Wild Turkey???

[00buckshot69]

I have 1/2 of a wild turkey breast from the spring hunt. It's going in the smoker. What would you do with it?? I also have some chicken leg quarters???? PLEASE give me some ideas!!!!
Thanks,00Buck

In my opinion, wild turkeys aren't as moist and tender as domestic turkeys. I use either a brine on it or slap some bacon on the breast. Also try not to overcook it. Just one opinion. :)

You got a couple hours to dump into a brine? All it will take....

Definitely brine. I just did one over the weekend and didn't brine. It was OK but it would have been a lot better if I had brined. Make sure to foil to help keep some juice around (at foiling stage) . Good luck.
