You know what Jerry? Its two different flavors. Oven and fried. I like both. But fried is our favorite.

I tried cold smoke and then fried once, couldn't even taste the smoke.

Maybe hot smoke then fry the next one.

I was wondering if that bird ever got finished!

Looks perfect! With a fried bird, most of the skin disappears while I'm carving! It just seems to melt away when no one is looking! :drool

Cook snacks!

Turkey fryers can be used for lots of things other than birds. I sold my wife when I told her that I could do authentic barbacoa outside if I bought one! She agreed!

Crap, I forgot about this thread.

Thanks everyone and for the points.

I actually would rather have fried over smoked
