Cajun Fried turkey Recipes?

Why does it matter which way you go through the breast? You are still making a hole in the meat.

I almost started rubbing Tonys all on the outside/under the skin and thought that it would be too much. I think I did it last year and it was a little too overpowering.

You do get more flavor that way. When you rub down the outside, so much seasoning comes off in the oil. Which is also why the third bird will always taste better than the first. The correct and proper way is to seperate the skin and rub in between, leaving the skin on. When we do the big deal, we just rub the outside. But we are cooking 150 or so per day, the oil is filtered, reused, and freshened up throughout the process. Nor do we have time to separate the skin and meat, that's a time consuming process.

Yea I got done injecting it, and went to get the can of Tonys and realized what happened last year. I just don't like the overwhelming taste with doing both injection and rubbing.

I do make sure I rub underneath the skin on beer can chicken.

It's a little late now,but you go in through the cavity, along bones, etc. You can also get in to the breast by going though the hole where the neck is.

Thanks man, it worked out. However, I did puncture the skin when I injected the wings.
