    Injected pork butt and still a little dry...?

    Well, it turned out pretty good and everyone was raving about it, so a few things went right. But I definitely appreciate the insight on this because I never really thought about it that way and will get it to a better temp next time. Thanks guys!

    Pulled chicken, using chicken breasts?

    I did end up doing a short brine, as well as inject with Tony Cs creole butter. While it obviously looks more chopped than pulled, it still came out fantastic and not dry at all. Thanks for the tips, I'll be doing this again soon!!!
