I will be using the Charbroil turkey fryer for the first time this year. Saving some room in my oven and dont want to buy oil to fry just one 10 pound turkey.
How long do you cook it for?
Have any of y'all used a rub since its not going in oil?
TIA

I use a rub and microwave it for 12 per pound. From there it goes in the oven to crisp up the skin for 15 minutes.

Comes out perfect every time.

Isn't it like 10 - 15 min/lb. Father in law cooks it that way and I think that's what he told me

I'd also use a rub and inject it a little melted butter. I'm not a fan of the injection mixes

I use it every year. You need to spray the basket with Pam or rub it with a little oil so the Turkey doesn't stick too bad.
You can rub the turkey with olive oil to give it more of a crispy skin. Season it however you would a normal turkey. I use Tony's all over it and try to thrown some it the cavity and inject it. I believe it says 10 minutes per pound in the book, but wind and temperature affect this some. Use your thermometer that comes with and just let it do its thing. The heat shield screen does a good job at getting the Turkey brown and crispy also, although not necessary. Make sure you have the foil pan in the tray under the hole or you will be cleaning more than you need to. It's pretty much a set it and forget it process.

Small flame but it cooks it. Damn near blew myself up this morning lighting it! First ignition didn't light it I should've turned off the propane and done it it again. LOL.

I've had issues before with a really low flame. Lower than normal. Make sure the knob is in an off position when you turn your propane bottle on. Then turn on propane, then turn on fryer. Light it and it should be good to go
