HOW TO PROPERLY DEEP FRY A TURKEY

STEP 1 - If a fill line is stamped on the pot then STEP 1 is not needed. Fill the pot with oil to the fill line and go to STEP 2. If there is no stamped line, place thawed turkey, up to 18 lbs (8kg) MAX size, into basket and lower turkey into empty pot. Fill pot with water until the butt of the turkey is covered. There must be 3 in (8cm) between this water level & the top of the pot. Remove the turkey from the pot allowing all water to drain from the turkey. Once turkey has been removed, mark the waterline. Empty the water from the pot and fill with oil up to the marked line.

STEP 2 - Insure that turkey is completely thawed and free of excess water and ice. Inject turkey with a marinade of your choice. Cover the outside of turkey with cajun dry rub reasoning. Replace the turkey in basket with legs pointing up. Ignite burner (see page 9) and bring oil temperature to 350°F (177°C). Turn the burner off before placing the turkey into oil. Wearing cooking gloves, and being sure to stay away from hot steam, lower the turkey into the oil very slowly and cover with lid. Re-light the burner. Using the thermometer keep the oil temperature at 350°F (177°C). Cook turkey for 3 minutes per pound and then add 5 minutes to total cooking time. Turkey may float before cooking time is complete. Continue cooking turkey for the total amount of time calculated. When cooking is complete, turn burner OFF and remove food slowly.
