If you’re craving bold, smoky flavor without committing to a whole bird, this Mesquite Smoked Turkey Breast is the perfect backyard barbecue upgrade. Using a boneless, skinless turkey breast means quicker smoking and juicier results, while a simple seasoning of sea salt, black pepper, and a brush of oil lays the foundation for that irresistible mesquite flavor. As it smokes low and slow, we baste it with a crisp lager or pilsner and melted butter to lock in moisture and add a touch of richness. But the real showstopper? The sauce.

Whether you’re firing up the smoker for a weekend cookout or testing new holiday ideas, this recipe brings the … Continue reading
