BBQ Turkey Breast
BBQ turkey breast is one of the healthiest and most delicious grilled dishes, highly valued in American BBQ traditions. Turkey meat is naturally lean, but slow grilling and BBQ glaze make it juicy and irresistible. The perfect balance of flavors is provided by the smoked spices and the caramelized BBQ glaze. Tip: For an even richer flavor, let the turkey breast marinate overnight in the spice mixture to allow the aromas to penetrate deep into the meat!

Preparation Steps
1
Remove the turkey breast from the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature for at least 20 minutes to ensure even cooking.
2
In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and brown sugar. This will be your dry rub.
3
Rub the turkey breast with olive oil, then evenly sprinkle with the spice mixture. Massage it in to ensure it adheres well.
4
Preheat your grill to medium heat (approximately 350°F or 180°C). If baking in the oven, preheat to 400°F (200°C) on convection bake.
5
Place the turkey breast on the grill or a baking rack and cook for 20-25 minutes, flipping once halfway through to ensure even cooking.
6
In a small bowl, combine the apple cider vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. During the last 10 minutes of cooking, baste the meat with this mixture.
7
During the last 5 minutes, begin brushing the turkey breast with BBQ sauce. Coat all sides to create a beautiful, glazed finish.
8
Remove the turkey breast from the grill or oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the meat moist and flavorful.
