Smoking A Turkey Breast

hairbearMember

OK, I am going to smoke a Turkey Breast....It weighs about 7 lbs. How long should this take and how much wood should I use (I am thinking about 2 oz of wood and 5 hours at 225). Yes, I will be brining it...just using a basic brine of salt and sugar.

I have never brined anything, but I will do turkey breasts that I inject with a mixture of Butter, white vinegar, garlic salt and pepper.
An 8lbr usually takes about 6 hours to get to 160.

I dont brine mine. Just rub in mayo then generous dose of your favorite rub (I still like CS Chicken rub). In my 008 with 2 oz of apple wood at 225*. Only takes 3 hrs to hit 160. Very consistant in time and flavor. We love these and they dont last near long enough. I bet I could do 2 a week and we (3 of us) would still eat them all up.
