    Smoking a whole turkey for guests

    So, this is far in advance, but I'm thinking about Thanksgiving.  My plan is to smoke a whole turkey.  Yesterday, I smoked some chicken thighs and made pulled chicken sandwiches. They were very good, but today after they sat overnight in the fridge, the chicken is "sneak over to the fridge at...
