Ingredients

  • 1 Boneless turkey breast roast (Butterball; keep the cooking netting on while seasoning and smoking)
  • Duck fat (For use as a light binder coating)
  • Coarse black pepper (For seasoning)
  • Kosmos Q Dirty Bird Rub (Apply a generous layer; amount not stated)
  • Unsalted butter (Add after removing the cooking netting; amount not stated)
  • Kosmos Q Cherry Apple Habanero BBQ Glaze (Coat the roast after removing the cooking netting; amount not stated)
  • Charcoal (Royal Oak; fuel for the smoker, amount not stated)
  • Hickory pellets (Smoker fuel; amount not stated)
  • Hickory wood chips (For extra smoke; amount not stated)

Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the smoker to 325°F (163°C). The author uses charcoal, hickory pellets, and hickory wood chips for smoke.

  2. 2

    Remove the turkey roast from its packaging. Pat it dry, leaving the cooking netting in place to hold the roast together.

  3. 3

    Apply a light coating of duck fat to the roast as a binder.

  4. 4

    Season the roast with coarse black pepper, then apply a generous layer of Dirty Bird rub.

  5. 5

    Place the roast in the smoker and cook at 325°F (163°C) until its internal temperature reaches 155°F (68°C).

  6. 6

    Remove the cooking netting. Add butter and coat the roast with the Cherry Apple Habanero glaze.

  7. 7

    Rest the roast before slicing. The author held it in a food warmer for about an hour, keeping it warm and allowing the temperature to carry over to 165°F (74°C). A dry cooler lined with a towel is mentioned as an alternative warmer.

Notes

No ingredient quantities or roast weight are specified. The transcript says the roast is already in a salt brine solution, so additional brining is unnecessary. The source cautions not to rely on carryover cooking alone to reach a safe temperature; verify temperature and hold time for poultry pasteurization. The estimated cook time is not stated in the source and can vary with roast size and smoker conditions.
