Hi,It can fit a 15 lb turkey but it would also depend on the shape of the bird, it would be best to limit it to 13 lb.Thank You!

I think that would be too big a bird to cook properly in this rotisserie. You would need a bigger size rotisserie for that size bird.

Sorry I haven't tried to cook a large bird just 5lb chickens and chicken thighs in the basket but those have turned out perfect moist and crispy and its so easy to clean every thing comes apart and fits in the dish washer.

This unit does not fry a turkey. The large fryer will do 12lbs and the xxl will do 14 lbs

You probably could, but this model doesn't come with the extra turkey strainer that you can lower into the pot.

You should. It is just a rack to hold the turkey. The idea is to hold the turkey cavity open letting more heat get in thus faster cooking.

this pot is large enough to roast a 15-16 lb. turkey; so, yes it should be large enough for even the largest chicken you can buy. I've roasted 3 smaller chickens at one time in this pot. for only one chicken, i use a smaller version. the 117 i use mainly for turkeys, and it makes great turkeys.

I've cooked whole chickens, beef and pork roasts in the pressure cooker all weighing over 3 lbs. Just make sure it doesn't fill the pan more than 2/3 full to allow it to steam. I recently cooked a turkey breast weighing over 5 lbs., however I did have to remove the backbone before I could fit it in the pressure cooker. Since I slow cooked the turkey breast instead of pressure cooking it, I didn't have to worry about how full it was. I came out juicy and tender. Soo good!

I have never done it, but I'm sure you could do it. Just be sure it is very stable on the propane burner. Sure would not want it to slip off. There is certainly enough heat to fry your turkey.

If you are able to put the cover on then I would. I usually have a turkey too big for the cover so I have to put it in a bag. I don't add water when I cook a turkey but use beef broth if I am cooking a roast.

Its fairly large so i would think so, but i have never put a turkey in it. Nice roaster...lid also makes a pan

I cooked a 2.5 lb roast however, it could accommodate a much larger roast. You just need to be careful the roast does not touch the burner elements in the back of the unit.

Yes, it can handle a 14-pound turkey. The lid is domed and the inside is spacious. You will need to monitor the temperature of the grill, but certainly feasible. Yummy!

I've read that people have cooked a 16lb Turkey on it. https://store.weber.com/accessories/category/cook/cookware/1100

The commonly found small turkey breast should be fine in the cooker, though I have never used my cooker for a Turkey breast. Actually you could fit two breast in the cooker at one time. Phil

I don't know as I ahve not cooked a turkey in it. It looks like a 20-23 lb turkey would work. I suggewst that you contact the Hamilton Beach customer service to get a accurate figure.

Definitely large enough for a 15lb turkey, although you may want a v-shaped rack to hold the bird.

I cooked a 26 pound turkey and it was tight. I don't think it will hold a 45lb. turkey and personally I would cook 2 smaller turkeys because they taste much better.

I haven't actually put a 15 gallon pot on the unit. But assuming a diameter of approximately 15 inches, yes it should take the weight just fine. If the bottom is the thin gauge them at high setting it should be used only for boiling water because it will scorch anything else it's on the bottom. It's that powerful.
