I have never done the full weave but for the past 4 years I have put bacon on the bird. I spatchcock it, skin it (yes, I said skin it) all but the wings and then apply rub, cover with strips of bacon on breast and thighs/legs, more rub on the bacon (light coating) and into the smoker it goes. Did a side by side taste test with a turkey done with skin on and not spatchcocked and the one without the skin was the winner.
