Same here, never go back to a oven baked turkey, this is the best way. Awesome flavor.
Plus a 12 pounder only takes 42min! & your done.

I fried 2 myself. One for us and one for ZebcoWillie, my fishing partner. They turned out great. Thanks Bluffer for the cottonseed oil answer. I used it and I couldn't tell the difference. Saved some money and they were super.
Oh yeah, I gotta tell yall about this one....
The wife made sweet potatoes that were out of this world, slap your momma good!!!!
She peeled & baked the sweet taters the day before and put them in the fridge. Then she took them out a bit before dinner and sliced them. She laid the slices in a baking dish. Then she boiled 1 cup of real maple syrup for 10 minutes. She added 1.5 cups of fresh cranberries to the syrup and boiled it for 5 more minutes. Poured that over the sweet taters and baked for 20 minutes to heat it through & through. OMG.... the best sweet potatoes I have ever eaten. I would add some pecans and more cranberries myself. |

Too much cholesterol and too many left-overs in a whole fried turkey.
Got a 7-lb smoked turkey breast @ Moody's & warmed it in the broiler for Thanksgiving.
Just boiled the bones for stock, added a yellow bell pepper, some home-grown Jananese eggplant, a home-grown banana pepper, half a red onion (other half used earlier for turkey sandwiches), celery, Chinese cabbage, carrots, brown button mushrooms, Tabasco sauce, and a box of Rice River Farms Multi-grain Medley w/seasoning packet. If that doesn't cure the head cold that's coming on, I'll add more Tabasco  .

Wrong, Cottonseed oil (along with peanut) is fat free, even sez so on the box.
left-overs? what left-overs!

Blufffer, my issues aren't with the oils (vegetable oils lack cholesterol), but with how frying versus roasting affects the calories, cholesterol, fat and saturated fat in a whole fried turkey when compared to just the light meat in a roasted one. I'll bet you ate way more than a 3-oz portion simply because you had a whole turkey and couldn't resist the opportunity to eat the dark meat and the crispy fried skin along with the light meat.

Yummmm... Smoked turkey can't be beat. Takes a long time but a combo of mesquite & oak... low and slow. That's good stuff.
TH, I try to watch those calories and such everyday except Thanksgiving & Christmas. Gotta live a little to make life worth living.
