We have baked, fried and smoked ours over the years. Our favorite is smoked and it's the easiest too.

Fried is good... but you just can't beat a good smoked Turkey...I do one for Thanksgiveing and one for Christmass.. along with my world famouse smoked ham of course.... talk about meat candy!
On the Weber---indirect heat---applewood chips added.......Now that's a good turkey!
neither way cooked tastes good to me. turkey has an odd taste to it imo. give me a rare standing rib roast or a honey baked ham. if turkey were that good people would fix it year round like chicken.
I like my turkey smoked on my Traeger grill. Nothing beats a turkey smoked over apple wood! Mmmmmm!

My wife couldn't find a Perdue turkey this year and bought a Butterball. It sure seemed to shrink a lot when deep frying it. Thinking that the turkey is pumped up with a lot of water that evaporated while frying.
I cooked on in the fryer this thanksgiving and it was delicious.
I've enjoyed the ones I smoked. If someone else is doing the work, I'll eat the way they fix it.
That's the same way we do ours. I have only had it deep fried once and I must say. I was very good.Quote:
