How much oil do I use for a 16/18 lb Butterball?

I use approx. 2 1/2 gal of peanut oil to bring the oil to the fill line inside the oil tub. the use of a wireless thermometer is the best thing to use for the proper cooking temp of the turkey. This cooker works GREAT and no chance of fires.

I use a small amount of butter. Small amount of oil works well. Dry not so much.

If using synthetic two stroke oil that is appropriate. I would recommend regular oil for break in at a 32:1 ratio for break in( about a half gallon of gas burned) to make sure the rings seat properly. Mine is a real gem and am very happy with its performance.

You use approximately 2 quarts. There is a fill line, but you need to remember that whatever food you put in the basket will displace the oil so don't add too much or it will spill over. We strain the oil and reuse it several times.

I use two scoops of oil (using the oil scoop that came with it) and one scoop of WHITE popcorn (using the popcorn scoop that came with it)

In the water reservoir and as much as you need. If i'm using one oil,I usually use one or two drops. Multiple oils , I use 2 drops of each.

Hi Maggie, you may have enough with a lb of jimmies. I usually rather have left over than possibly be short so maybe buy a 16 oz and the a smaller one just in case if they sell it. If you know you will use these jimmies again, then just go with 2 and use the leftovers on other baked goods.

Hello, I'd say maybe 5-6 oz. max. Suppose depends upon the recipe and how it expands. Make sure you leave plenty of room for batter to raise. I believe I did 1/2 C. give or take an extra dollop of batter. A good sturdy pan.

I don't know what the right oil to use is but I used heavy duty gear oil. Mine leaks too but I don't use it enough to worry about. For the price, I'm quite happy with it.

Hello, we generally recommend to start with 1 tbsp per 4 fl. oz. and then adjust as necessary. Thanks!

I don't measure the amount of oil. I put a little on either side of the spinning blades. I would guesstimate about 2 TBs. Make sure you turn the machine off as soon as the poppings starts and then move the pan/cover away from the heating elements.

The rule of thumb is 1 tsp. (level) for each 8 oz. cup and 1 tsp. for the pot. So you should use 7 tsp. for your 48 oz. pot. This should work just fine. The grind of the tea used is a consideration also. If finely ground 1 level tsp. is fine. If roughly ground you may want to use a little more but this teaball should be more than adequate for whatever grind you use.

I used this brand - Husqvarna 610000155 50:1 XP 2-Cycle Oil 1-Gallon Mix, 2.6-Ounce. Put one 2.6 oz bottle of oil to 1 gallon of gasoline. So you should have a separate gas container for your mixed gas/oil to use. You con't have to buy Husqvarna brand but it should be 2-Cycle Oil for chain saws or weed eaters.

I bought 4 Qts, but it didn't take all of it. Do not overfill! What I do is empty into oil tray then pour the old oil into a gallon milk container to see how much came out. I thinks it was about 3 Qts.
