No matter how many times you've smoked/cooked a turkey it never hurts to do a practice run. I still had a frozen gobbler from last year's holiday season when stores practically give them away to get you in the door. Every year I pick up some 14 lb turkeys to use every 2 -3 months. It's a perfect size for the two of us. For around $14 I can get many meals from that gobbler. Not to mention boiling the carcass for a scrumptious turkey vegetable noodle soup.
Smoked this beauty for 3 hours at 230ºF on my MAK 2 Star using cookinpellets.com Premium Perfect Mix. Increased the pit temp to 325ºF until the internal temp reached 170ºF at the thickest part of the breast. Total cooking time was about 4 1/2 hours but always cook to internal temps. Cooked the bird on a "V" rack inside a large foil pan to catch the drippings for gravy.
