in Char-Broil Oil-less Turkey “Fryer” on The Food Geek
Well - since you haven't cooked on one, haven't tasted food from one and are pretty darn certain you are absolutely right. about your opinion....then I guess reading the comments from hundreds of folks who are pretty darned happy with a cooker that doesn't require pre-heating, allows you to put a rub on the skin and not wash off. Cooks with infrared energy - no air needed by the way to conduct that heat - so it does hit all the surfaces in a way that has profound cooking impact on the meat and proteins, thus you can get a crisp skin 'like' fried without the oil. And the meat stays moist. Oh and since you can also cook whole chickens, chicken parts (with a shelf either purchased or home-made) pork butt, leg of lamb, duck, goose, prime rib, meat loaf, stuffed peppers, trout, salmon, kebobs, corn, sausages, and one guy even cooked some bread in it (Yeah - I know an enthusiast who obviously hadn't read your column so he didn't know he shouldn't use it more than once a year.) And by the way...did you know that people actually eat turkey a couple times a year besides thanksgiving?
So I am not unbiased, I write the news letter and web log called Sizzle on the Grill and Char-Broil sponsors it. But sheese Man...before you trounce all over something from a position of judgement, doncha think you ought to try it? Check out the user comments here - some good, some bad, and such...http://sizzleonthegrill.com/user-forums/index.php?action=collapse;c=4;sa=collapse;#4
Meanwhile - happy thanksgiving. It's just food and it's all about enjoying it! gimmie a call sometime, I'll Fry you a turkey!

For those who continue to use their device throughout the year, all well and good. That makes it another kind of grill, and there's no such thing as too many grills, and not everyone has a rotisserie for the grill, and fewer people have rotisseries for their oven, so having a Big Easy could certainly fill a niche in your cooking life.
It's still not frying, though.
