Since Thanksgiving is around the corner, I thought I should see what it was like to cook a turkey breast on the BGE. I went to Outdoor Home to buy some lump charcoal and visited with a guy about cooking a turkey breast. He was cooking one at the store so suggested I purchase Fire & Flavor Mustard and Herb Blend rub. He suggested I rub butter on the turkey along with the herb rub. I purchased a Honeysuckle White 6.65lb frozen turkey bone-in turkey breast. It took 3 days in the fridge to thaw out. I used the inverted plate setter and put foil on top of it to catch the drippings. I got maintained the heat at 325 and cooked the turkey for over 3 hours using a thermometer to get the heat to 160 degrees. I did let it cook a few minutes over when the I had checked it and I think I overcooked it a bit. It was slightly dry.
