I suggest a good overnight brine. I make a strong "tea" of the flavor profile I want, cool with ice and then brine overnight, pat dry then let it set out in a cool, airy spot until a pelicule forms. Then smoke as desired.
Spatchcocking or halving the birds works best for me.

I'm more of a dry brine guy. +1 on the spatchcock approach.

Occasional injector here...
This is one I use and available most everywhere.
Tony Chachere's Cajun/Creole Butter Injectable Marinade

For a flavorful chicken injection, try a mix of 1/2 cup chicken broth, 1/4 cup melted butter, 1 tbsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp onion powder, 1 tsp paprika, and salt to taste. Inject evenly throughout the bird for juicy, flavorful meat!

Definitely a good price on Amazon if you're a Prime member. This is at most of the box stores near me. Walmart, Food Lion etc.

Here is a simple one that I use - AND you know what's in it.

Poultry Brine Injection
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon sugar
4 cups water or low sodium chicken stock, or a mix of both

Can this be used on meat besides poultry?

As far as I’m concerned it will.
I’ve done it before

I think I'll try this type of approach for brining. Cooling with ice seems like a game changer! I agree, spatchcocking is the best.
