Turkey breast

[Garywilco]

Smoking a turkey breast this weekend for my inlaws. I watched a couple videos on YouTube and saw a few people cook them meat side down and then flip towards the end of the cook. I've always cooked meat side up. Cooking on 22" kettle. Any thoughts on which way is better?

"Meat side"? You should remove the skin when smoking turkey breast, it gets rubbery and unpleasant. I usually cook them on my offset but when I had a 22" kettle I just smoked them at 250 for 3-4 hours, nothing special, "skin side" up

When i can find them i cook them how Sandro describes. Skin side up on my offset with the skin removed. Once they get golden brown i might wrap them in foil to get them finished without getting too dark.

Look up the way Franklin does turkey and just follow that. You should be able to find a good thread here that Sako started.

No skin, SPG, smoke until 140 or until bark is set. Wrap tightly in foil with a stick of butter until 160 and let rest.
