You ever consider opening a restaurant? Sounds like you'd be a natural.8 pound turkey smoked over apple, cherry, touch of mesquite

13 1/2 lb turkey roasted in the oven

On both, the white meat was lusciously juicy, the dark meat moist and incredibly flavorful.
The one cooked over the wood fire had a nice smoke ring and amazing flavor. Neither turkey was brined or stuffed, but both were internally basted with rosemary/thyme butter under the breast skin.
Lots of juice in both...and tons of leftovers.
