 OUTSTANDING!!!!!!! December 24, 2007
P. Sorrells
Fantastic product! I have used it twice already and am going to fry another turkey on Christmas. Good Quality, great price, tons of extras. The only thing I regret is not buying a pot with the drain spigot in the bottom ( the pot gets a little heavy when pouring the oil back into the jug!). Other than that A+ all the way around.

I purchased this because I wanted to try and fry a Turkey for Thanksgiving. The day before I put it all together. It was so easy to use and came with all the gadgets I needed. We fried the Turkey and I received so many compliments. No problems, No accidents, Just a great, user-friendly fryer, especially for beginners!

Received the turkey fryer and it was missing the chicken skewers and spice packet listed in the Amazon description. Amazon quickly shipped a replacement which was missing the same items. I expect to receive the product as described and this doesn't so I returned both fryers. Tried to rate this at zero stars but that wasn't an option.

I bought this same brand three years ago and six deep fried turkeys later, I'm still a happy camper. I would recommend bringing the oil to 250 then turning off the burner before lowering the turkey in. Once the bird is safely in bounds, I would crank it up back to about 325 for about 3 1/2 minutes per pound. I tried 350 but my bird comes out a little too burn on the wings and cavity edges that way.
Mine did not come with that the awesome fry basket, extra pots, and injector by the way yet I still paid the same price.

When I first heard about frying turkeys, I just new I'd try it eventually and this fryer has everything I needed (minus the turkey, oil & fuel) to get started. My cooker arrived right on time in perfect condition and went together without a hitch.
I fried up some chickens so I'd have some frying practice before T-day rolled around and learned a few tips:
The meat should be at nearly room temp before cooking. I took my bird out of the fridge the night before and put it in a cooler with no ice so it was cool but not cold. Also, the oil temp. should be right at the red-line before putting the meat in. If your bird is still cold from the fridge or if the oil is not hot enough, the oil temp will plunge to below 300 and it will take most of the listed cook time to get back to 350. Then you'll be guessing at to whether your meat is done.
When I put the Thanksgiving turkey in, I hung the neck around one of the legs and after about ten minutes, I fished it out with a pair of tongs and had a perfectly cooked snack while tending the fryer. At the end of the calculated cook time, I pulled the bird out and checked the breast with my electronic meat thermometer rather than the oil thermometer, perfect. If you think your meat is not quite done, you are better off finishing up in the oven rather than going back in the fryer, you don't want to overcook.
Since this was my first time out, I wanted to make sure I had a back-up plan so we wouldn't wind up feasting on cranberry salad and frozen pizzas. I told the in-laws to go ahead and cook their regular bird in case mine didn't turn out and they had the usual monster bird with the breast meat like drywall. The birds went to the table side by side and my 13 pounder was gone, picked clean and the little kids were asking was there any more turkey while the oven bird was still hardly touched (hee hee.) It was a smash.
More tips: I had a friend pick up a jug of peanut oil at the wholesale club and that was just a bit more oil than I needed for a 13 lb bird. I poured the unused oil off into some clean quart jugs so I could use the original 4.5 gallon jug to dispose of the dirty oil.
If you enjoy grilling, you will enjoy cooking with this fryer. It extends the summertime joy of getting outside with a refreshing beverage into autumn.
