CHILI SPICED SMOKED TURKEY BREAST (ON THE GAS GRILL)
Smoking the turkey was easy and resulted in THE most juicy and moist turkey DH or I had ever eaten! Cooking with indirect heat was key. I found the inspiration for this recipe on the web but have added some fresh herbs. You will not believe how the smoke flavour permeates the meat!
