Store bought turkey breast and a wild turkey leg and thigh. both coated with yellow mustard and rub generously applied.
The seal on the leg package didn't hold so gotta get it used. Figure I'd try smoking it to determine how ill do the others.
For the breast, I put a can of apple juice into the cavity to help hold it upright and maybe to infuse some more flavor into the meat.
Pulled the leg after about 1.5 hours. the internal probe said it was at 191 but I know it reads way high. Wrapped it in foil and put the in cooler while the breast finished.
Pulled the breast at 162 degrees.
After wrapping and resting, the leg wasn't quite done inside so threw it in the oven for anohter 15 minutes.
the breast came out awesome. The leg and thigh will take some getting used to. The meat is fairly tender and has good flavor, but the texture is a little different.
