Looking For An Injection Kit

johnkitchens · July 2015

I want to purchase an injection kit mainly so I can cook those pork burnt ends that I have been seeing so many here on the forum kill!

I found this one on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000KDZ1VA/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

Any recommendations anyone can give? Will the one I picked out be ok?

If you are looking for a solid injector that is basic, then that fits the bill. I have the same one.

I have something similar, but with a clear syringe, kinda like the ones I use in the office on a daily basis!

I like the offset ports on the needle because it spreads the injectate on each side of the needle with one insertion.

Only drawback I see with doing pork burnt ends is the sheer number of times you will be refilling the master syringe. And injecting each piece will be rough on the fingers with the narrow rings on the syringe.

Can you recommend a better one? I have only used the ones that came with the injection kits and they are pieces of junk. This is the first time I have ever even thought about getting one.

Check out the BDI (Best Damn Injector) - http://www.howtobbqright.com/bbqshop/bdi.html

I bought this one because a friend had one just like it and I really liked his. I honestly don't know the difference in it and the one you picked out, but I can tell you I'm extremely happy with mine.

I'm looking at the Chops Injector. Its got a 4-prong injector tip for injecting slabs of meat. I am sure I can figure out some way to get a single needle attachment.

There are some racheting style that looks like pruning sheers with a big syringe on them. Those would be better on the hands, but they do have a bit more of a pricetag to them.

Look up Spitjack and the Chops Injector.... Aso look at the BDI from Killer Hogs BBQ.

The BDI looks pretty awesome. I've been wanting to purchase an injector for quite a while.

I have that one John and it gets the job done. The major problem I have is the one with multiple holes is hard to fill without sucking a lot of air. Almost takes two people, one to tilt the bowl/cup one to pull the plunger.

This one's only $100

The first injector linked is a good one for the money, never been a fan of the "twist connecters"-threaded is better. IMO What you put in the meat (injection) is more important. We love BUTCHERS injections.

I've had the same issue until I just grabbed a 60cc syringe from the clinic. Its the same needles threading as normal syringes.

If I have to refill the syringe, I will use a small pair of vice grips or a hemostat to grasp the needle and twist it off of luer lock.

Now of we could take the Chops injector system and have a foot pedal so we could inject all those little meat cubes by actuating a foot control to free up out hands, I'd go for that!

@johnkitchens I have that exact one. Just don't lose the o ring when cleaning. Works great for me.

I have that one as well from turkey frying. Works great. Also available at Walmart.

I have the injector you listed, but the needles are very large so really only suited for big hunks of meat. I later found the same one with a small needle and I like it better. It would definitely be better for the burnt ends IMO.

Here it is...

It was only $6.88 when I got it. It is the same injector with a reducing adapter and a smaller needle which I prefer. Unless you are injecting a whole hog the larger needles are overkill IMO.
