Ingredients
  

  • 4 lbs boneless, skinless turkey breasts
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp Texas Rub If unavailable, use a 2-1 ratio of kosher salt to coarsely cracked black pepper
  • 1 stick butter

Instructions
 

  • Set smoker for indirect cooking at 275o F using a medium smoking wood (I prefer oak) for smoke fuel and flavouring.
  • Spread mayo on turkey breast and then coat fully with Rub.
  • Smoke turkey breast on pit for 2 hours.
  • Chop the butter into small to medium-sized pieces. Place half on a doubled-up piece of aluminum foil and put the turkey breast topside over the butter. Put the rest of the butter on top and wrap another piece of foil around it.
  • Put the turkey back on pit and insert a meat thermometer.
  • Cook until internal temperature reaches 165o F.
  • Remove from pit, let rest for 20 minutes and then slice and serve.
