Only oils that have high smoke points should be used. Such oils include peanut, refined canola, corn oil and sunflower. Canola oil is low in saturated fats and would be appropriate to combine with peanut oil if fat and cholesterol are a concern.

My family has done this for years..
You use peanut oil..and make sure you do it outside on a level surface and aways from the house..because it may smoke or boil over..and keep the little ones away..
you can also get an injector kit to flavor the turkey..YOU will not be sorry you did this..
there won't be any left..lol
edit: just thought of something else..Make very sure that Turkey is very dry on the outside...pat it will a paper towel...

About frying a turkey. When you buy a turkey fryer they should have oil to use for the fryer with the accessories that are meant for the fryer. That is how it is displayed where i work. But i'm sure you could use any type of oil. Check the direction booklet that comes with the fryer to be sure.
Fried turkey really taste great.

Use refined canola, safflower or sunflower oil made for high heat. These are very healthy oils. Avoid vegetable and corn oil at all costs. I also do not recommend peanut oil. I eat organic food and am very picky about my oils, so you can trust me on this.

You cannot fry a whole turkey. I assume you mean you are going to joint it and fry the portions? Even then you will need to fry it a little first, then roast (bake) it after to ensure it is cooked.
The best way to do this is use part veg oil part butter (the oil stops the butter fom burning), fry on both side untill browned, than bake in oven until juices run clear - probably at least 30 minutes. (otherwise you risk food poisoning!!).

Peanut oil, and season the outside and underneath the skin to infuse the flavor in the turkey( be careful it is very dangerous, make sure it is dry)

I believe peanut is the oil of choice. They sell huge containers of it at WalMart.

Well, I think you can only use peanut oil. My uncle tried another oil once and it wasn't a pretty sight.
