Maybe it's good, but deep fried turkey sounds pretty gross...

Its good, it cooks rapidly, and has no more unhealthy aspects than a roasted turkey. (We eat too much, its unhealthy.)

It is a serious fire hazard, and people don't usually anticipate the thing tipping over or off the table. As a safety engineer, I would have so many safeguards against tipping, and shut off valves well away from the unit that it would cost a lot more than the cheap units that are for sale everywhere. Moral, pay attention to cooking if you do this option.

You should see what people here will eat deep-fried. At chippies in Scotland and northern England, they'll deep-fry anything you bring them. Some chippies (fish and chip shops) actually have deep-fried, battered hard-boiled eggs on the menu...deep-fried ice cream, deep-fried candy bars, and deep-fried slices of pizza. They deep-fry it in the same fat they use to deep-fry battered fish. Some people will eat anything.

YUCK.

Deep fried turkey beats any other method of turkey cooking in the world!

P.S. I did not get the belly I have from eating at fast food places...
