Never understood cooking turkey in oil when it is so easy to just
roast it in a pan in the oven, and avoid the grease and oil.

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.

Well, as I said, I don't understand boiling a turkey in oil.

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.
