Injecting chicken thighs?

[bmillin]

I never messed around with injections but curious. I am prepping some leg quarters with a Mojo marinade, is it worth the trouble to inject them?

I've injected thighs in the past and liked the results, I've also done the breast and didn't really notice a flavor or moisture difference??? Try injecting one with some butter and chicken broth and leave the other alone. I would be interested in you're results.

I have never considered it. I think there is plenty of fat and flavor already in the chicken thighs. I think you would be better off marinating and basting as the cook progresses. Injecting makes too much of a mess, to be worth it.

Agreed.
Not that I haven't injected chicken before but I would much rather wet brine or dry brine at the very least...

I have injected it with Chicken Broth
Not sure if it was worth it, but I am still learning

Done it several times experimenting, Don't think it's worth it they are juicy enough, as they are. On the package you will see they may have already been.
