Put a 20 lb bird in at 1:00. Kept the smoker temp at approx. 325-350 the whole time. Hit the 140 mark at just under 3.5 hrs. It finished up at about 5.5 hrs. I did this bird naked, no rub, brine or anything. Came out tasty, juicy, and the wife loved it. I smoked it with hickory the entire time, the skin was crispy and delicious. I also used chef Jimmy's recipe for some awesome turkey gravy. Enjoy the q-view.

Great looking bird! Hey if you are still making those brownie points with the bride..... I say cook another for the 4th, keep those brownie points rolling in~!  You can never have enough brownie points!

I just had Turkey gumbo for dinner and my mouth is still watering now looking at yours!

Job well done

Thanks guys, I don't know what took me so long to finally put a big bird in that thing. I've had many chickens go through it and they always come out great.
