Turkey deep fryer is an excellent choice. Infra-red turkey cooker just sounds like a nuke-powered microwave.

All it dose is radiate the heat around the food.

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but isn't "infrared" synonymous with "heat?"

Do post your results.  I am hosting Tday this year and doing two deep fried turkeys, dry rub, with an injection.  Did a trial run the other day and thought it was the best I've ever tasted.

Been doing alot of reading on the dry rub.  Anyone have an opinion on the best dry rub to make?



Use Emeril Lagassi's Memphis Dry rub recipe...google it.

Can you really use a dry rub when you deep fry a turkey?  I mean doesn't the rub just come right off in the oil?

THANK YOU!

Lately this has been showing up all over, with one infomercial I saw saying, "First there was microwave...now there is INFRA-RED"!!! I barely restrained myself from a high volume rant when that one started!

Well it's not just heat, it cooks thing much faster then a standard oven, it's the way it moves the heat around the food.  The infra-red turkey fryer I bought cooks the turkey in the same amount of time as deep frying it in oil, something like around an hour for a standard size turkey, apposed to a couple hours in an oven.

My guess the reason for that would be that it's a smaller vessel with the reflective surfaces closer.

Yep...essentially a very small, reflective, and intense oven.

I guess I'm too set im my ways.  The wife does the traditional oven bird--I do mine over charcoal in the Weber....my procedure as well as "Anti-Turkey" stuffing recipe are on past Thanksgiving forums.
