    i like peanut oil!!

    and bonus!! you would be doing yourself a disservice if you didnt have 1-2 bags of frozen, crinkle cut, french fries ready to pour in once you yank out the bird. hot, salty fries, perfumed by turkey..damn.

    salt the fries the second you pull them from the hot oil.

    Nice suggestions, I may have to get some to try. I know my brother and his wife like sweet potato fries so I'm sure it would be the same way

    walmart has the peanut oil 3 gallon for $29 and Sam's has the peanut oil blend(peanut and soybean) 3 gallon for $24. Is it worth the $5 savings or just buy the 100% peanut oil from wally world?

    Got the peanut oil today and turkey is about thawed. Gonna hopefully fry it tomorrow BUT, the wind is supposed to be like 15-25 mph. Is this TOO windy? I was thinking about trying to get behind something to cut the wind down. I wonder if it would be ok to get beside the firewood stack to block some of the wind

    You will be surprised how powerful the flame is. It sounds like a jet engine when it is turned up. The wind doesn't bother mine
