I hope this is in the right forum. I couldn't find anywhere else that seemed appropriate.
After many, many years of frying turkeys using a propane burner and gallons and gallons of oil, I'm thinking of making the switch. The oil is a pain and expensive too. But I've heard mixed reviews on the oil-less fryers. I use a heavy rub on my birds and love the crispy skin the oil creates. Will I still be able to get the same results? I'm just scared to drop the cash for one and then be disappointed. I'd love to hear some honest opinions on them. Also, how long does the process take? For example, in oil I usually fry at 350* for about 3.5 mins per pound. How does this compare to the oil-less fryers? Thanks everyone, have a safe and happy Thanksgiving.
