just saw it in one of my catalogs thought i would share the info
 
I agree with wild. That is not a great price. You can pick them up a lot less (maybe not 10 bucks like wild's) at Walmart, Target..etc. Look for them on sale at these places. Also, 55,000 btu is awefully small.

I bought my Stainless Steel fryer from Academy Sports. It's 36 quarts and SS everything including the burner. I paid around 65$ for it.
 
So is everyone in agreement that the turkey frying kit is a pretty good all-grain kit? Because if it is, that's the route I'm thinking of going. I'm trying to talk my buddy into the home-brew realm since he's a beerficionado like ourselves who has a creative flair for cooking and recently purchased a house. If we're all in agreement, it seems like a VERY economical route to take. I bought my 22qt stainless steel pot for $50.00ish
 
Trying to find a decent turkey fryer to use my 7.5Gal kettle on to utilize a full boil. Any advice on this item: Turkey Fryer ?

The 35$ fryer's description is:
The Eastman® Revolution™ high-output, 65,000 BTU propane burner can easily be used for camping, tailgating or in the backyard with a compact and powerful design. It's constructed with a clean-burning cast element and a heavy-duty, high-pressure hose and regulator.

Is the BTU too low? Can't find anything locally on the inexpensive side (including Wal-Mart's site).

Yep. That's the only reason I bought one. It'll never see a turkey (other than the one doing the brewing!).
