I did a Smoked Cajun Turkey back in June. It was 18.5 lbs, bigger than I would usually do, but it was free. Brined for 24 hours, injected with Tony Cachere's Jalapeno Butter, rubbed down with Dizzy Pig Swamp Venom, smoked at 350 with cherry wood for 4 hours and 45 minutes. Good stuff.

I spatchcock (cut out the backbone) all the time. Not sure if your question is as Griffin pictured or both ways. If spatchcock: 400 / raised / direct with very little cherry/pecan chips. If time I leave uncovered in fridge overnight (only if I have time). I like 11/12 lb turkeys as only takes a little over an hour to cook. I like a coffee rub on the bird. Also you never turn over the bird.

Forgot to mention, place setter legs up, drip pan underneath turkey. I'm sure Mickey's way works as well, I just haven't done it that way....yet. I've also done a Beer Can Turkey.

i like smoked turkey but for tday i go with a traditional roasted bird. its what people in my family would want. what you want to do is cook one before hand to see if low and slow works for you or if the roasted bird would go over better. you can add a little smoke to a roasted bird as well, pecan is good with turkey. heres a low and slow i did a while back, was shooting for a turkey pulled sandwich, went heaviey with the smoking wood

ha nice. I just joined few months so like 90% now are pork butts or spatchcockBoom -
As an aside: I like to cook the neck and gizzards as well. They are ready in about 25 min's and to me -- very good cooks food.
