  1. Please God stop frying turkeys. I'm so sick of watching all these epic fail videos of these morons trying to fry a turkey. It's NOT worth the trouble. For all the extra trouble you go thru, It will not taste that much better. There are safer, and more effective methods to cook a turkey that will give you the same result.

  2. So much missing from this tutorial.
    1-Well away from house on flat surface
    2-pre measure oil amount frozen bird in water. Leaving minimal 3-5 inches from lid (donโ€™t come all the way up or it will overflow)
    3-fully thaw, THEN pat dry bird
    4- wear proper attire long pants, and leather shoes, do not stand too close to fryer when dropping bird in.
    5-set up your area
    -fire extinguisher
    -foil around gas line
    -bring oil up to temp prior frying
    -TURN GAS OFF when gently placing bird in oil
    -turn gas back on and monitor temperature
    6-turn gas off before evacuating bird from oil.

    Recommend watch turkey frying failures to understand what can happen when things go wrong.
    **Watch Alton Browns tutorial***

    Fried Turkey is quick and surprisingly delicious and worth the effort as long as care is taken.

  3. Best advice is to just get an indoor electric turkey fryer that doesnโ€™t use an open flame. Works like any other electric deep fryer and canโ€™t catch on fire. I LOVE my MasterBuilt XL turkey fryer. Bought one for myself after seeing my employer use one for years for the work Thanksgiving luncheon.
