You've had luck with edible skin? I've been doing a Turkey every Thanksgiving for about 5 years but haven't had a skin that I wanted to eat yet. The skin looks great, just not something that I've wanted to eat. Maybe I should be shooting for a higher temp like 350? I normally smoke around 325 but screwed up and didn't let my smoker get up to temp before putting on the bird.
