TONS of info here, but still need something a bit more specific.
I have scored some 10 pound boneless turkey breasts from a friend in the restaurant business. For years I have wondered where the BBQ joints and Caterers got their turkey breast, now I have some!!
I want to do some of the amazingly moist smoked turkey like I buy in the restaurants and BBQ joints and wonder how everyone here recommends to smoke it?
My assumptions are brine first? I'm hoping for just a simple brine that will help with the moisture content.
Also I have a MES that only goes up to 275 degrees. I have read a ton of different opinions....some say 'low and slow' and some say 'hotter and faster' is the answer for more moist meat?
Any thoughts would be appreciated. I have one of them thawing as we speak......hoping to get it on the smoker by the weekend.
