Hi Guys. I did a 8 pound turkey breast on the traeger last night and it came out tasty, but rubbery. Off-puttingly rubbery, to be exact!
I brined the bird overnight in water salt and brown sugar, set it the smoker to 325 and cooked to an IT of 165. The bird was on a rack over a pan of water and apple juice.
What did I do wrong? Im thinking the water in the pan, but this is the instruction that Traeger gives on their website (don't ask me why I followed that, but I did).
Help!
