Yeah, I like those roasters. Best turkey I ever had (I don't like bird) was deep fried. The owner of the company I worked for always fried two for our Christmas party. Surprisingly enough, first year at teh company I got stuck babysitting one.
I definitely love rib roast in a ceramic roaster though.

Dinner was excellent. She had the Jerk Shrimp in the photo (not our photo, no light for pics, AND my flash was tucked away pending tomorrow's return to the US of A), I had Jerk chicken. Both were great; left a little burn on the lips, just enough, not too spicy.
At our age, we don't do much "dessert'ing"
Plus, I think she's still saving herself for the right man. Here she is (picture from two nights ago? last night?) wishing, waiting for her ship to come in.

“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
^^^Deep Fried bird is all we do anymore when cooking turkey. Nothing else comes close to the goodness, IMO

I have a turkey breast roulade recipe I want to try becz my wife's family can't cook a whole turkey without drying it to crap (although they all claim it's tasty). But wife says there would be a palace revolution if we had thanksgiving and served a tasty breast rather than crappy dried out turkey so we can't try it. F*cking traditionalists! Viva la revolution!

Our family pretty much makes it's own traditions now. We have some Chinese people in our family, some Mexicans, and then our own family which are mutts, so the food could be anything. For Thanksgiving we often have fried turkey, but not always. And we have prime rib for Christmas. Not exactly traditional. But tasty.
I've seen too many videos of turkeys being fried and then exploding. I'm surprised you're not afraid of the whole Turkey IED thing.
I'm tired of the same old food every Thanksgiving. Even my brother in law's Cajun noodles for the holiday can't make up for the same old bad food.

Watch this video, Alton Brown goes over it pretty good on how to be careful. After watching the video click on the link for recipe.
I promise you'll never roast a turkey again.
