Step 1
Preheat the smoker to 250 degrees F. Load the smoker with apple wood.
Step 2
Coat a large disposable aluminum pan with cooking spray. Place the turkey in the pan and tuck the wings under the body.
Step 3
Stuff the cavity of the turkey with the onion, lemon and herbs, then use kitchen twine to tie the legs together.
Step 4
Sprinkle the BBQ rub all over the surface of the turkey.
Step 5
Place the turkey in the smoker. Cook for 6-7 hours, basting with chicken broth every 30-45 minutes, until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165 degrees F. Refill the wood chips as needed.
Step 6
If the turkey starts to get too dark, cover it with foil.
Step 7
Let the turkey rest for 10-15 minutes then transfer to a serving plate. Garnish with herbs if desired, then serve.
