Turkey breast w/ leftovers

Went to the store and found turkey breast on sale. Seasoned with DP Raging River and cooked on the egg with some cherry. It went for about two hours @300 to reach 165 degrees. I started at 250 and bumped the egg to 325 after an hour to finish by supper. Served with some leftover taters and asparagus. Not bad for an easy meal. Oh, and I made a balsamic reduction with raspberries.

Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...
"Bourbon slushies. Sure you can cook on the BGE without them, but why would you?"

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    It looks mighty fine to me. Clever use of the leftovers as well. I like enjoy posting as well. Even when I bomb.

    That is a very tasty looking plate.  If you wouldn't mind I would like to hear more about the reduction.

    @Mattman3969 Friend, it doesn't get any easier. I used one cup of basic (not expensive) balsamic vinegar. Add it to a small saucepan and bring up to a simmer. I added several frozen raspberries - didn't measure but maybe 1/4 cup? Let this simmer until it reduces by about half. It will nap the back of a spoon well when finished. I just mashed the fruit with a fork - it cooked into the sauce. Total time maybe 15 - twenty minutes.just keep an eye on it while reducing - you don't have to stay with it the whole time.

    Looks first class! Think I'll cook the breast that's in my fridge this afternoon, and follow your lead.  Thanks!
