I like smoked turkey, but only fresh and at that moment it comes off. A day later, meh.

On the rare occasion that I'll do a whole turkey, I just use a weber kettle w/ the weber indirect cook charcoal baskets (or just pile the charcoal on two sides) with Lazzari mesquite charcoal (or KF and smoke wood) and bird rubbed down with spices then packed, and I mean seriously packed, with rosemary and other aromatics.

Best of both worlds to me - the indirect grilling is more like an oven roast for the skin and meat texture and the mesquite charcoal or smoke wood adds a smokey flavor.
