This injector by Grillman<\/a> is a solid option. I\u2019d recommend going with a stainless steel injector – it\u2019ll last a lifetime, unlike plastic. To me, a solid metal injector is worth spending a couple extra bucks on.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSome pitmasters swear by the injection method, so you certainly should give it a try!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brining a Brisket vs. Making Corned Beef<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Some people do get these processes mixed up. It\u2019s understandable, since they both require brisket and salt. However, they are completely different methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
