Smoked Turkey Breast

Took my first crack at smoking a turkey breast yesterday evening after work.
250°(ish) for 3 1/2 hours.
I used a bourbon-honey glaze that was richly applied three separate times toward the end, and OMG!!!!!

The glaze was kinda thrown together, but it was soooo good!
About 1/2 stick of butter
Probably 3 Tbsp of REAL maple syrup
Somewhere between 2-3 Tbsp of honey
3 Tbsp of Woodford Reserve bourbon. I used Woodford because I was out of Blanton's. Woodford is a cheaper bourbon, but is still of decent quality.
I just heated everything in a sauce pan until it was combined and almost boiling. I glazed LIBERALLY at the following temps:
150, 160, 167 -

I think you are my new hero. My husband thought I was nuts a few years ago when I bought like 8 turkey breasts and put them in our deep freeze, because they were going for $.99 lb. But he was right, I am nuts. The glaze looks amazing
