I've been looking all over trying to locate Tony C's injections but all I can find is the dry spices you sprinkle on food. I realize most areas have only regional grocery stores but do any of you have trouble locating this stuff? I'm looking for the Creole Butter injection. Thanks.

Price Chopper doesn't have?

I'll be in KC (Leawood) for Thanksgiving - I can get the stuff in the local supermarket in St L - want me to bring you a bottle or two?

Pretty common in most stores around here. Publix, Winn-Dixie, Wal-Mart, Target all carry it.

My local store has it seperate from the dry seasoning. I think it's usually by the dry baking goods like cornbread mixes. Might ask someone at the store where it would be.

Haven't tried Wal Mart or Target Super Centers. I just figured that if the more "uppity" stores didn't carry it, the general ones like Wally World wouldn't either. I'll check it out.

WSM, no, Price Chopper (the two I was at) didn't have the marinade. They only had the dry seasoning mixes. Neither did Hen House or Hy Vee or my local Dillons. I appreciate the offer but by the time you'd get here, I'd already have needed the stuff so I'll keep looking. If worse comes to worst, I'll order from the Web site.

Thanks for all your replies on this.

Don't think Tony C's is a Neiman Marcus kind of thing. http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/4.gif

Well guys, I struck out! The boss is in Wichita today so I took a really long lunch. Checked about six different places and no luck. The meat department guy at one place told me I could get the same results by melting a couple sticks of butter and dissolving a teaspon or so of the Tony C dry stuff in and injecting that. What do you think? I've never had this stuff in the marinade format so I have no clue how spicy it is supposed to be. Any suggestions?

The good news is... as part of that extra long lunch, I snuck home and cooked up a crock pot of my brisket chili, set the table and pulled out the Fritos and hot bean dip. All I need when we get home is a cold beer and some shredded cheese! Mmmm!!!

Jeff.....as a last resort, you could order it online but our Bass Pro Shop carries a ton of the Tony C stuff. Do you have one in your area?

Not unless I go to Columbia or Springfield. The big Bass Pro in the KC area won't be open for a couple of years I think. Seems they're having fun moving dirt back and forth instead of building anything yet...

Though we sell many Tony C's products, we don't sell the injections. We sell Uncle Buck and Cajun Injector brands of injections.

WHEW! Thanks for speaking up on this, Kick! I would have hated to jump in the car and head towards Columbia only to find out BPS there doesn't have it!

I'm thinking I'm gonna try making my own with real butter and Tony C's dry Creole seasoning and see what happens. Just don't want to over-do it on the Creole stuff. It's a bit spicy for some folks, my wife included.

Jeff, if you do not have the time, order the marinade online. However, if you have the time, make your own. I personally like my Italian dressing based marinade (strained of course!), but anything butter based would probably taste better than the canned stuff. My brother-in-law and I fry several turkeys over the holidays, and we haven't used the canned stuff for several years. Just my $0.02.

I think I'll do that, Noah. I'm just not sure how spicy the stuff you can buy pre-made actually is. I don't want to pi$$ off my wife by making the Thanksgiving bird too spicy for her and the rest of the family. I'll probably play around with it this weekend (if the danged thing thaws out in time!!!) and go from there.

Jeff,
Its not real spicy, it is more sweet and buttery. Actually, when you open the jar, it kind of has a weird sweet smell that turns a lot of people off. But the flavors change during cooking.

Thanks Noah! I'll be sure to go light on the dry seasoning in the melted butter! It packs a bit of a kick!
