Ingredients: 
whole turkey breast, 4 to 5 pounds, skin removed 1 cup
paprika 1 cup
light brown sugar 1 cup
salt 1⁄2 cup
ground black pepper 1⁄4 cup
garlic powder 1⁄4 cup
ground mustard 1⁄4 cup
chili powder 1⁄4 cup
onion powder 1 tablespoon
cayenne pepper 2 tablespoons
Directions: 
To get started, I preheated my smoker to 250°F. I mixed together some rub ingredients in a bowl using a whisk or my gloved hands. I generously sprinkled the turkey breast with 2 tablespoons of the rub on all sides. I placed the breast on the grill over indirect heat and cooked for about 90 minutes until it got a beautiful mahogany color and the internal temperature reached 130°F. I then wrapped the turkey tightly in foil, flipped it over, and put it back in the smoker until the internal temperature reached 165°F, which took about 45 to 60 minutes longer. After removing the foil and retaining the collected juices, I let the turkey rest for 30 minutes before slicing it and pouring the juices over the meat. Enjoy!
