Picking up my Turkey Fryer tonight! - Page 2

I picked up my fryer last night, BTW. It's a Cookmaster 30/10. I assume the 30 refers to the 30 quart pot, not so sure about the 10. (10,000 BTU maybe? I was hoping it was more powerful than that). I wasn't able to find much info on this brand, or model. Like I said, it's almost 10 years old. But I did recognize the Wal-Mart inventory tag (I used to work there) with a date of 10/21/01 and a price of $99.
edit: Some of the parts are labeled "Masterbuilt"

You can definitely steep the grains in the pot on the turkey fryer. Get the water up to temperature, turn off the burner, add the grains. If it loses 1-2 deg F during the steeping time, it is not a big deal. If you want, you can throw a blanket, sleeping bag, or towel over the pot to give it some additional insulation.

Heck, I do full-volume, no-sparge BIAB and mash with my turkey fryer and an old surplus US Army blanket.
