You're in for a treat. Once you fry a turkey, and enjoy the juicy meat sealed inside, you'll never want to roast one again.
It's surprisingly ungreasy.
I've promised this since last year. We are going to also cook one in the oven. This way, after the fried Turkey is is eaten up we'll have leftovers from the other one to send home with others.
I also joke that I'm frying one so that if my wife ruins the oven baked one it won't ruin the day. (ven though hers is really the insurance one).
