This Cajun turkey injection marinade will make a delicious moist turkey for your smoker or the oven! You can even deep fry it! Just put all of your turkey marinade ingredients in a blender, then inject under the skin of the bird. Save 1/3 of the marinade to pour over before you smoke it or put it in the oven. Add a can of chicken broth to the bottom of the pan before cooking, so you can make an awesome gravy!
Use injector to place under the skin all over the turkey. Use the rest of the marinade over the turkey.
Bake uncovered 30 minutes at 420 F, then reduce to 350 F. Add 1 cup of chicken broth to the pan, and bake until the turkey leg reads 165 F on an internal thermometer.
Let the turkey rest 15-20 minutes before slicing.
