Author Notes: There are a plethora of commercial jarred injectable marinades available at the supermarket or gourmet shops, but why buy something that's so easy to make yourself?

For this recipe, I use Watkins Barbecue Sauce Concentrate. These potent sauce concentrates make great flavor bases for barbecue flavored fried turkeys and they are always a huge hit with crowds. The concentrates come in three flavors: Original, Honey and Mesquite. Pick your favorite style, they all work well in this flavorful injectable marinade. They also make wonderful sauces that are way easier than homemade and way better than store bought.

While we tried many of the injector needles on the market, we found the inexpensive plastic models to be equal to (or in some cases better than) their more expensive counterparts, and we found the plastic injector needles are more flexible and durable than the metal types, which easily bent or broke.

Ingredients: 3 tablespoons melted butter
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
3 tablespoons Watkins BBQ Sauce Concentrate (flavor of your choice)
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon Tabasco® sauce (or to taste)
Instructions: Makes plenty of marinade to inject an 8-15 pound turkey.

Mix all ingredients together in a small saucepan over medium heat until all ingredients are dissolved and well blended. Let cool to room temperature before injecting in the turkey. Before putting the marinade in the injector, whisk the mixture well to emulsify all the ingredients together.
