I've heard that they work good but the skin isn't quite as good as fried but that was the only complaint that I had heard. Overall they said it was good

I don't have one either but post your questions so we can all learn, maybe someone will come a long that can answer them.

I'm very curious about the big easy oil less fryer myself. I have heard nothing but positive comments about it.

I have a small Coonazz microwave for Turkeys and Chickens. That thing cooks the bestest bird, with no oil.
Crispy skin, moist meat. Just gotta season and inject it right.

It does good with pork also, but to me, not so good with beef.

Let us know how it turns out bro. I'm thinking about hobbling out on the back patio tomorrow and smoke up something. I had knee surgery Thursday, (torn ACL) so I'm laid up and about to go crazy in this house.

Take some pics for me Bob....

Im glad they came out good. You said you had to season it first? Are you talking about the cooker? If so, how? I was told the first thing you cook in one might not come out that good because it has to be seasoned, that's why I asked.

wipe down the inner liner w/ cooking oil . Turn the gas bottle on and then turn on the fryer in that order. hit the igniter. let it burn for 20 min and the inside of the liner will turn brown to black just like seasoning a cast iron pot . i did mine twice before cooking in it.

The one i did thanksgiving day at soupbones didn't come out to good . I put the thermo leads in the wrong spot and they said done and the bird was still raw every where but the breast,
I was so dam mad, I came home and thawed out another turkey and seasoned it up and cooked it fri. The second bird came out great.
The cooker is great and does a great job when the cook does what he / she is supposed to do.

I seasoned mine Wednesday and cooked a turkey breast on it Thursday (Thanksgiving morning). It was the best turkey I or anybody else that ate had ever eaten. It was juicy and had a golden crust. Not as thick as a fried but much juicier. I love mine. Going to try other meats ASAP. I seasoned mine by coating the inner liner with cooking oil and heating in cooker until it quit smoking.

I cooked the family turkey in my infrared cooker(oil less fryer) for the first time Thanksgiving day. Cooked it 10 minutes per pound. It was a 12 pd. bird. That was a great tasting bird. The meat was juicy and tender. No one at the table complained and when the eatin' was finished all that was left was the bones.
