turkey fryer heat treating

[seider]

I know someone has tryed this and was wondering how much sand did you put in the bottom and how much over your spalls.  Have not tryed it yet but thinking about it.  My only concern is the use of the propain in the bottles and how long it will last.

Frying pot? It may not heat evenly. Just get ya an electric turkey roaster. Works great , lots of guys use them .

Have used it a couple of times

That is about as helpfull as a smack upside the head. (And if I could reach through the monitor, I would oblige you )

Try to find one that goes to 500 deg. Mine is 450 deg & it works great.

Thanks Tower!
You fill with sand like I have read?

[Bevan R.]

I might be making this up, but I seem to remember seeing vermiculite used instead of sand.

[Tower]

I use sand. But I've read that some folks don't. It may not matter much , but I think it helps in heating & cooling evenly.

Thanks, appreciate the info.

Gus , that's it! Had to go from in the ground to a roaster with the move.
