Turkey Barbeque

Ingredients

2 (3 lb) turkey breasts or 1 breast and 1 small turkey roast that has some light and dark meat, thawed (They are packaged exactly the same which is how I accidentally discovered how much I like the mix.)

1/2 c apple cider

optional: 2 tsp liquid smoke

For Rub:

1/2 c paprika

1 Tbsp garlic salt

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp celery seeds

2 Tbsp brown sugar

Directions

Light your grill.

Rinse turkey and pat dry with paper towels.

Combine all ingredients for the rub together in a small bowl.

Rub all over the turkey.

When the grill is hot, brown turkey on both sides about 10 minutes a side.

Preheat oven to 275 degrees

Remove turkey from the grill and put in a large baking pan lined with enough heavy-duty foil to be able to completely wrap the turkey.

Add the apple cider and liquid smoke, then wrap the turkey in foil sealing the edges.

Roast for 4 hours.

Cool and pull apart or chop – personal preference!

You can use any barbeque sauce you like, but I’ve been making this for years and love it.
