Yes, if you use a 1 qt pot, it will be more than enough shellfish
for
all of your friends. Now based upon the size of those fat stubby
fingers, you could eat the all the shellfish in a 60qt pot, but
it would
be better for your health if you didn't.

Can you believe that someone is so stupid that they can't find a
propane burner for themselves?

Probably cost as much to rent as to buy. Since I use mine mostly
for crabs, I have a 90 qt. Model. Was about $60 bucks years
ago. I still fry a turkey at times. Very moist and no grease.


Yeah, but do I really want another apparatus in the garage?


Don't you have a 2000 sq foot garage?

What happened to his big red barn?

It was going to fall over. That was the story, anyway.

I see. So he hired the Amish boys to hold it together with a fresh coat
of paint. There is, by the way, a big red barn in his neighborhood but
it's in someone elses side yard.

Of course. I'm not surprised.

Easily found new at Wal-Mart. Now try to find a gasoline [naptha]

Just how much oil does it take? How many dollars worth? And how long
does it keep? How much for a freezer to hold the oil at 0 F. between
uses. I think you could easily end up buying new oil for every turkey.
I have a radio remote oven thermometer that sits by the keyboard, or
the beer, as the case may be. If I want grease, I will go to the
restaurant down the street and have onion rings. We bought a set up,
tank, burner, and kettle, and it has the cooking instructions for
frying a turkey stamped into it. Of course, we bought it for mashed
potatoes and lobstercide. Anyone dumb enough to oil a turkey needs the
instructions right on the gear.

Problem has already been solved, had enough. What the el is a naptha stove?

Naptha is a mixture of hydrocarbons with a certain range of boiling
points. Included is gasoline. White gas, or coleman fuel, same thing,
is cheap low octane gasoline, without any additives or dye. Can of
cigarette lighter fluid says naptha right on it.

Be thankful for that. It's pretty dangerous.

The burners they were selling with the turkey cooker setups are what
you want. Watch the garage sales and craigslist. These things show up
real cheap now and then. I suspect a lot were thrown away when the
"boil your turkey in oil" craze faded.
There's an idea. I'd only use it a couple times a year. I have a smaller
"indoor" crab and lobster steamer that's fine for the stovetop, although
the smell of shellfish cooking drives the cats crazy. If I had an
outdoor cooker, I could leave the smell from the shellfish...outdoors..

Not to worry; none of them are invited. I've been considering renting a
yard tent this year, what with all the damned rain.

It's always good to have a yard tent at a seafood tent party.

Of course it is nice. Especially the type of party that Herr Krause
would host for his invited friends, such as the House fool Robert
Gibbs, the lying Pelosi, and the PMS infested *SENATOR* Boxer.

Neither blazing sun or torrents of rain should foul this gala event.

There are many things you don't understand, WAFA. I would let this one
go and focus on more important things - like why, at your age, don't own
a house.
