Give your Turkey the smoke it deserves. This bird is brined in our signature citrus brine kit, rubbed down with turkey rub and smoked over non other than our turkey blend hardwood for flavor inside and out.
The day before, brine the turkey according to the traeger turkey brine kit package directions. Remove from brine, rinse and pat dry.
Season the inside cavity with 2 tablespoons traeger pork and poultry rub reserving the rest for the exterior.
Prepare the turkey by separating the skin from the breast creating a pocket to stuff the softened butter in. Cover the entire breast with 1/4 thickness of butter.
Season the exterior of the bird with remaining rub. Transfer to the fridge and let chill for at least 1 hour.
Remove from the fridge and truss the legs and truck the wing tips back around the bird.
When ready to cook, set the traeger to 225F and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.
Place the turkey in a roasting pan and place directly on the grill grate. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 100-110F.
Increase the temperature on the grill to 150F and continue to cook until an instant read thermometer registers 160F when inserted in the thickest part of the breast (check every 30 minutes after grill temperature is increased), about 3 to 4 hours total cook time. Turkey will continue to cook once taken off grill to reach a final temperature of 165F in the breast.
Remove the bird from the grill and let rest for at least 30 minutes before carving.
Enjoy!
