    Oil at 350*.  Make sure completely thawed and seasoned/injected.  Use hot mit/welding gloves.  Turn off fire when lowering bird into pot.  Light fire again.  Cook 3.5 min/#.


    Exactly as I do it. 

    Set it up on bare ground or grass if you can as the oil may splatter and stain interlock stones. I also, set it up away from where people are gathering and kids are playing.

    Weber Genesis CP310; Weber Q1200 (camping); LBGE.

    It turned out great! Compliments from everyone that had some that it was the best turkey they've had. I was amazed how the juices flowed when cutting the white meat. 

    Thanks everyone! I'm the appointed turkey maker now.

    By the time I got it out of the fryer, let it rest for a bit, it was already carved up with people picking at it! I'm telling you, it was a huge hit considering no one here had ever had a turkey cooked that way including me. 

    Next time for sure! Thanks again for the guidance guys!!
