Smoked Turkey on a WSM

Two small turkeys smoked on a Weber Smokey Mountain at 230°F with hickory. Smaller birds mean faster cook times, better skin-to-meat ratio, and four drumsticks instead of two. Frees up the oven for all the holiday sides.

• 2 whole turkeys (about 12 lbs each)
• BBQ seasoning/rub
• Hickory wood chunks
