Whole Chicken, seasoned and stuffed with a can of beer. Should take about 2-3 hours.

Sausage can also be done in that time, but I would do a chicken first. Sausage should be served with something else...no wait a minute...sausage is just fine on its own. Heck, your call!

My family really enjoys smoked pork chops. I simply rub them, smoke them until they hit 170 (about 2 hours) and serve them with sauce on the side. Easy and good!!

I would do a pork loin they only take about 3 hours.Rub it down smoke between 250-275 and pull at 160.

All of these are great suggestions. Are you going to split the turkey in 1/2 or 1/4 ?

If it's not too late, try some babybacks. Can't go wrong with ribs.

Try smoking the breast, they are big enough to feed 4 ro 5 with some left overs and should fit your time frame.

sorry

What a great thread! Quick Smokes!

Can't go wrong with the chicken thing. I smoked two on Sunday and they are in the fridge now. Had some cubed up on a cob salad last night.
