Heath Riles Beef Injection is designed to enhance any cut of beef with deep, savory richness and moisture that lasts from the first slice to the final bite. This championship-inspired blend is crafted with beef-forward flavors, hydrolyzed proteins, and phosphates that help your brisket, chuck roast, beef ribs, tri-tip, and more stay tender, juicy, and incredibly flavorful.
Whether you inject directly or use it as a brine, this pre-mixed formula ensures consistent results in the backyard or on the competition trail. If you’re tired of dry brisket flats or beef that loses moisture during long cooks, this is the solution pitmasters trust.
Why You'll Love Heath Riles Beef Injection- Inject or brine—works perfectly either way for maximum versatility.
- Enhances moisture retention during long, slow cooks like brisket.
- Deepens beef flavor with savory stock, yeast extract, and smoke notes.
- Improves tenderness for competition-worthy results.
- Easy-to-mix formula blends smoothly with water, broth, or other liquids.
- Brisket (packer, flats, and points)
- Beef ribs
- Chuck roast
- Tri-tip
- Prime rib and ribeye roasts
- Any beef cut that needs moisture during long cooking
- Mix the injection powder with water or beef broth according to the package directions.
- Stir or shake thoroughly until the mixture dissolves completely.
- Inject evenly into the thickest parts of the meat using a meat injector.
- Allow the injection to rest inside the meat for improved absorption.
- Optionally, use the mixture as a brine by submerging or bagging the beef.
- Use beef broth instead of water for a richer, more robust flavor profile.
- Inject the night before cooking for maximum penetration and tenderness.
- For brisket flats that tend to dry out, focus extra injection along the grain.
- Pair with your favorite Heath Riles BBQ rub for layered, competition-level flavor.
Should I inject or brine with this mix?
Either method works well. Injecting delivers faster, deeper penetration, while brining is great when you have extra prep time and want full coverage throughout the meat.
Can I use this injection on brisket?
Yes—brisket is the most common use for Heath Riles Beef Injection. It helps the flat stay moist during long smoking sessions and enhances beefy flavor.
How far in advance should I inject?
Injecting 4–12 hours before cooking is ideal for flavor absorption and tenderness, but even 30 minutes before cooking will still yield noticeable improvements.
Will this change the flavor of my BBQ rub?
No. The injection enhances beefiness without overpowering the rub. It works underneath your seasoning to create deeper, richer flavor.
What liquid should I mix it with?
Water works fine, but many pitmasters prefer beef broth for a fuller, more natural beef flavor.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
