A bit late, but we decided to smoke a small turkey as a test.

Started with a 12 pound turkey 6% solution.

No brining for this bird just a generous lather of butter and herb rub above and below the skin.
Smoked at 230 with maple for about 4 hours. Then upped to 275 for about 30 min to crisp the skin....pulled at 162 IT.

Wife picked up a 12 pound butterball for me to smoke for Christmas...so another bird will be forth coming.
