First Turkey

Former Member

Smoked my first turkey breast today! The breast was the best and moistest bird I have ever had on a fork, but I did have that rubber skin thing going on. Think I may skin it next time.

Thank you all for the good tips and Somkin for TURKEY 101,

Bob

With only 2oz, what did you think of the smoke flavor level?

Was it mild since you used cherry?

I would say the breast got plenty of smoke with only 2oz of cherry and would prob not add more the next time. Think one of Smokin's rules is start with less and work up when it comes to wood. The smoke was mild, but over all taste was Excellent. I used the cherry on the advise of
a friend and Turkey 101.

I like to smoke up several beasts,split, foodsaver,and freeze them for instant company meals,etc.

The couple ounces seems to carry through plenty of smoke flavor when we thaw them.
