Awesome Fryer

Length of ownership:6 months
We have had our fryer for 5 years. We cook 2 Turkey every year in it and do small chickens, pork loins and many other meats. It is a lot healthier then frying and would highly recommend for anyone that wants a juicy Turkey. The fact it free my oven up for other items that need to be cooked is a plus!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this item because I was tired of buying peanut oil for frying turkeys. This unit has not disappointed. Follow the directions and you won't have any issues.
I also bought the accessories and the cover.
3rd year of moderate use and still looks and works like new.

BEST TURKEY SO FAR

Easy to assemble.
I must say that I was worried when I first dropped the bird in there.
I kept checking on it , but then I left it alone and when I returned It was a thing of beauty. I am the Deep Fried Turkey KING in my area. Today I sit the peanut oil to the side and NO OIL FRIED is officially my new method!!!
Cut into the bird and the juices just ran ...... tasted it ......... and BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE ! I'm in love !!!!!

Great Job Char-Broil! Awesome product!

Had it for three days. Assembly was simple and very quick. Cooked three turkeys and one chicken....All I can say is WOW! I used olive oil and creole seasoning on all, and they ALL turned out AWESOME! Can't wait to experiment with different things, but have stuck to the recipes in the book (except olive oil), and all have been juicy, tender and even the skin tastes great. I am impressed! I did buy the Char-Broil Remote Thermostat as well to keep an eye on it while I cooked everything else, and it worked flawlessly as well. Now, I find myself scanning the grocery store ads, so I can find different meat to try in this. Single father of a teenage girl, and it will help prepare meat we can eat for a couple-few days with different sides. Will save money over the long haul for sure! Not just on peanut oil for a fryer. All in all....SO much simpler, and WAY safer than a conventional turkey fryer. Again....WOW! Well done Char-Broil!

wonderful!

I've used the Big Easy for 4 extended family meals including Thanksgiving and Christmas and EVERYONE has loved the results. I read another review from someone not so happy and felt compelled to say that with any new cooking style, you have to sort things out! This is worth working with as the succulent results are wonderful. First of all, the suggested cooking times are too short. When you add wind and cold temps, add a bunch more, but the results are still excellent. This is why after the first time when it was windy, I put on our covered porch which has much less wind.
I usually brined the bird before which seems to work better. Did not brine it today, but it was still excellent.
Reading the other post and response, I learn that you should only put the screen on top at the end to brown, but I have always kept it on for the whole time and when brined, the skin is a very nice medium dark brown and perfectly crispy.
Use a meat thermometer and take it out between 155 and 160.
I'll never use the oven again!

Best Thanksgiving ever!

The reviews sold me. But the results exceeded my expectations. Lightly brushed with peanut oil and rubbed it with a blend of sea salt, fresh cracked black pepper, and garlic. I'll never cook my bird any other way again. Only complaint...product needs to be packaged better. Mine arrived days before thanksgiving damaged. No time for a replacement, so I disassembled it and banged out the dent and hit it with some paint.

Worry free turkey cooking

I have bought two of these. This is by far the easiest and mess free turkey cooking. The turkey comes out golden crisp on the skin and deliciously moist on the inside and it makes me a hero with my friends and family on Thanksgiving day. I bring it out once a year and now turkey cooking is stress free and a breeze. Would certainly recommend especially for occasional cooks.
