Common pot sizes shown in listings are 18‑quart and 30‑quart pots. Some combo kits add a smaller 10‑quart pot, and a few dual‑tank models list a total of 16 quarts made from two 8‑quart tanks.

Typical kits include a stockpot with lid, fryer basket, lift/handle hook, hose and regulator, burner stand, and a thermometer. Many kits also include extras like a poultry rack and a marinade injector.

30‑quart pots are described for frying whole turkeys. One listing specifically notes a 30‑quart pot is suitable for turkeys under 20 lb.

Most listings show propane-powered burners. A smaller number of cookers are electric (portable electric stoves).

Output varies widely across listings: low-output burners around 5,500 BTU; midrange setups totaling about 24,000 BTU (for example, two 12,000‑BTU burners); and high-output burners in the ~50,000–55,000 BTU range.

Pots are commonly aluminum, with some listings showing stainless steel pans/pots. Frames and stands are described as steel or iron, and at least one listing mentions a cast‑iron burner head.

Many kits include a hose and regulator. Some listings also note an electric or electronic ignitor/ignition feature.
