Anyone have a smoked turkey recipe?? Or any tips on smoking a turkey?

When i smoke my turkey i usually start off brining it....one cup kosher salt, one cup sweetener( I use molasses) and some enhancers (peppercorns, bayleaf, etc) dissolve the sugar and salt in some water then add to a large pot, place the turkey in and cover with cold water. Let this sit overnight, 12hours usually is good enough. This process with flush out any residual nasties in the meat and add flavor and moisture.





Next step is to dry your bird well. Season the outside with salt and pepper. I like to add an apple and onion to the interior cavity.





Now smoke the turkey, use a mild wood like apple. If you want to use mesquite or Hickory be careful, they impart a very strong flavor.
