I've had and have cooked different smoked turkeys, ducks and geese along with deep fried ones and all... this is by far the easiest most simple and cleanest way to cook and made the juiciest one of them all. Easy to set up and easy to clean up. Make sure you season the pan and rack as well as rub a little oil on the turkey to apply any dry rubs itll save you a ton of time. This thing cooks fast, even and amazing... will forever add this to the rotation of smoked meats and fried birds on get together and holidays.
