We've been frying a turkey every year for a long time. Usually my brother in law fries one and does another in the smoker. No injuries so far, and only one fire (the window has been replaced and everything is fine now, thanks for asking).

I've tried doing a turkey in the charcoal kettle (Weber Performer) a couple of times but each time I try something bad (and unrelated) seems to happen to a family member so the cook gets interrupted. I have a spare turkey sitting in the freezer waiting for another attempt.
