Bought a $300 'competition-grade' brisket injection marinade kit online, total waste of cash
Saw an ad for this fancy injection kit from some brand I'd never heard of, claimed it was the secret to championship bark and moisture. The stuff smelled like a chemical plant and left this weird, almost metallic aftertaste in the meat. Ruined a perfectly good 16-pound prime brisket I'd been prepping for two days. The bark never set right either, stayed kinda gummy. Should have just stuck with my usual simple brine of beef broth, Worcestershire, and a little brown sugar. Anyone have a go-to injection recipe that's actually worked for them, or is it all just hype?

Just beef broth and a little soy sauce works for me.

That's a solid base, @robinp72, but try adding a splash of Worcestershire sauce too.
