This was my first attempt at a homemade turkey injection recipe. It was excellent. I didn't have the crab boil seasoning, but used everything else. Delicious!

We love this injectable marinade. It not only gives this turkey a wonderful taste but it makes every piece of it moist and juicy.

Good flavor, but I like grapefriuit instead of orange juice.
