Smoked Turkey Question

I've smoked a few turkeys over the last few years with very good success, but I remember my sister buying a smoked turkey from a butcher a few years back that look just like a ham. When I smoke a turkey, it looks like a turkey, but this one was pink all of the way through and if she wouldn't have told me it was a turkey, I would have sworn it was a ham. What did the butcher do differently than I (we) do?

I'm wondering if is some sort of curing that is done to it? Just guessing.
