There like a Cash-and-Carry near you? That is where I found the best price on peanut oil when I did some turkey deep-frying. Sometimes the big chain hardware stores will carry some and put it on sale around Thanksgiving as well.
As delicious as deep-fried turkey is, I don't think it is worth the expense and hassle of dealing with the oil. I've gotten nearly equal results from my infrared cooker, both in flavor and cook time.

You've done a turkey in it? I've only done a whole chicken, and I thought it was a tad dry. I've had to play around a lot with the temp, but I love that thing. Can't believe I'm saying that about a gas grill.

Yes, I've done 2 now and they were very juicy. I don't rember what burner settings I used but I think it was straight from the booklet the cooker came with. Tricky part for me was keeping the skin from burning. Combination of strategic use of foil and keeping the lid open after a certain point helped.
Who here plays with curry a bit?
I used to enjoy it quite a bit when I was over in Okinawa.
Chicken or pork that is breaded and placed on some white rice and some curry sauce poured over it. I like it fairly mild, like a 3 or 4 (basically right around tex-mex level of spice). Anyone else do this a decent amount and can give me a good sauce recipe? Yes I know there are a lot of recipes out there that I could choose from, wondering if anyone does a decent bit of this.

We do have a cash and carry, will check there. The oil is bought already from Target. Just bit the bullet and bought it. Guy I talked to at Costco said they were not getting any in this year. I feel he was full of shit.
Turkey has been dry brineing for a couple days now in the fridge and tomorrow I fry it!
Will for sure strain the oil and use it again.

That looks really good on the plate. I've not seen a Japanese curry before, and all I've ever made was Nepalese and Indian. Maybe Abe has something, he hooked me up with a fantastic green curry recipe.

Hell, the jap friends i do have do the same, just takes too long to prep a good curry sauce. I got the 5 pack and it's a lot, actually cheaper this way than if you went to an asian grocer (these are the extra large packs too so it's even huger than the ones you'll see at the store).
Still even with this i find i have to get the extra hot, cuz hot feels pretty mild and i really have to crock pot it for max flavor. Need lots of potatoes and carrots to give it that full body thickness.
I find of the asian curries this is the easiest, best one i can replicate. Indian/thai/malay just fuck it, i've given up trying, packaged or raw. (i even have all the spices for it too, have a nice indian/asian grocer a few miles out)

Favorite curry in my house is red or panang. It's pretty dang easy to get it all going. Take a Costco rotisserie chicken. De-bone it into pieces and throw in a skillet with some sesame oil. Add in a heapful of stir fry veggies, again from Costco. Big bad of frozen. Once that's all done up Set aside as you get your curry paste and coconut milk going. Combine all and let simmer for a while. Serve hot!
Another way to do the chicken is Tyson panko breaded chicken strips. Bake and then cut up. Use your favorite curry sauce or panda express bottled sauces with rice.

That's some seriously lazy curry. It takes about 10 minutes tops to clean some chicken thighs and cut up some fresh veggies, and if you're good with a knife plus use kitchen shears to clean the chicken (pro tip) it takes even less time.
Cooking the chicken in the curry paste first releases a lot of nice aroma and flavor from the curry paste before adding the veggies and coconut milk too.
Dammit Crone!

Lol.. I've done it your way too! It's way better but when cooking for 5 adults and a different dinner for the 2 kids, things tend toward the lazy side! (wife and 2 kids and me are living with family for a while)
Now I crave some curry and want to hear more curry recipes and techniques! Cook chicken in paste first with some sesame oil to activate it? Yum.

Can't argue with the basics.
I did a rosemary mash that I buttered the top of and then seared with a torch next to some chuck roast day before yesterday, and it was glorious.

All our potatoes are out of the ground, and they are fucking delicious. I know potatoes are cheap and easy to get, but home grown, damn are they good. We're eating potatoes every day, and my kids have yet to complain, they're loving them all. Mashed, roasted, deep fried, boiled with gravy, all kinds of ways. yum.
