Ingredients

1 bone-in turkey breast (about 4-6 pounds)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 lemon, juiced
1 cup chicken broth or stock

Instructions

Prepping the Turkey: Start by thawing your turkey breast in the refrigerator if it’s frozen. This can take a day or so, depending on the size.
Season it Up: In a bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, salt, pepper, brown sugar, and lemon juice to create a mouthwatering rub. Get in there and massage that rub all over the turkey, getting it under the skin too for maximum flavor. Let it marinate for at least an hour—overnight is even better!
Fire Up the Grill: Preheat your Traeger grill to 225°F. Once it’s heated, add some wood pellets of your choice for that extra smoky goodness.
Get Cooking: Place the turkey breast directly on the grill grates. Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the breast. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, which should take about 4-6 hours. Baste with chicken broth every hour to keep it moist.
Rest and Serve: Once done, remove from the grill and let it rest for 20 minutes before carving. This allows all those juices to redistribute. Slice it up and serve it with your favorite sides!

There you have it! Juicy, flavorful Traeger Bone-In Turkey Breast. This recipe is sure to bring everyone together around the table with smiles and full bellies. Enjoy, and let the good times roll!
