Turkey breast cooked super fast(?)

Yesterday I did two 7 pound turkey breasts on the (non)BGE.  At 325 dome, they finished in an hour and 45 minutes. This was a shocker, they came out great and took on a lot of smoke, but I'm astounded by how short the cook was.
In comparison, pre-egg, I would shoot for 325-350 on my weber smoker, and would always finish by around 3.5 hours.
Anywho, here they are before I pulled theme off! Left is cajun rubbed, right is Greek seasoned.

    Special KJ design that spikes temps early on turkey breast.  that was a standard upgrade to their 2017 model.  Wait 'til you see what they come up with in 2018!
