I just can't get over how it happens to so many people every fuckin year.

Yes it's probably too much oil.

Yes you should thaw the fuckin turkey first.

Yes you should probably do it outside so you at least only burn your own stupid ass and hopefully not the whole damn house

You're forgetting...

Yes you should have a tripod with a steel cable and a safety catch that allows you to lower the turkey into the oil slowly without the chance of it dropping suddenly.

Behold, ladies and gentlemen, children of all ages, citizens of the universe: THE TURKEY DERRICK!

I was pretty dissapointed too because I learned some good cooking information from him but he is a racist piece of shit and I will never support racist pieces of shit

The first time doing mine I was nervous, but I quickly realized most the problems are from people not using common sense.

Call me captain depth charge, because I'm reckless with dethawing. /j

Beer-can turkey gang, fried makes it far too greasy IMO

I'm in the 'turkey is overrated' gang and we usually make anything else for the holiday. Sometimes we just get a fuckton of Chinese American food same stuffed to the gills feel and way less work

One of my post-thanksgiving things: binge-watch deepfry turkey videos.

When is US thanksgiving this year?

Cook high heat - low time

Crispy outside, moist inside, and way less grease
