About 15 minutes just enough for the turkey to harden and not get all soft.

In my opinion, it's best to keep the turkey "tented" or covered with foil for at least 30 minutes so the juices are allowed to return to the meat so you don't end up with a dry turkey.

What is a good smoked turkey recipe?

There are many recipes for smoked turkey, but all will require a smoker, some wood chips, and of course, a turkey. The most important part is to make sure your smoker is up to the correct temperature before placing the turkey inside. Most smokers should be around 225 degrees Fahrenheit for best results. Once you have your smoker going at the correct temperature, place the wood chips in and let them start smoking. Then place the turkey on the rack breast-side down and cover with the lid. Make sure to keep an eye on the temperature and add more charcoal or wood if needed. The bird is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes before carving.

Is it safe to place a freshly baked turkey in a Hot Cold Thermal Bag for 2 hours to keep it warm and bacteria free while preparing the remaining oven side dishes?

NO. Cook your side dishes first.Cook the Turkey til done. Now you have a pre-heated oven in which to re-heat your side dishes, as the turkey should " rest " 20 min. before carving, and giving you time to make gravy. When the side dishes are heated thru, bake the biscuits for 10-15 min and Voila! everything shold be ready pretty much at the same time. If you have adult helpers, put them to work.
