Are you looking for a source or tips? I don't know anyone that sells fried turkey in the area. I've been frying my own for 20 years without issues. I do recommend doing a smaller bird and getting a large single container of oil (can't remember how much it holds) someplace like bjs. It makes it much easier to pour off and save for reuse. It can be used many times as long as you store it out of the sun.

For safety, shut the burner off when you submerge or remove the turkey. Also, use the displacement of water from the turkey (before you unwrap it) to determine how much oil you should use.
