Comment on We Didn't Start the Fire (But We Did Read the Book)

I loved the team name when I first heard it get called back then and it still is my favorite team name on the circuit today. The book is a great read even for a seasoned competitor.

The way to your loved one's heart is through arterial cloggery! (ha ha)

Dang, Clint, for someone who is a certifiably excellent bbqr/smoker, you sure know your way around the fryer!

In the raw ingredients pic, is the closest item an artichoke heart?

How would I cook this in the oven, or would you not recommend it?

Fried beets....I think Clint has gone off the deep end (ha ha).

Actually, I'd try them now that I've read about them and seen yours. But I'm pretty sure I made a face reading that beets were your guest of honor for TGIF.

This kind of dish could foster world peace. I mean, who wants to fight when you could be eating pancake battered, deep fried cinnamon apple turnover with maple bacon and raspberry syrup reduction instead?

Awesome dish, Clint. Did it taste as great as it looks?

That picture is making me rethink my ambivalence towards turkey! My wife would approve as you get your meat AND veggies in one serving!

Comment on TGI Fryday: Deep Fried Turkey

It actually has a pretty good filter on it. There was a lot of steam for no heavy deep fried smell, especially when compared to a little fry daddy type deep fryer.

I've had my eye on those. The thing I don't like about frying inside is the lingering smell afterward. Was this unit any worse or better in that regard than regular frying?

While I have a nice panini press, I love your idea of doing these on the grill like that.
