Turkey questions

That (flat-chested) turkey looks awsome!!!
I guess you didn't have a LEMON handy?

How long did it take to come out looking that good?

I think it took around 9 or 10 hours, give or take.  The skin was really tough so next time I'll definitely pull it from the smoker earlier and blast it in the oven longer.  Either that or cook it at higher temps the entire time.  Either way, the meat was juicy (too juicy according to my father who likes his meat the texture of sandpaper apparently) and delicious.  I'm looking forward to the thanksgiving bird with a few tweaks.  Special thanks to KevinG for the advice and brine recipe.

Glad it worked out for you.
