I saw a program last night on different regional Thanksgiving food products. One segment was about the Cajun Turkey Co. and the stuff they call “Geaux Juice” that they inject their deep fried turkeys with. Has anybody...

Shoeman, Does this including injecting the bird with a flavorful marinade as well? Or did the bird go in “naked”? Our neighbor did one last year and used cajun spiced injection which I think overwhelmed the turkey...

38th between 7th and 8th. Grabbed a square grandma slice and a chicken parm hero at a window table as the place opened at 11:30am after a business meeting. Good stuff. Thanks again hounds for injecting some pleasure into my 9 to...

A truly smoked ham is almost indefinite, as long as it has not been cut open. Old fashioned hams are salted and then smoked as part of the preservation process. Most hams are now injected with only smoke added for a flavoring,...

Virginia may be for lovers, but Maine is for cookie lovers. I haven’t had a bad cookie since I entered the state, and, sure enough, the ones at Weaver’s Bakery (101 Main Street, Belfast, Maine; 207-338-3540) were...

Family Diner (7911 North Carolina Highway 68 North, Stokesdale, North Carolina; 336-643-8853) is killer, a serious revelation. It left me shaken and giddy.

I took the advice of a couple of posters and soak my HORMEL 30% SALINE INJECTED PORK LOIN, in water for a few hours and changed the water every hour. After soaking i placed on a rack in the fridge to dry out. I rubbed with...

Pre-deep fried turkey is just not that good. When you re-heat it you end up with dry turkey which defeats the purpose of deep frying. For much less cost you can get the cajun marinade and inject it and roast the bird and it will...

Of the major chains, Market Basket is the Pork King. Better quality and generally much lower prices than Stop and Shop, Shaw’s, and the others. Careful with Stop and Shop’s cryovac pork, it’s usually Hormel...

See Craigs List. I think some folks will fry up your own turkey and even inject and baste if for you. You drop off your bird and go back to pick it up.

overall results is to inject flavored oil (I like mine with fines herbs) into the turkey’s flesh before roasting. Get a BIG veterinary syringe from the feed store and pump in about a cup of oil. Roast the turkey breast down...

tastier (my friend also noted that the meat didn’t taste meaty—perhaps the supplier injects it with water?). And where do chowhounds think there will be good corned beef hash tomorrow? Thanks for any tips.

am opening a mex restaurant and want to support local farmers, etc while avoiding hormone injections. can’t buy sides of beef or whole cows/pigs, etc. but want to buy local. any suggestions? thanks!!!!
