Steps:
- Make the marinade by combining the Worcestershire sauce, crab boil, apple cider, honey, beer, salt, allspice, Creole seasoning, cayenne, olive oil, and minced garlic in a blender and process until very smooth, about 5 minutes. Fill a large syringe* and inject turkey in the breast and thigh area, as well as the back, wings, and legs, with at least 2/3 of the marinade. You will have to fill the syringe numerous times.
- Preheat the oven to 420 degrees F and line a large roasting pan with aluminum foil.
- Season the injected turkey well both inside and out with the kosher salt and black pepper. Place the turkey in a large roasting pan lined with aluminum foil and pour the remaining marinade all over the turkey. Bake the turkey uncovered for 30 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F, add 1 cup of the chicken broth to the roasting pan, and continue to bake the turkey until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the deepest part between the thigh and the leg registers 165 degrees F. (If the turkey begins to brown too much, tent loosely with aluminum foil until it is done. Also, add more broth as necessary to keep the bottom of the roasting pan from burning.)
- When the turkey is done, remove it from the oven and set aside to rest at least 20 minutes before carving.
BEER AND BUTTER POULTRY INJECTION MARINADE
Steps:
- Combine all ingredients in a saucepan over low heat. Stir and heat until the salt has dissolved, and the sauce is even and runny. Remove from heat and keep warm (but not hot) enough to inject.
- Fill marinade syringe with the mixture and inject into turkey breast, legs, and thighs. It is better to inject it in more places rather than fewer (40 rather than 4). Try to aim for the center of the meaty portions. Inject about 2 teaspoons per location (less if you see it oozing out).
- Season outside and under the skin with whatever rub you're using. Cook as directed for the correct amount of time .
- Discard the remaining marinade after use. It will have contacted raw poultry. Even though only the tip of the injector may have come in contact, it can be contaminated with salmonella and could transmit food poisoning.

Steps:
- Prepare a kettle grill with charcoal off to one side for indirect grilling and add the soaked apple wood or mesquite wood chips over the coals. Remove the neck and giblets and pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Brush chicken all over with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper and 3 tablespoons dry rub. Set aside.
- Open the beer can, pour out about 1/2 cup of the beer into a cup and drink it (or pour it over the wood chips). Make an extra hole in the top of the can with a church-key can opener. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon dry rub to the beer can (it might fizz up a little bit at the top, but don't worry, that is normal), the garlic and rosemary.
- Hold the chicken above the can of beer and slide the chicken over the can. Fold the wings back behind the chicken. Make sure the legs are in front of the can, supporting the chicken. Place the chicken inside a disposable pan.
- Place the pan on the grates of the grill on the opposite side of the charcoals, put lid on and cook the chicken until golden brown and the internal temperature registers 160 degrees F in the breast area and 175 degrees F in the thigh area on an instant-read thermometer, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the grill (be careful not to spill the contents of the beer can as it will be very hot) and let rest for 10 minutes before carving.
- Use a pair of locking tongs and grab the bottom of the beer can to remove from the chicken cavity. Place on a platter or cutting board to rest and cool. Carve and serve.

BEER N' BUTTER POULTRY INJECTION
Use this marinade to reach deep into the meat of poultry. It works really well on turkey. Make sure the mixture is warm to keep the butter in liquid form. I also add some Cajun seasoning to the mixture. Double it and refrigerate leftover mixture for later use; just rewarm.

Tips:
- Use Fresh, High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your dish. Choose fresh, organic poultry, unsalted butter, and flavorful herbs and spices.
- Properly Prepare the Poultry: Rinse the poultry thoroughly and pat it dry before injecting. This will help the marinade penetrate the meat more effectively.
- Inject the Marinade Slowly and Evenly: Use a marinade injector to evenly distribute the marinade throughout the poultry. Inject the marinade slowly and carefully to avoid tearing the meat.
- Let the Poultry Marinate: Allow the poultry to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will give the marinade time to penetrate the meat and infuse it with flavor.
- Cook the Poultry Thoroughly: Cook the poultry to the proper internal temperature to ensure that it is safe to eat. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the poultry before serving.
