Figured we may as well keep the turkey talk going...

I'm going to be cooking some extra breasts this year, and I always like to inject. I usually inject butter mixed with chicken broth, but I'm thinking of trying one of the commercial injections such as Cajun/creole butter etc.

What's your go-to turkey injection of choice?
 
Scottie's Creole Butter

Ingredients
1 can beer of choice
1 pound butter
1 tbsp Big Time BBQ Rub (or your favorite rub)
1 tbsp Paprika
1 tbsp freshly ground white pepper
1 tbsp sea salt
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tbsp dry mustard
1 tbsp freshly and finely ground black pepper
1 tsp Cayenne

Instructions
Melt the butter in saucepan and add the beer and spices. Mix well. Let cool, then inject.
 
Tony C's creole butter. This year instead of injecting I'm going to brine two breasts. I'm using Tony's C's creole seasoning in the brine though.

I plan to brine and inject. I figure the Harvest Brine will penetrate a decent bit into the meat, but I'm looking for some more flavor deeper into the meat.

Digging on the ingredients list here. Wonder if this could be made well ahead of time and refrigerated or even frozen without too big a flavor hit.
