SMOKED TURKEY
Steps:
- Combine all brine ingredients in a large stockpot (if it's large enough to fit your turkey) or turkey brine bag. Place the turkey in the pot or bag and make sure it's completely covered.
- If using a stockpot, place the lid on the pot. If using the bag, seal up (by knotting the bag or clipping with a locking clip) and set it in a roasting pan to prevent any accidental leaks. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
- The morning of, remove the turkey from the brine (over the sink to minimize any mess) and rinse it off completely, including inside the cavity. Pat it dry (a wet turkey is a soggy cooked turkey).
- Very gently separate the breast skin from the meat, being careful not to rip it. If you're wearing rings, take them off so they don't rip the skin either. Stuff the softened 1/2 cup of butter under the skin and press it over the entire breast (pressing from the outside of the skin is the easiest method).
- Salt and pepper the inside of the cavity and place the onions, rosemary, sage, and 3 Tbsp cubed butter/ghee.
- Wrap the prepare turkey in plastic wrap and place in the roasting pan in the fridge for 30 minutes to an hour to allow the butter to firm up. Remove from fridge and discard the plastic wrap and coat the turkey in more salt and pepper, patting dry again beforehand in case condensation has collected under the plastic wrap.
- Turn the smoker on and allow the fire to get started. Turn the heat up to 180°F and place the turkey (still in the roasting pan) directly on the smoker grates for 2 hours. Turn up the heat to 225°F for another hour. Finally, increase the heat to 325°F for approximately 1 more hour, or until a quick-read thermometer reads 160°F in the breast and 180°F in the thigh (test in the thickest parts).
- Remove from the smoker and let rest for 30 minutes before carving.
- Once you've gotten all the meat off the turkey, make a broth out of the carcass (get the recipe here).

Steps:
- Preheat Traeger grill to 250 degrees.
- Rinse turkey inside and out in cool water, pat dry.
- Place turkey on a rack in a roasting pan.
- Melt 1 stick of butter in a bowl, then add in all of the spices/seasonings, whisk together.
- Rub the turkey all over with the butter mix, inside and out, and get it under the skin, too.
- Place the turkey in the roaster, UNCOVERED on the grill and close the lid. Set a timer for 2 hours. Do NOT open the lid during this time.
- When the timer goes off, add the second stick of butter to the bottom of the roaster, and cover the turkey.
- Turn the temperature up to 325 degrees, and roast for another 90 minutes. Check the internal temperature in the thickest part of the breast, it will reach 165 degrees when it's done. If it hasn't reached that after 90 minutes, cover and continue roasting, checking every 20-30 minutes until it does.

Steps:
- Preheat the Traeger grill or whatever smoked you're using to 225 degrees F. Make sure there are enough pellet wood chips in the smoker to last a few hours and you have a drip pan in place. In this demo, the Traeger wood pellet blend was used, but Maple, Hickory, and Cherry pellet wood chunks are good options, too.
- Make the smoked turkey breast poultry seasoning. In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients for the poultry seasoning (onion powder, garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, sage, paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper). Set aside.
- Place turkey breast on a work surface and pat turkey breast dry with paper towels. Coat all over with melted butter by using your hands to massage the butter into the turkey breast.
- Season the turkey with the poultry seasoning (use as much as desired - in this Traeger demo, all of the seasoning was used). Use your hands to massage the seasonings into the turkey breast.
- Place your turkey breast on the smoker grill grate and cook for 40 - 45 minutes per pound, until the internal temp reaches 160°F. You may find that some recipes say 30 minutes a pound will work, but I have found that is not enough time at 225°F.
- The exact smoked turkey breast time will vary based on how large of a turkey you're smoking. Use an instant read thermometer to verify when your turkey does reach an internal temperature of 160-165°F (note: 165°F is the official safe temperature, removing it at 160°F in theory allows time for the turkey to keep cooking up to temperature). Remove from heat.
- Wait at least 20-30 minutes before slicing so the juices can settle. You can cover the turkey breast with tin foil to keep it warm and leave it out at room temperature.

- Brush the turkey with olive oil and sprinkle on the all-purpose seasoning and salt & pepper. Coat all sides, turning as needed.
- Use 3 strips of bacon and wrap it around the middle of the turkey breast. I usually place a piece around the very middle, then one on either side. Turn your turkey breast and wrap 3 slices of bacon around the turkey going the other direction. Use the 2 remaining strips of bacon to cover any parts left exposed.
- Turn on your smoker and set the temperature to 250 degrees F. Insert wood pellets. I like to use cherry wood.
- Place your turkey breast on the grill grate and insert the temperature probe into the center of the thickest part. Smoke for 3-4 hours, until the internal temperature reads 160 degrees F.

- Mix ingredients for spice rub in a small bowl. Generously sprinkle turkey breast with spice rub on all sides (and inside, if desired). Store extra spice rub mix in covered container for additional uses.
- Turn the Traeger to SMOKE setting with the lid open. After about 4-5 minutes, you should see lots of smoke coming from the grill, meaning the pellets have ignited. Turn temperature to 325° F and close grill cover. Let the Traeger preheat for about 15 minutes. Once preheated, place seasoned turkey breast directly on grill grate. Close the cover, and let it cook for approx. 1 hour and 45 minutes. Cooking times will vary slightly because of differing weights of turkey breasts used. Continue to check the internal temperature using a probe inserted into the thickest part of the breast, to ensure you don't overcook or undercook the turkey breast.
- When the turkey breast has reached an internal temperature of 165° F, pull it off the grill. Transfer turkey breast to a cutting board, and let it "rest" for about 15 minutes before slicing. This "resting time" helps the juices redistribute inside the meat. Once turkey has "rested", slice, and enjoy!

- Gather all the ingredients. You will also need heavy-duty aluminum foil and meat probe. If your turkey breast has the skin and bone attached, remove them carefully. I asked the butcher to remove them for me. My turkey breast was 5 pounds with skin and bone, and 4 pounds after removing them.
- Preheat the smoker to 265°F. The smoker temperature will range between 250 – 285 while it’s cooking but that’s fine. If it gets too hot just open the lid for a bit for it to cool down. You don’t want it too hot since the turkey will become dry.
- Place the turkey, skin side up in the smoker (the side that previously had the skin). Attach the meat probe and cook until golden brown, or when the meat probe says 140ºF (60ºC) (typically around 2 hours).

- Mix together the oil and seasonings, and then get to rubbing. You want it alllll over the outside of the turkey. Bonus points for getting a little between the skin and the breast too.
- Fire up the Traeger according to factory instructions, and preheat to 250. Place the turkey + pan on the grill, uncovered. Close the lid of the grill and set your timer for 2 hours, because you don't want to peek before then.

- Smoke 2 Small Turkeys Instead of 1 Large One. Larger turkeys have a tendency to dry out on a smoker since they take so much longer to reach the appropriate temperature.
- Brine Your Smoked Turkey. When thinking about Smoked Turkey Preparation, one of the most important things to do is brine the meat. Should I Brine a Turkey?
- Don’t Stuff Your Smoked Whole Turkey. I don’t recommend stuffing a turkey if you are smoking it. Here’s why you shouldn’t stuff a smoked turkey
- Cook by Temperature, Not Time. There are a few things to know about smoking your turkey, and an important keys to success is cooking by temperature.
- Don’t Lift the Lid of Your Traeger. Heat and smoke escape every time you lift the lid. Just don’t do it. Your thermometer will tell you everything that you need to know.
- Don’t Make Panic Induced Adjustments. Perfect, tender, smoked turkey takes time. Don’t be impatient. When smoking, meat can often experience a “stall.”
- Finish the Smoked Turkey in the Oven. You can certainly keep the turkey on your Traeger Smoker until the breast meat reaches 165 degrees F. I prefer another way.
- Let The Turkey Rest. I know, the last thing you want to do after spending ALL DAY smoking a turkey is to wait even longer before slicing in to it.
