I'll say this, when you have a moist and juicy deep fried turkey, you'll never want a dry baked one again. Plus, it takes all day to cook a turkey in an oven versus 45 minutes in the deep fryer.

I highly recommend trying it.
oh... sorry, apparently I can't read. I would still smell it just to make sure, but it should be fine.

Frying sounds interesting. Is there a temp you fry at? I am worried that it will be too greasy on the outside as I like the skin.

As for dry baked turkey... the trick is brining (salt and spice soak) the turkey (or any large bird) for at least 8 hrs but no more than 24 hrs. Then use a leave in thermometer and set it to 160 F... not 180F that everyone says. Carry over heat will cook the turkey the rest of the way. We just pop it into the oven and leave it until the alarm on the thermometer goes off. I have never made a dry turkey.
