Looking for ideas on how to cook a turkey breast? Rubs, injections, temp, direct/indirect! <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Have you tried looking the through the entries in the Cookbook on the right (Poultry), or done a "Search" in the box on the top right? I'll bet you find several ideas there.

OB1: for starters, I'd suggest just a rub you like and a little bit of smoke, and roast it like you would in your kitchen oven. You can try brining and injecting, but I've never really felt the need.
The Naked Whiz -
i have found a salt brine (1 1/2 cups kosher salt and 2 gallons of water with some brown sugar, worcestershire sauce and other seasonings you like) overnight gives the turkey a great flavor throughout. I worried about the amount of salt initially but find it works well. There are lots of recipes online and you can experiment with other favorite spices like rosemary, garlic, cayenne.

I want to try my 1st turkey breast this thanksgiving. Looked around and couldn't get the answers to temp and direct/indirect. Suggestions?
-
You can do either direct or indirect at 325 - 350. I've done both. Also did some bone in and boneless. They were all good.Every day is a bonus day and every meal is a banquet in Winter Springs, Fl !

Just saw a recipe by Bobby Flay. He says indirect and 350. Approx 90 minutes.
-
Cook to temp and not time. I pulled mine at 160.Every day is a bonus day and every meal is a banquet in Winter Springs, Fl !
-
brine if you like, apply rub of choice, indirect at 400 dome works for me, little or no smoke - pull at 160.
