10-12lb turkey but checking the internal temps is key.
