  • Smoked Boneless Turkey Breast

    Now is the time our thoughts turn to the holidays, turkey and…barbecue! (OK, if you’re like most Southerners, no matter what month of the year it is, your thoughts never turn far from barbecue.)

    Here is one of the very best recipes that Bull Weaver (NGL’s favorite pit master) ever dreamed up for us. Voted our favorite (and the fastest disappearing ‘que he ever made!)

    From December of 2007:

    Smoked Boneless Turkey Breast
    From Bull Weaver

    First, buy a 2.5 pound turkey breast (This will serve 4 people)

    Now, make the rub…

    Rub:

    3 Tbsp. light brown sugar
    1 Tbsp paprika
    2 tsp. fresh ground black pepper
    2 tsp. kosher salt
    2 tsp garlic powder
    2 tsp onion powder
    ½ cayenne pepper
    1 tsp dry mustard

    Combine all rub ingredients and set aside.

    Now, wash the breast and pat it dry. Remove the bones from the turkey by using poultry shears or a sharp knife to cut out the ribs. Also remove any excess fat. Discard the bones and fat. The breast should lie fairly flat.

    Now, cover the breast in the rub, working in thoroughly, and refrigerate the breast for several hours or up to overnight.

    30 minutes before you are ready to grill, soak hickory chips or chunks.

    Prepare the sauce:

    Barbecue Basting Sauce:

    1 stick unsalted butter
    ½ cup maple syrup

    Prepare the coals. When the coals are ready, place a drip pan under where you will place the breast and toss the chips on top of the coals. (If you are using a gas grill, you can put the chips in your smoker box, cover the grill and run it on high until the chips are smoking well; then reduce to medium.)

    Baste the turkey two or three times while cooking (it should take about hour). Test for doneness with an instant read meat thermometer; the turkey should be done at about 170 degrees.

    To some that may sound like an odd combination – The Lakewood 400 Show. After all, Lakewood is the area south of Atlanta where the old Lakewood Fairgrounds- the fairgrounds for the city of Atlanta- were for many, many years.

    But there is a reason.

    Dear me! What happened to that recipe!!!

    Yes, there was an error in our October issue in a recipe for Apple Cake (and it is, by the way, delicious!). Here is the corrected cake recipe.
