    I cooked a couple turkeys for a friend like that the past thanksgiving.  he wanted an "overnight" turkey smoked.  I said ok, did it.  Actually don't remember getting any feedback from him....(maybe not a good sign).  Anyway, I'll have to ask. 

    I think if you don't go past 175 in the breast, or at least try to carve it right after cooking, you can get some good smoked meat.

    have done many turkeys and a few chickens low and slow, you really do need to get the breast meat higher in temp, at 165 its safe but the texture says its not done.  heres a turkey all done wrong that was so right on point

    it will be good, texture wise its great but it wont have the fully roasted feel. makes a great chicken salad sandwich. if you have some broth, put some shredded in a slotted spoon and dip it, use a second slotted spoon on top and squeeze out the extra broth. build the sandwich on a cheap hamburger bunn...lettuce, chicken, mayo,  its called a chicken barb, only served in the merrimack valley

    I think yours is going to be better from the pics. I did not raise it into the dome--only gasket high which is where I normally cook. And I am at 200. I am not going to get the color you did on that bird, for sure. Great looking look you did.

    You got it my friend. Three boys and chicken is cheap. My parents taught me to wring every penny out of it.

    By the way-side note, how you doing on mustard.

    Finished up the low and slow letting it rest before I pull it. Had a taste—oh boy. Like cooking in the Dutch but smokey goodness.
