The exact recipe that Disney's suppliers use is not available. The below recipes are very close.

SMOKED TURKEY

1 cup tender quick salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
5 tsp. liquid smoke
1 gallon water (or amount to cover pieces)
1 turkey, chicken or turkey legs

Add all together and keep in covered container in refrigerator. Let stand for 24 hours.

When ready to roast, rinse off turkey and roast 2 hours at 350 degrees (whole bird) and then lower oven to 300 degrees until turkey is done. Turkey legs, pork chops, steaks and roasts can also be used this way. Adjust roast times for different cuts.

NOTE: These would also be delicious made in a smoker or slowly grilled over indirect heat.
