bzarcherI was going to tell you about the Turkey we smoked right before the entire world went to Hell on Sunday.
Fortunately, I dressed for success.
Brining it for 24 hours in a mixture of apple juice, spices, honey, worcestershire, salt, and sugar.
Drain, pat dry, and air dry in the fridge for 1 hour.
Apply rub. I used olive oil as the slather this time.
Ready to go!
Spritz with apple juice each hour until about the half way point.
Then, start brushing melted butter onto the bird each hour instead.

Oh, and did I mention the VERY USEFUL drippings which which to make gravy?
Bon appetit. :)
