Frank's tried, true and safe way to fry a turkey for Thanksgiving!
Tried and True Fried Turkey Recipe
Ingredients:
1- 30-quart aluminum turkey fryer stockpot 1- 6-gallon propane tank 3-5 gallons peanut oil 2 lbs. Hickory smoked bacon 1 turkey (12-15 lb. Average) 2 Tbsp. Frank Davis Poultry Seasoning 1 bottle Frank Davis Sprinkling Spice First, place the raw turkey (it can even still be in its wrapper) into your turkey fryer. Then begin adding tap water to the pot in measured amounts--quarts, half gallons, gallons, whatever. Then when you have the turkey completely covered with water (about 3 inches over the top of the bird is perfect), note how much water it took, remove the turkey, pour out the water, completely dry the pot, and refill the pot with the same premeasured amount of peanut oil. At this point place the pot of oil over your propane burner outside (do not ever deep fry a turkey inside or on a wooden deck unless you want to chance burning your house to the ground!) and heat it to 350 degrees. Here's a personal note from Frank on how to make frying a turkey cheaper! One last thing! Just so you'll know, Justin intended deep-frying a turkey to be a novelty, not an economically sound method of culinary artistry. First, even on sale, 5 gallons of peanut oil is going to cost you in the neighborhood of $28 to $32 (that's without ever seeing a turkey). Then add the gobbler to that, say, another $20.00 on sale, and you're approaching $50 bucks, a pricey dinner at anybody's standard. So lemme suggest that if you wanna do this, do it as a "Deep Fried Turkey Party." You get the turkey and have each couple you invite bring along a gallon of peanut oil as contribution. Now we're into something that's affordable! In fact, now we're "Naturally N'Awlins cheap!" BORROWED FROM WWLTV "THANKS!" |
