Italian Herb Turkey Injection Marinade
Italian Herb Turkey Injection Marinade
Instead of rubbing your turkey with butter, herbs, and spices, try injecting the flavor right into the meat. Injecting turkey is a method that flavors meat from the inside, tenderizing it while slowly spreading the flavors through the bird. Injection marinades can be used with traditional turkey marinades, turkey rubs, and even turkey brines.
