Any thoughts? I've only used the charcoal smoker once before so it should be interesting.

Never made pastrami with turkey myself, but if there is only one guy out there who can trust for a smoker recipe it's Steve Raichlen:

I'm not sure how dark meat pastrami would come out. Could be great. Could be greasy meh.

Something else to keep in mind is that dark meat is done at 180 while breasts are 165.

Good luck.
