Question Re: turkey Frying

While I have been around others frying turkeys, I am finally going to attempt it myself this year. My question is this, I already have a crawfish jet burner for spring boils, can a jet burner be used for frying turkey (I am getting a smaller turkey frying pot), or will I need a less intense fryer burner? In my mind you should be able to use the burner valve to dial in the oil temp but haven't attempted that yet.

Yes.
As you said, you can just adjust the flame accordingly with the dial.
I have always used a jet burner.

That is the only burner I have. It works fine.

Was not a question in the OP, but a few tips for your first fried bird...
make sure is not frozen (dont laugh, people have put frozen turkeys into hot oil)
remove the giblets, neck, and packaged stuff from the cavity
use just enough oil to cover the turkey, dont want it to boil over and have a grease fire
lower it into oil slowly.

Get a thermometer and you will be fine.

I always use my jet burner. I also slide the deflector shield thing over the flame. Not sure if that matters though.
