: Hi Larry..

: My sentiments exactly. Won't have to eat for 3 or 4 days now....
: Deep Frying is all the rage out this way... ( Mid-Calif )
: It's out of this world, quick and doesn't really use that much oil of you do
: it right.

Here, too.. I've done 6. This past one was the best by far. Usually, we've cooked them at 350*F for 55 minutes (20 lb. bird). They got too overcooked on the outside. This one got 275-290 for 1.5 hrs....yum! Cool the oil, dump it back in the jug, and reuse it next time.

:My little brother has done it, but I'm into smokin' the sucker
: as you did. Butter/Honey basting over a lower ( wet-hickery ) fire. We've
: done a few of the beer/butt chicken's so I'm sure that was delicious.

: Wishing you and all a wonderful day and rapid recovery!!
