I'll put in a small note - turkey done on a grill does get a nice smoky flavor, but it isn't (in my humble opinion) equivalent to "smoked turkey". On the grill, while your heat is indirect, the thing is still really hot.
Yes.
With wood chips, you can get a smoky-ish flavor, but it only really sticks to the skin. The turkey meat itself is really no different than roast turkey.
I've had properly smoked turkey, and it's something altogether different... And quite delicious.
The big advantage to grilling it, for us, is that it frees up the entire oven in the kitchen for cooking other dishes. Our kitchen, and our oven, is kind of small, so that alone makes a big difference in convenience.
