I have a question. I am cooking for thanksgiving and plan on doing a turkey along with a couple boston butts. From your experience which should I put on the top rack the turkery of the butts ?. I thinking put the bird in the middle. I'm worried about the whole raw poultry thing. Wht do you guys/gals think ?
 
Me. I would put the turkey on top and not worry about a thang. That will be done well before your butts are ready to pull, and whatever drippings will have been cooked till a safe temp.

Though the turkey would benefit from the dripping pork fat and juices. Just as long as the butts get above 160 or so when it's time for the bird to come off.
