Steps:
- Remove the turkey breast from the packaging but leave the net intact as this is what holds it's shape while it cooks.
- To a medium pot add 1 quart of water, 1 TBS of course ground black pepper, 1 TBS of red pepper flakes, 2 long sprigs of thyme, 2 long sprigs of rosemary and 8-10 garlic cloves smashed with the side of a knife.
- Bring to a boil then remove it from the heat and let it steep covered for 20-30 minutes.
- Place the mixture in the fridge for several hours to cool.
- To make the brine, add 3 quarts of cold water to a gallon sized pitcher and 1 cup of kosher salt.
- Stir the mixture until the salt is dissolved.
- Add the cooled mixture from the fridge into the brine and stir to combine.
- Place the turkey breasts into a brining container and pour the brine over the turkey to cover and then into the fridge for 4 hours.
- After brining is complete, rinse the turkey breasts under cold water.
- With the net still intact, brush on a little cooking oil and season the outside of the turkey breasts liberally with Jeff's original rub.
- Set the seasoned turkey onto Weber grill pans, Bradley racks or regular cooling racks and they are ready to go into the smoker
- Setup your smoker for cooking at 225-240 °F with indirect heat.
- When the smoker is preheated, place the pan with the turkey breasts into the smoker.
- Let the turkey cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 162°F.
- Remove the turkey from the smoker and let it rest under loose foil for about 10-15 minutes.
- Remove the net from the turkey breasts being careful to not disturb the crust more than necessary.
- Slice and serve.
