    Well this was late and sorry for not having a picture of the whole bird. I brined the turkey for 24hrs, injected with Cajun butter and used a poultry drub rub. Smoked for 3 hrs using apple wood.

    Well I pondered buying a new smoker for some time (upgrading from a Masterbuilt Propane model) and settled on a Weber Smokey Mountain 22.5! One of the reasons I selfishly picked this over say a Traeger or an offset box smoker was the opportunity to modify the unit to my liking. :) Anyways...
