  2. One 3- to 4-pound boneless turkey breast
  3. 1/2 head green cabbage
  4. 1/4 head red cabbage
  5. 1 medium carrot
  6. 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  7. 1/3 cup sugar
  8. 1/4 cup white vinegar
  9. 1/8 teaspoon salt
  10. 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  11. 3 cup fresh cranberries
  12. 1 cup sugar
  13. 1/2 cup orange juice
  14. 1 tablespoon barbecue spice rub
  15. 1 1/2 habanero chiles, finely chopped
  16. Four 6-inch deli rolls
  17. 8 slices Swiss cheese
  18. Barbecue sauce, for serving

Instructions

  1. For the smoked turkey breast: Combine 1 cup spice rub and 2 gallons water in a large container, then add turkey breast to brine. Cover and place in refrigerator overnight.
  2. Preheat a smoker for cooking at 200 degrees F.
  3. Remove turkey breast from brine and pat dry. Rub with remaining 1/2 cup spice rub. Place in smoker and cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 150 degrees F, about 3 1/2 hours. Remove from smoker and let rest 15 minutes, then slice thin.
  4. For the cole slaw: Meanwhile, thinly cut both cabbages and put in a medium bowl. Grate the carrot and add to the bowl. Add the mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar, salt and pepper and mix well.
  5. For the gorilla berry habanero sauce: Add cranberries, sugar, orange juice, spice rub and habanero to a saucepan. Cook, stirring occasionally, over medium-high heat, about 20 minutes. Break down with an immersion blender.
  6. For the sandwich: Cut open the rolls. Open and toast, with two slices of cheese on the top halves. When cheese is melted, remove from heat and add about 3 tablespoons Gorilla Berry Habanero Sauce to each roll bottom. Add turkey breast, barbecue sauce and 1/2 cup cole slaw to each. Close sandwiches, then cut in half and enjoy!

This sounds delicious, but they don’t give the break down of the spice rub. If you don’t want to give the whole recipe, then don’t give any of it
