Smoking 2 5-7lb bone in Turkey Breasts.

[Frank Lombardo]

Happy Turkey Day.

I have already brined them in :
Apple Juice Turkey Brine
1 gallon apple juice, chilled
1 cup Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt
1/2 cup honey 3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
Mix in a non-reactive container until dissolved. Makes 1 gallon of brine. Substitute 3/4 cup Morton Kosher Salt or 1/2 cup table salt for Diamond Crystal.

for 12 hrs. now are air drying in the fridge.

I am looking for some clarification on how long and at what temp I should smoke these birds at?

My trial breast went for 1 hr 35 mins at between 325-350. It turned out excellent.

Thanks in advance for any help!!

I would do it just like your trial. IMHO no need for low and slow on turkey breast.

Yep, just redo what you already did in your trial run. I do mine like you did yours: Turkey Breast - Bone-In

Enjoy!
