Zubereitung von Chili Spiced Smoked Turkey Breast On The Gas Grill
- Prepare the turkey breast: Remove any excess skin and pat the breast dry with paper towels.
- Combine chili spice rub: In a bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons chili powder, 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Rub the turkey: Generously apply the chili spice rub all over the turkey breast, ensuring it's evenly coated.
- Prepare the grill for indirect heat: Preheat your gas grill to 250°F (120°C). Turn off the burner(s) in the center of the grill, leaving the outer burners on. Place a drip pan under the turkey to catch any drippings.
- Add wood chips (optional): For an even smokier flavor, soak wood chips (e.g., hickory, mesquite, or applewood) in water for at least 30 minutes. Once soaked, place them on the hot coals or in a smoker box on one side of the grill.
- Place the turkey on the grill: Place the seasoned turkey breast on the cooler side of the grill (away from direct heat).
- Smoke and cook: Close the grill lid and cook for approximately 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 165°F (74°C). Maintain the grill temperature between 225°F and 275°F (107°C and 135°C) throughout the cooking process. Add more wood chips as needed, approximately every 45 minutes.
- Rest the turkey: Once cooked, remove the turkey from the grill and let it rest, loosely tented with foil, for at least 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving.
- Serve and enjoy: Slice the turkey breast against the grain and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh herbs (e.g., cilantro, parsley) if desired.
