--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1                    Turkey breast, bone-in
     1/2   c            Honey
     1/4   c            Sherry, dry
   1       tb           Butter
     1/2                Lemon -- juiced
     1/2   ts           Salt
   1       d            Liquid Smoke -- (opt)

  Rinse turkey breast and pat dry.  Heat honey, sherry
  and butter in a saucepan.  Remove from heat, stir in
  lemon juice and salt (and the few drops of Liquid
  Smoke).  Pour honey mixture (we recommend you cool the
  mixture thoroughly first) over turkey breast and let
  stand, covered, in refrigerator for 3 to 5 hours (we
  think overnight is much better, several days is okay,
  too, turning at least twice a day). Place turkey
  breast on smoker grid and baste.  Baste once again
  when almost done. See below for times:
  
  Charcoal Smoker:  Use 7 pounds charcoal, 4 quarts hot
  water (we make a portion of this white wine, and put
  in an onion, a few celery stalks, a lemon cut in half,
  a few cloves of garlic and a couple bay leaves), 2
  wood sticks (we use about 4 to 6 hickory blocks,
  soaked for at least an hour in water), and smoke 3 to
  4 hours.  (Stop about 1/2 hour early if you plan to
  reheat at a later time in the oven; we don't usually
  do this, but rather pour hot gravy over the sliced
  turkey if we want it warm.)
  
  Electric Smoker:  Use 4 quarts hot water (see
  recommendations for charcoal smoker for our
  suggestions), 2 wood sticks (ditto) and smoke 2-1/2 to
  3-1/2 hours.
