Im going to smoke a turkey on my UDS for Thanksgiving. Should I use a brine or inject it...or BOTH??? Any help would be great. Thanks to all!!

I brine my turkeys. They always come out great! Just use an ice chest and a couple big turkey bags. Put the brine and turkey in the bag, seal it, put another bag over it, throw in the ice chest and pust some ice on top. I brine for about 24 hours or so.
I've done several hundred fried and smoked. I inject with creole butter and "rub" with Cajun Shake for both methods.
I would make sure the turkey wasn't already injected with a solution already. Quite a few turkeys are already enhanced just like ribs.

I did a 24h brine last year came out great, with sage, rosemary, thyme, garlic butter medallions under the skin mmm boy. Here is the link for the brine good recipe from a fellow brethren. I plane on doing it again this Turkey day.
