Under the right circumstances I think injecting is great, just so long as it's not the jars of premade injection marinade (Cajun Injector brand for example) being used. Every one of those I tried, it always seemed to create a funky texture in the meat and a very off flavor after the cooked meat has been refigerated overnight.
