I usually go with 15-18 min per pound (in the oven). You can adjust that to include the low temp smoke at first....might be an idea to cold smoke the bird first...for say 3 hours...then finish it at 350 in the house and take it's temp about an hour/or less in the oven...it will give you an idea as to where the bird is on temp and...(as you know) the bird can sit for quite some time tented in case it gets done a little early. I usually find that it does get done earlier then we expect. A 10 pounder should takes about 2-2.5 hours at 350 (then add on rest cooking) ...so you can give it some nice smoke first and then go to the oven? Just a thought.

I do agree with everyones help and I thinks some ideas put togeter with Nepas will work fine. All I want is smoky turkey and crispy skin.
Thanks one and all.
