Hi Betty, Traditional turkey dinner side dishes will go well with smoked turkey but I would choose sides that that will compliment and stand up to the smoky flavor of the turkey, like sweet potatoes rather than squash and cornbread stuffing. I think you'll find that ham dinner sides will also go well with smoked turkey. A standard cole slaw with some dried cranberries and walnuts mixed in would be a tasty salad to serve. Also, keep in mind that on holidays family/guests tend to miss their favorite 'traditional' dishes if they aren't served. My best suggestion is even when you're being adventurous with a holiday menu be sure to include at least one or two 'expected' favorites.
