Specifically designed for frying whole turkeys, this 30-quart outdoor stockpot circulates oil for even cooking temperatures and tender, juicy meats. The kit includes a 12-inch stainless-steel, deep-fry thermometer for consistent temperatures. A perforated poultry rack with a grab hook makes it easy to safely insert and remove turkey. A gas burner with cast-iron reversible grate provides exceptional cooking performance, while solid legs ensure optimal stability. Constructed from commercial-grade aluminum and cast iron, the fryer kit offers commercial-grade cooking performance with lightweight portability. The tall, narrow design consumes less cooking oil than standard stockpots. Perfect for camping, RVs, tailgating, backyard cooking, or for simplifying Thanksgiving, the kit also includes a 10-PSI regulator, a vented lid, and a 1-ounce seasoning injector. The pot measures stands 18-1/2 inches tall and 14-1/2 inches wide, and is heated by a 16-inch burner. --Brian Olson

Dunno about turkey, but it sure heats up November 18, 2009

I haven't fried a turkey in this (yet!) but I did use it for brewing beer - I needed a big pot and a hefty outdoor burner to bring 6 gallons of beer to a boil. This brought it to a boil in about 20 minutes, when my stovetop (if it could even have done it at all) would take hours. This would've gotten five stars except for two things: the pot itself is a bit flimsy (though I don't much care if it has some small dents, as long as it holds water) and the paint on the burner burns off the first time you use it - it smells terrible, but doesn't really affect anything else. I've used it again since the first time, and there was no more terrible smell, so it's just a one-time thing. Seems silly to paint it if it's just going to burn off, though.
If I decide to fry a turkey, I'll come back and update this review. 'Til then, it's definitely a cheap way to bring a whole bunch of liquid to a boil.

No one who has children, pets, or family/friends who has ever had an awkward moment should use any turkey fryer [...]
Here's what the Underwriter's Laboratory has to say about turkey fryers: ""The numbers (for turkey-fryer fires) are not going down but going up," said Barbara Guthrie, the director of consumer affairs at Underwriters. "At present, we do not believe that there are any sufficient standards that address the safety concerns."
Guthrie said those concerns begin with 5 gallons of scalding 700-degree grease precariously perched over an open flame. And many fryers are unstable -- especially the tripod models -- which leads to a high incidence of tipping.
When the oil meets the fire, Guthrie said, the fryers instantly become a "vertical flame thrower."
The Underwriters Web site features a video of a turkey fryer filled with hot oil that overflows. When the grease hits the flame, the fryer turns into a volcano of smoke and fire in just seconds.
"We don't believe the taste is worth risking your home, your life or the life of your children," said Guthrie."
Can you, your child or pet survive a close encounter with several gallons of 700* oil? Ask a local fireman or EMT for their recommendation--

As another poster mentioned, the paint doesn't last past the first use of this product. What he didn't go into, however, is that this paint is apparently flammable. On my second use of the burner I had the gas flowing at about 90%, left to go inside to grab something to drink, came back outside and the entire unit was in flames. If you are going to buy this burner, make sure you keep a very very VERY close eye on it until the paint burns (not melts, burns) off. I'd even advise trying to scrape the paint off as a precautionary measure.
Other than that, the pot and accessories served their purposes well. Just wish that if the paint was going to burn off from the get-go that they'd just sent one without any paint on it at all.
 TURKEY FRYER FOR HOME BREWING NEEDS, GREAT BUY February 11, 2009

I purchased this turkey fryer kit with home brewing on the mind. I am a novice home brewer and this kit allowed for me and the fellow members of the Rat Bastard Brew Club to venture outdoors to brew beer, instead of in the cramped kitchen. This product allowed us to do a full five gallon boil, which provides you with a better product than a 3 gallon partial boil on the stove. I am pleased with this product and the quality of the kit in general, I would recommend this to anyone who has home brewing on the mind.

The paint burnt off of the burner frame at first use but does not affect performance. The set did not include a wrench necessary for assembly which was inconvenient. The pot was dented but again performance is not affected. The instructions were accurate and clear. The bird cooked as described and was excellent. The set is versatile but uses A LOT of oil. Straining the oil after use for storage is a nuisance. It would help if the pot had a pour spout and came with a wide-mouthed funnel. Having read prior reviews, I wasn't surprised by the product upon receipt. If quality is a must, then shop for another brand.
