my attempt at giving an informational video on how to properly deep fry a turkey. my video makes no claim of any issues you may have and or make me liable for you burning down your house or any bodily harm

a few key points. NEVER do this in your house or in a confined area. Do it OUT DOORS.
Turn OFF the flame before you submerge the bird, NO FLAME NO FIRE
Do NOT use a frozen bird, if it you purchased it frozen make sure you defrost it thoroughly
Make sure the bird is DRY, use paper towel to dry it off, no water, no boiling splatter.

350 degrees,
3.5 min per LB from the time you submerge the bird
Check internal temp to ensure the bird is cooked before you consume

  • Your video will help me fry my turkey for the first time today. Thank you so much for the step by step process.

  • @redparkme thanks for the feedback! how did yours come out? i tried a new brine this year a few weeks ago to test before today and it came out amazing!!

  • Thanks Pete for the good information. I'm going to try to deep-fried my turkey this Thanksgiving.

  • @Buddy69Love Thanks! let me know how it comes out. remember to turn that flame off before putting in bird and temper it in, don't rush it if it bubbles over the heat of the burner will catch fire.

  • How long do you let the turkey rest before you carve? i often hear with turkey that are roasted that you rest them the same time as you cook them (you keep them covered with al-foil in a warm place).

  • @petepuma69 Hey Pete, I didn't use my outdoor fryer due to the rain showers. I had a backup plan my new Butterball Fryer. The turkey was so finger licking good. I hope you had a great & safe Thanksgiving. Bud

  • Great Video! Looking forward to eating it again next year!
