Don't do one that is bigger than 12-14 pounds - any bigger and they just don't seem to smoke well.
Brine it for 24 hours before cooking - makes a huge difference in the juiciness of the end product.
Set the turkey out breast up before putting it on the smoker. Put a gallon ziplock of ice on the breast while it is sitting out - helps the whole bird be at the correct doneness at the same time.
Thanks for the advice Gator... and also for all the work you do with the NST, Really makes noobs like me feel at home...
