Half Turkey's make great party food. Just like a spatchcock chicken, they cook quickly and evenly. This 6.5 pound bird smoked in just over 2 hours ant 250. A 24 hour dry brine with just salt works well. I added some New Mexico medium hot hatch chilies and a touch of black pepper a couple of hours before the smoke. This size bird fits nicely in my model 1.
