Inject chickenbreast prior to Sous Vide?

[Elton's BBQ]

Just a quick question..
Can i inject chickenbreast before i sousvide 'em?

[bbqLuv]

You may, I don't know if you can or not!

I'll take your word for it.. :-) Thanks!

I would think that it would just end up in the purge. Potkettleblack should be able to claiify.

[Elton's BBQ]

Yeah that has been my thought too..

Yeah I wouldn't bother since I think it will end up in the purge. But it won't harm things.

[Potkettleblack]

I think you can. Modernist Cuisine has a recipe for an apple cider injected turkey breast that came out really well...
I dunno that it wont all end up in the purge, but if it infuses a bit into the meat, coats the meat on it's way out, what's the difference. Sous Vide produces the moistest poultry anyway.

Thanks for your input! I will try to inject the next time i do chickenbreasts Sous Vide.
