That one looks like it will be very hard to top!! Did you brine it or marinate it?

Just injected some garlic butter into the breast and thighs. I used canola oil if that would make a difference

Nice.

 

As for the oil difference,I have no idea.

It looks good and it doesn't appear as if the injecting caused it to get really dark in those areas, which sometimes happens. We tried a packaged sweet cajun marinade one time and the flavour was amazing!!! The appearance wasn't good, it looked like a bunch of huge dark bruises on the injection spots, as it got really dark in those areas. Strangely though the skin didn't taste burnt, but it sure looked like it was...
