Turkey is naturally dry. Just like chicken. It's not Greenberg's fault, per se. But it is what it is. I don't do a whole lot of turkey, smoked or otherwise. I do chicken because it pleases the masses, but poultry (cooked any way) is too dry for my liking. Even with chicken I prefer dark meat because of the added moisture. Pretty much the only way I like turkey, is fried, because of how it locks in the moisture and steams within itself. Or cooked in a combi, which nobody cooking at home has access to.
