I'm kind of torn with all the great turkey prices. I kind of want to buy a bunch at like $0.25/lb and $0.49/lb that the stores are selling them for in my area. I want to cut off the legs and smoke them separately... BUT what would I do with like 100 pounds of turkey breast that I have no freezer room for and I already have like almost 200 pounds of meat I just processed in the freezer! lol So torn. Such 1st world problems :D
How critical is brown sugar to thw recipe? I about sugar in my rubs rtc as mich as possible. Usually for brown sugar in something like this I sub either Splenda or Swerve with a touch of molasses

For this smoke I don't think it is critical at all and your substitutes would likely work.
I however would think that sugar or a real sugar derivative helps when really needing cure to penetrate all the way through for safety reasons. This smoke is hot and fast and the cure is only for taste purposes not safety purposes :)
