Yup. Injecting butter is the way to go.

IMO that helps with moisture more than anything else.

Wet brine doesn't do as much as people think. I put my rub under the skin,

I've found that just smoking it properly gives all the moisture needed. No turke

That is my plan, just wondering if it is would be too much and taste bad.

Check your Turkey label. Its probably already injected with 5-15% liquid.
