Beer and Butter Turkey Injection Marinade

This simple turkey injection marinade will add loads of extra flavor to your oven-baked or smoked turkey. The beauty of the injection marinade is that you can use it on all types of poultry, including whole chickens, pheasants, cornish game hens, and more.

What does this beer and butter turkey injection marinade taste like?

This injection marinade contains lager, which is mellow but has a clean finish. That combined with the butter and spices produces a flavorful savory marinade. If you are not keen on using beer, you can substitute it with sparkling apple cider, which is sweeter than beer but has a clean, crisp flavor.

Need an Injector for the Honey and White Wine Turkey Injection Marinade?

[TAG12]

The Ofargo Marinade Injector is a classic style syringe. The marinade is sucked up through the needle and then pushed back into the meat. The needle on this model is large enough that it shouldn’t clog. Still, make sure that your marinade is near water thin. It is an inexpensive unit that you can purchase for around $10. It is dishwasher safe and durable enough to last for several years. The volume on this injector is small, but it will handle most jobs for a single-family.
