How to make it

  • mix all brine ingredients together and place in a non metallic container ( I use a styrofoam cooler)
  • Place turkey in brine and refridgerate ( if you use a cooler place lots of ice in it and you won't have to put in the fridge)
  • Leave Turkey in the brine between 12 and 24 hours.
  • Start your smoker,(if you don't have a smoker you can use a kettle grill put coals on the outer ring for indirect heat place a pie pan in center of grill filled with water for the moisture and use apple wood chunks for the smoke)
  • Pat your breast dry with paper towels and put in the smoker
  • smoke between 230- 270 degrees for about 21 min. a pound or until an instant read thermometer reads 170 degrees
  • Let the breast rest for at least 15 min.
  • Enjoy
