I smoked 6 bone-in turkey breasts for my sister-in-law's Church yesterday. Cajun style. About 9 lbs. each. They got rave reviews.

Awesome looking turkey! Turkey is one of my favorites on the smoker. Excellent color on those! Did you brine first?

No, I get better, juicer, more flavor results by injecting.

Injected or brined bone-in breasts are the best! Great job, looks very tastey. Guess I'll have to find turkey for lunch! [emoji]127831[/emoji]

Those look like some fine breasts!!  Great color also. Details on the injection?  Curious as to where you can get that many big ones?

I love Cajun anything, stationed 6 yrs. in La.  I have a very large roasting chicken and now I have plans for it.   Spatchcock ,  rub, then creole butter injection.  Thanks for the inspiration!!
