Wow, have you read MH's Turkey recipe and techniques?
I did one a month ago. Unstuffed, box temp 325*F and cooked to an IT of 160*F. I used the S &G rub with oil. My only shortcoming was the skin did not crisp up. When I do another one I will start off at 400*F and work my way down to 325*F after the skins crispens up. Other than that my wife thought it was great as she doesn't do skin on birds. I also sliced the breast according to MH's recommendation.

Attempting the Ultimate Smoked Turkey on Sunday
Giving it a dress rehearsal before T-Day. Had to wait until this past Wednesday to get the Turkey, as Basha's didn't get their first delivery yet. Prior to that, only had a couple pre-stuffed, and turkey breasts.
Hoping I fare well. Have never smoked before, and doing in my CB.
Have already made the Simon & Garfunkel mix, and got a bag of Cowboy Apple wood chips. Also got the ingredients to make the gravy.
I will take some pics as I go, and post them to this thread.
P.S. - Tips are always welcomed!
