Honestly, I'm still mad about that $80 'competition-grade' injection marinade kit

Tbh, I followed the instructions exactly on a pork butt last month and it just made the meat weirdly salty and wet. Has anyone else had a bad experience with these pre-made injection mixes, or should I just stick to my basic brine?

weirdly salty and wet" is the perfect description.

Right? It's like that one specific kind of bad potato chip... the bag feels wrong when you pick it up. You just know what you're in for. A total sensory letdown before you even taste it.

Wait, wait, wait. "Salty and wet"? Like not just a little damp but actually wet? Are we talking the kind of potato chip that feels like it was left in a steamy bathroom for three hours? Because that's a whole different level of betrayal. I swear I've had a bag like that where I pulled out a chip and it was literally limper than a piece of paper that fell in a puddle. Just the thought of that weird wet texture mixed with the salt makes me feel kinda sick honestly.
