This is also good to inject into chicken, then bake it in the oven.
The bird is tender and moist.

Yup. I brine and inject cornish hens. Then bring them to the "Q".
Back in the days when I was cooking for just myself I'd usually eat
them off the rack.

The stove, fridge and breakfast bar were the only necessary pieces of
furniture I needed when I was living alone. I remodeled my living
room and it sat empty for 2 years. The small tv was on the floor. I
furnished the room shortly before I met Snot. Now, one kid thinks the
couch is a trampoline and the other can't keep her feet off the
pillows. I watched the Cubs kick Atlanta's butt in the kitchen on a
27" tube while cartoons were on the widescreen in the living room. We
made plans last night to bring everything up to the weekend house and
get back to basics here. Bean bag chairs and computer desks.

But we do have 2 refrigerators the kitchen.

(laugh!) Well, I'd be careful sitting on the ground by that thing,
where you live, you could just freeze the family jewels to the
patio.

Doubt not. Is there *any* other country that deep fries turkeys, and has
special equipment made up to do it??

I left the part you originally referred to injecting. I find it hard
to believe it's only done in America.

And another poster here bought a used turkey fryer at a flea market or
whatever they are called in Japan. I guess they've made it over the
pond also.

I have fried a number of turkeys and wonder what the effect of a water based
marinade would be when the bird is lowered into the hot oil. Even with a
well dried bird I find lots of foaming and it has to be lowered very slowly
or the pot biols over, not a thing that you really want, especially as I
have the burner on high at that time to keep the oil temperature up.
